SAME WITH ME
i put it down to most customers paying by standing orders or BACS so never really see them.
and i think some people dont really tip until Xmas is right on top of them

£6 today but i finished early.

down a lot on tips this year.due to recession i reckon as well as me putting up prices for the 3 rd year running and turning up in a sports car to collect so my customers know i have 2 vehicles!! ;D ;D ;D ;D

i reckon quite a few of my customers are struggling a bit due to higher cost of living and wages not keeping pace with it.

my tips currently stands at £212 and a tin of choccie biscuits!! ;D ;D ;D


better than nothing i suppose!
