Tipping

i haven't yet sold turnips in another town, but once i do, i'm going to make sure to tip at least 10%.

if someone is giving me a villager for free, i feel the need to leave a thank-you gift behind, whether they ask for it or not. bells, perfect fruit... anything nice.
 
I tip 10% when I sell turnips, with the occasional perfect fruit basket.
I tipped my friend 1 million for letting me sell turnips. She is a TTer and my turnip price was high so she let me come back and forth :D I made 8 million but I added a little extra. So in profit I made around 6.5 million bells.
 
I've never sold turnips in a different town, and I haven't had many chances to tip. The only time I remember tipping was a Jacob's Ladder for one person (though I forget why that was.)
 
When I was really big on turnips back when the game came out, I used to drop 2 bags of 99K per trip to Re-Tail. And I sold locker fulls.
 
I hosted for turnips a couple of times through reddit, and about half the visitors tipped, someone stole some hybrids (wanker) and one person donated a couple of fossils to my museum. It was quite interesting. I always tip the last amount my turnips sold for (like the last pocketful which is normally around 500k) but I usually try not to bring too many with me as it's a colossal time sink.
 
I tip depending on the service.

If it's turnip day, and the price is 500+ I tip 1 mil per locker.

If someone is giving me a free high demand villager, I tip 1 mil.

If someone let's me into their town to fish, I tip generously depending on how long I'm there. (Generally 500k for every 30 minutes.)

If someone lets me stop by to Redd's I tip 50k.

If someone helps me out when I need a petition signed, I tip 50k.

(50k is my run-of-the-mill tip I do for simple small free services others provide)

I have a lot of money, so I just generally throw it around. I don't mind paying extra for a person's generosity.

I've never tried turnips. If I'm selling perfect fruit then I do it in my second town. I mostly use my second town for signatures and katie now too...but if I did go to someone's town to do either I usually brought perfect fruit as a thank you.
 
I do sometimes. It really just depends on my mood.
