  • Tip Jar

    Anybody have a tip jar for their home bar? Do you have a humorous or pithy saying next to it that will encourage people to cough up?

    Okay. The wife and I finally came up with a saying in time for our "pool and beer" night on Friday...

    The drink is free but not for me,
    The liquor store hates when I beg.
    This tip jar helps restock the bar,
    And get more beer for the keg.

      Thats good. I have often thought about throwing a tip jar next my kegerator too. I work at a bar and we used to have a sign next to the tip jar that said "If you fear change, leave it here."

        lol, I like that one.

        Yeah, I figure... "I'm not the only one who drinks it - why should I be the only one who pays for it?"

            I too, now us the "Tip Jar". Although the only thing it seems to gather are laughs. I don't really mind buying the beer as I do drink most of it. Most my friends drink Miller Lite, and I keep Amber Bock on tap. So they have to dink what I drink. But like I tell them it my tapper, so get over it! I do like the poem I might have to use that one. Thanks guys

            It only takes one beer to get drunk, I just can not remember if it is number 12 or 13.

              Tip jar

              When we get together to play cards at my house, I have a jar beside the kegerator and politely ask the boys to just put in there what they think they would have spent to bring beer to the game. I'm not the "beer police" monitoring how much they put in vs. how much they drink, but it does help cut the cost of the keg.

                The first one's on me
                for you to enjoy free
                but the beer next time
                is on your precious dime
                so for free beer, please don't beg
                your dollar helps fill the keg!

                    I don't keep a tip jar, I don't mind paying. I also don't mind the favor being returned once in a while.

                      I hear you. Many times they just bring some snacks, stuff for the grill, ect.

                        Must live in the Twilight Zone, everyone I know always brings their own beer and snacks. Plus, several have kegerators which are always full and open for use as a change up from what you bring. Also, at least one will bring a bottle of their favorite bourbon or tequila to add to the mix. Damn I love Richmond!

                          i painted a cute piggy bank with pix of beer and slogans like "feed da keg!". i don't my paying though, since i drink what i want, lol. mostly, i put money in there myself to save for the next keg.
                          there once was a chick from pawtucket,
                          whose hubby had just kicked the bucket,
                          he'd brewed all da beer,
                          which brought all da cheer,
                          so she built a keg fridge
                          and said !
