How much is enough: Holiday Tipping Guide

Everyone wants to be a good tipper, but how much is enough?  Does the postal carrier really need a tip?  From your dog groomer to the newspaper delivery service, Kiplinger’s sets the rules – and even gives advice on overtipping. Some rules include:

·         Give the tip in person: Forget PayPal being an option!
·         Don’t give a cash tip to your doctor or mail carrier: One’s a professional; the other is not allowed to take cash.
·         Make a list: The people who make your life easier should be at the top. Consult the list to stay on track with your set budget.
