    OMG I had never actually thought about tipping them. I have always got nice ones too and they always bring it uspstairs for me to the kitchen. I think I might put something aside when I have my big Christmas delivery as a big Thank you :)

    Yes - think I'll make it a Christmas thing too if I get the same guy every week.

    Hi all, although I dont have my shopping delivered, I do deliver Pizza's on the weeekends and although tips are not expected, 50p - £1 can make alot of difference to my overall wage. I totally understand people not tipping though, its their choice...:rolleyes:
    :cool:

    I don't think tesco would approve of them receiving tips but if you are pleased with the service they would appreciate you letting them know, you could write or fill in a report slip at customer services next time you are in.

    I always give a tip to the pizza delivery man. usually just a "Keep the change" gesture :)

    I've never even thought of tipping a Tesco/Asda delivery driver........there could be a clause in their contract about accepting cash etc.

    Just started getting shopping delivered and it was only once the guy had gone that I wondered if I should have tipped him? What do you do?

    Would you tip the bin men, the postman, the parcel courier ? Any difference ?

    Courier - if you're talking about my ups driver, I'd tip him everytime he came, just for gracing my doorstep, he's gorgeous and lovely :D :rotfl:
