Tips on tips:- How much to give the postie and the milkman
Comments

Our postman really is super- I've had recorded parcels for me arrive when nobody is home and he has actually taken them to my Dad's work to get a signature for them!:D
Gave him £5 last year but this year have got him some wine (£4 instead of £8).
I buy milk from sainsburys and don't give the binmen anything- never really occured to me. Not sure if we even have the same ones or if its different ones each week!0 -
Our postie is on a good one with his job. He pops back home for beakfast, then tea then lunch! We don't get our post till 1 or 2 on a normal day and it's only a village and thats his only round!
No tip for him I am afraid. Only stop being a jobsworth and get on with it!0 -
We get our milk from the supermarket, the bin men are here at the crack of dawn and always insist on leaving empty bins at the front of the drive-way (sooo annoying
). Our postie is always moaning and complaining and very miserable. We'll be giving any money we would have given out to charity. Wins since 2009 = £17,600MANY THANKS TO ALL OPS0
