I have a friend who knows I'm addicted to coffee and regularly brings me a cup. It's $3-4 but it means a lot to me because he paid attention to my likes. It's not about how much it costs, it's the thought.
I doubt any hotel would think twice about someone walking through the lobby w a gift bag.
Also, I have seen some ladies sites that say gift bags are welcome. Do they attract attention when walking through the lobby? I'm assuming that as long as they do not say "Thank you for the BBBJ" then they should be fine?
I understand fully that gifts or tips are not required but a nice way of saying thank you to the lady. My question is, should they be proportional to the date amount? I mean would a $25 gift card be a slap in the face?

....if you spent $1000 on a dinner date (for example) and then gave her a $25 gift card. I'd personally still be pleased as a peach. And about gift bags etc I've never had a friend stopped because he was bringing along bags from Nordstrom's and Macy's with him. I mean ... people do go shopping lol.

What about tips?
Are tips appropriate for the ladies, (especially if the encounter was very good).
So, on a $200 per hour (1 hour encounter), is a $25.00 tip decent, or should it
be more? I want to show appreciation, but don't want to be regarded as a
cheapskate either, as I might like to see the lady again for another encounter.
I have seen some postings on BP wherein the ladies have stated "tips very much
appreciated".
What about bringing food, beverages or snacks? (assuming one is on a 2-hour or
longer visit). Is this appropriate? This assumes most of the ladies work several
men via different appointments and don't get out of their hotel rooms to eat.
I just add the tip to the donation before things get started so I don't have to fool with my wallet later before we go our separate ways. Whether you tip $25 or 100, of course it's appropriate unless you had a bad time.
Watch what you assume about ladies being too busy to leave their rooms to eat. In fact, don't think about that at all. It's none of your business and if you've done your research you shouldn't have to worry about a thing. I wouldn't bring consumables without asking the lady first, especially when meeting for the first time. Particularly open or ready to eat consumables. If I'm stopping at the store on the way to see someone, I'll often ask if they need anything and leave it up to them. They usually decline.
Excellent reply! I personally love white wine and sharing it with my date. Since I am a night person I do think about him also and if his plane will get in late etc. It is not important if we go out to eat, if we do, I appreciate it and there is no charge for my time.
Yet, often plans change etc, so I do my back plan lol. I will go get a Bottle of Wine, I will bring the Peel and Eat shrimp with Cocktail Sauce, maybe a bit of Smoke Peppered Salmon already cooked and ready to eat with some crackers, Black Olives or and Avocado's so he will not Famished as the evening wears on...........There is always room service. Yet, I feel we can give a special extra touch too.. A date, is a Date............Mutual respect...........
To me it is just common since.............Kelley White
