[quote=Anonymous]Now that I am older and make plenty of money I tend to tip 25% of the bill as a minimum at restaurants. The only time I don't do that is when the auto gratuity kicks in then I tend to leave it whatever was already taken out (Maybe I should add the extra money in as it is probably not the servers fault that the establishment auto gratuities a bill for parties larger than 5 or 6. My thought is they should not take away my ability to determine the tip at groups of 6 or less and I am usually okay with them saving me the extra bit of $$$ by not trusting me.)

For my first massage I got a 1 hour couples massage with my wife and tipped $40 after reading through the 1st page or two of this site. (Thanks)

Because I signed up for a large block of massages I get a discounted rate and figured that a 20% tip on the full rate was correct. Was not sure if this was about right as I don't want to be perceived as cheap and I appreciate that the therapist has too touch most of my body. I paid for my massages with a credit card and tipped in cash.

The therapists seemed to light up when I tipped them so I am guessing that my amount was acceptable.

Many of my friends and colleagues are tight wad cheap curmudgeons and they think I am too generous. Some of them have crazy money and make me look like a destitute street bum in comparison by scale. I criticize them frequently for being so stingy and ask that they take on a more generous stance to help out those hard working folks who service them well. I have converted a few and reset their thinking to be more giving and sharing.
