Will you tip the postie for Christmas?

[pattricia]

I certainly will. Also tip the paperboy. Both of them got through to my house during the thick snow.

When living in Ireland, the known tip for the Postie was €50

When i get my post before 3pm, that'll be the day ill tip 'em.

our postie is a real gem.

always goes out of her way to be polite and helpful.

calls us by first name, which might not sound much, but it always seems really freindly.

knows our routine, so knows if we should be in when delivering parcels and goes out of her way to deliver stuff even if it means coming back later.

goes the extra mile to do her job.

thanks for the reminder to tip.

That sounds like Chantelle

 

The best post woman ever we are blessed to have her, And yes she always stops for a chat and pet our dog Well worth a tip

a couple of years ago one of the handsworth posties was caught with thousands of letters he'd stolen from the area and not delivered. we'd suffered for years with missing mail, all we ever got was 6 free 1st class stamps every time we complained. dragged on for ages..

so they can **** off. :-)

No I won't, not because I'm mean but because I never see him/her. The post comes when we are out at work. I would imagine this is the same in a lot of households.

 

Tipped the hairdresser for Christmas though.

The one I tip is the paper boy (girl) unfortunatley it costs me a forune as there are three of them one for star, one for early paper and one for the Sundays.

I may do because while the postman in getting through I am never going to run out of those red elastic bands he keeps leaving for me on the path.

She used to be my post lady and my dog, Max would hear her coming and wait for her at the gate get all excited (she even has a picture of my boy on her phone). Still if we see her about Max drags me over to her goes all giddy like a puppy and nearly wags his tail off.

 

Since Chantelle left Max now hates the postman and I have had to put a post box up so the postman doesn't come into my garden so chances of seeing him to give him a tip are slim.
