I hope the OP went out and splurged on something special for herself. Wish someone would give me a 1K tip

I do hope Anabella is enjoying her tip and I know the side discussion here is nothing to do with Anabella and wishing her well and sharing in her happiness.

Yea.. but no chance me getting one I'm afraid

I think paying more than $10.00 for a haircut is idiotic. Or paying 30 grand for a vehicle, or 300,000 for a house or $50 for dinner, or $30 a month (or more) for TV, I could go on...

Like Ray said. Some people earn that a minute in interest alone. It is like 10 or 100 to them.

I think it was really nice that she gave that much to Anabella For all we know, she considers Anabella part of the poor and struggling!

Keep your hair on Ray "alright we might see another change later", I'm sure none of us are putting Anna down as such.

A couple I know in the UK are hairdressers.
They had some famous clients, including U2, and some other bands.
Was not unusual for them to get big tips, well into hundreds of pounds per haircut.
I suppose if they have the money some people tip big.

Wish I could. I have little fantasies about how I could improve world health.

And yours is silly in my eyes and my response was my response. I see you can dish it out but can't take.

As for being obscene, who knows exactly how much the bill was the extensions. Might have been only 25% of the total bill and just what, other than extensions was provided to the client.
