Baksheesh/Tipping
This is part of everyday life in Egypt. Many locals, probably
the majority, live on or below the breadline. Tipping can
make a massive difference to the life of a family. Tip for
any service you receive if you are happy with it. Tip with
1LE, 5LE and 10LE notes depending on the type of service
you have had. Just bear in mind as an example that a headteacher
here earns around 50 English pounds per month!!!!
