It depends...sometimes it is easier to tip daily if there are several people involved. If it is the holiday season, which we often travel, we may tip earlier so that the $$ can help before Christmas. Otherwise, along with cash, we generally share our food or drink, depending on what they may want...with our housekeepers, gardeners and other staff. Being from a small rather "country" state, we were brought up to share what we have. So, we are very comfortable with always sharing drinks, food, fruit, etc... with the staff of the resort. It's just the way we roll here in our likkle state. My grandad was a Methodist minister here and in Virginia...food was a staple that was shared with others. SO, I guess I am just continuing the old traditions of West Virginia.

I guess everyone has their own ways of giving. They are all good as long as we give back to others. I feel blessed to be able to travel and I sure want others to benefit As one of my dear friends said, "Jamaica has been good to me" ....Yeah mon, it has been good to me too.......so let me give back!
