Annual & Holiday Tipping
|
by Alexis Jeffries
MONEY Magazine - Money Poll |
It's an annual dilemma: What's an appropriate holiday tip for the people who serve you throughout the year? Etiquette expert Peggy Post recommends a gift of a week's to a month's pay for fulltime help like a nanny; and the cost of at least one visit for people who provide a regular, less frequent service, such as a hairstylist. But you probably also want to keep in line with what your neighbors arc giving so you don't look like a tibrhtwad. In a MONEY poll, readers owned up to the tipping sums below; Post says they are suitably generous. |
