Chips As Tips

When giving a Chip as a Tip, there are a few rules. Tipping your cocktail server on the casino floor with a chip is totally acceptable- IF the chip is from the casino she is working in!!! Tipping your server in a restaurant that is in a casino with chips is "OK," but not the preferred form of currency. BUT, if this chip is a $1-$5 chip from a casino across town... Don't be lame- fork over some cold hard cash!
