suziewoozie, like you I'm a tipper, though sodapop's view is a legitimate one, and no need to take any offence over it.
My closest friend and I have holidayed in some very poor countries, she is very much an 'anti tipper' and I can appreciate all the reasons why. It dosent stop me tipping though, nor her calling me Mrs Philanthropic all during the holiday.
We still love one another to bits though.
The language she used was sneering. It’s perfectly possible to criticise tipping without using the phrase she did or suggest tippers don’t give to charity. And particularly as no tipper in the thread had sneered at non tippers. I won’t change my mind on this so there’s no,point really in discussing it further.
