Should I tip in Costa Rica?

You will hear many different theories on tipping in Costa Rica, but you can already guess that mine is right LOL. I only say that jokingly, because I have always been known to be a good tipper. I got that fabulous trait from my father, who would always OVER tip when service was good. He even tips the mailman and garbage men at Christmas.

It is truly AMAZING how many people are stepping up and sponsoring an entire food charity drive. Rich Coast Vacations and their wonderful clients pulled together to raise enough money to feed over 100 families for a week. Until you are out in the local neighborhoods and see all the people that are in need of food and supplies you don’t realize what impact you are having on their lives.  They are of course extremely thankful to receive the help but since we are all animal lovers we also give them dog or cat food if they need it.  Nowhere have we heard about this happening but from the looks on the peoples faces when they get food for their pets as well means that it is all worth it. 

Please continue to donate.  Although a handful of people have come down on the first flights from North America there are still basically no tourists so we are in for the long haul.  No amount is too small.  Send donations to PayPal or Zelle account michael@tanktopsflipflops.com.  THANK YOU.
