Some custys who you invest a bit of time in throughout the year, then give you nothing at Christmas....dump them? 

[Stoots]

Im still at zero... that is £0 in tips.

Last year was under 20 quid so im not sure if i will get off the mark or not, cant see it to be honest.

[Blackadder]

I’m doing ok so far, seems to come where you least expect it, the terraced house is a lot more generous than the detached house!

[duncan h]

bad year for tips, then a customer offers me a fiver and I say "it doesn't matter" normally they then say "no take it" she didn't lol

[P @ F]

It is getting worse every year , i have had wine and chocs and odd fivers off my run of the mill work ,but last week i did a run of 13 half million quid houses and not a feckin orange or nut in sight !

Ive all but given up on counting my tips, since ive switched. I think that they think we have it too easy now for the money we/i charge 

[zesty]

Used to get 100’s in tips, but now it’s all online payments, get about £50!

[֍Winp®oClean֍]

Had my best ever tips this week one was never to eat yellow snow and the other not to count my change over a grate!!

[P @ F]

For me its not about tips though , im just happy to have their custom , and if you believe that you suck rod 

[AuRavelling79]

£5 so far - a £3 and a £2.

Don't think I've ever had much more than £100 in a season and don't think I've had much less than £90 either.

[jo5hm4n]

I'm getting around £50 in tips a week on average, yesterday about £30 alone.  Either i am doing something right or y'all are doing something wrong lol 

Had about half a dozen crimbo cards already given too me too.  Need to find somewhere to put them.  Anyone got ideas.  Maybe i could use them for the log burner

Ive not tried it myself,  but one dayi will.
A friend i know,  when trad working  as well would buy a bottle of wine and a wine box carrier for it. One if those carriers where you can put more bottles in and pretend or let others think that a customer gave it to him.   Clever, really because it worked amazingly well for him

Sounds like a bit of a pikey thing to do.

Don't worry about it Nathan if your happier having switched then that's all that counts, wouldn't let a few homophobes get you down. lol.

[dazmond]

a bottle of rose wine, a box of chocolates plus £114 up to now but i should get a lot more in the next 2 weeks before xmas.i usually get £400-£500 every year and have done for years now but times are changing with more electronic payments and less and less collecting.

Now now Sean, just because i turned down your advances in that club the other night, theres no need for this   

[Stoots]

I'm off the mark. £7 tip this morning!

Dumped 2 custys so I'm down overall but nevermind.

[alank]

Lot less than in the old days but I don't mind as we spend a lot less time collecting due to electronic payments I only collect one evening and one Saturday per month now, saving time and diesel. The majority of my customers are out when we clean so rarely see them anyway . If any customers do offer a tip this is given to my daughter who works with me. When I wish my customers a merry Christmas I mean it, it's not said in hope of getting a tip

[Gringo]

Well done Adam hope you can push on to the £20 mark now onwards and upwards
