I need Imput
Alright fellow bloggers I am turning to you for advice. As my previous post stated, I won a free massage..but the problem is how much should I tip? I don't want to be cheap, but I also don't want to look like the dumb kid who tips way too much. Also I believe that my charm should be considered...I mean they are lucky to have me as a client. Any help will be appreciated!

Okay, Rocky, I've done some research. Here is what I found from my survey of two massage goers.
Me: Hey you've had a massage before. How much, if any, do you tip?
Co-worker J: I wouldn't be a good person to ask. My masseuse is a good friend of mine, so my tips are, "don't take wooden nickels."
Other co-worker J: I figure $50 an hour is already good enough, but I think my husband gave the masseuse five or ten dollars.
Co-worker J: Ya goin' to see the masseuse are ya?
Me: No, I have a friend who won a free massage.
Co-worker J: Oh, in that case, I'd give five or ten dollars.
Other Co-worker J: Yeah, ten if it's good.
Me: Okay, thanks.

If you're as charming as you say (and that I don't doubt), then I think you should just ask her, "So, how much does a person tip for a free massage, anyway?". Then, when she says X dollars, you say, "Does that include dinner?". Then you wink, flash the old Rocky grin and:
A) Enjoy your dinner (after getting more input from fellow bloggers).
or
B) Nurse your wounded ego with the rest of us losers.
Good Luck, kid. (Oh, and I guess this only applies to masseuses and not masseurs).
