£150 in cash, £10 Argos Gift Voucher, 2 bottles of red wine, oh a bottle of Moet & Chandon.

The only way to get decent tips is to go collecting on a regular basis & build up a friendship with your customers. I often take my 2 girls collecting with me, my customers love them & ask where they are if they don't come with me.

Wonder how much you guys get who operate a SAE scheme, not many I bet.

We did well today, one lady (I charge her 8.50) gave us a 20 quid note and told us to keep the change.  Two further tips of five quid and two bottles of wine from two other customers.

So that's about 60 to 70 quid, four bottles of wine, three lots of chocolates and a partridge in a pear tree.

Don't forget....you have to declare ALL your tips, including "in kind" -wine, mince pies, etc - estimate the value and add it on to your self assessment form ::)

Cheers,

Always refused tips ask them to pass it on to someone who needs it, why buy my own work.
