Fed up with little if no tips this last two weeks,so after every clean for the last couple of weeks I've been adding £3 to the bill for my tips ,so I then get a tip off everyone,and with 500 accounts this is now working very well.

I'd rather have decent prices all year round then praying on tips once a year. Tips  get less each year as people feel the financial pinch with deflation in relation to wage decreases and cost of living escalating.

Ive had £878.00 in tips so far this winter, 14 bottles of jubbly, a box of Christmas crackers, 7 tins of Quality Street, a couple of dead turkeys, 4 boxes of Tesco’s Mince pies, 4 gallons of diesel, a second hand lawn-mower and  a jar of 3” nails.

i may pop in and buy one of these with my tips  :-\

There's a garage in sunningdale called super Ventura that sells motors like that.
Iv seen Bugatti veyrons, pagani zondas and koenigseggs in there a few times.
If only I could get through 35-40 houses in sunningdale/Virginia water a day, I might be able to afford one.
Where's that link for the head torch again...

I thought he was winding me up when Frank told me he was doing this, until I popped over to see him on Tuesday and saw him do it!!!

Popped a slip through someone door, with a "+£3 (Xmas) " next to the price, I was in shock...

I have a customer who has them cleared 6 x a year. Always plenty in them too.
