    Do people not understand the concept of search? This is the 4th thread about the same topic. I'm getting tired of merging them.

    Apols, no real need to stress, Was a simple question, granted a search would have been the best practice.

    Bear in mind for future.

    Im unsure what to do now, Would you suggest just changing Sterling into Peso or what?!?!?!?

    I sure as hell am not changing Sterling to dollars just to tip and also change sterling into Peso to spend.....

    Think i should prob just take either Dollar or Peso.

    UK Pound is worth 18.21 peso
    UK pound is worth $1.57

    Any ideas people

    i'm just doing the peso, keep everything simple. Money is money if they accept many forms i'm just gonna take the path of least resistance.

    Hell yeah,

    Im sure they will accept a tip in Peso?

    Failing that may just change couple hundred sterling for US dollars worst ways.

    Cheers

    The reason we tip in US is because they can exchange it for a much better rate locally than we can, psychologically it seems like a much much bigger tip. my opinion anyways

    Then you do not understand the power of tipping in cancun. You will soon learn when your waiting an hour for a drink.

    So at Oasis, it's hard to get drinks from the swim-up pool or just regular bars without handing out a tip every time?

    Same thing in the clubs?

    I don't mind tipping, but I will be there for 5 nights and I don't want to be tipping each drink if I am going to be partying all day. No point of going all-inclusive if thats the case!

    Tip big early, more than likely, they'll remember you.

    By this you mean, first day at the Oasis, hand the bartender over $20 tip. Am I good for the day or am I good for the week?

    The clubs I assume are the same as it is in the US. If you want good drinks, tip upfront and they will hook you up. The part that is confusing to me is the resort. I've been to breezes before in the Bahamas and you could ask them for a cup full of rum and they had no problem giving you it. I tried to tip a couple of times but they said they weren't allowed to take it, so I am a little unsure how it works in Cancun.
