Good ways to Organize Tips (self.starbucksbaristas)
submitted by njcobette
I'm the new person in charge of doing tips every Tuesday. I say "new" but I started doing them occasionally this summer, but every week in January.

Our store has you read/sign the weekly update, and then collect the tips. Which are kept in a panini bag, with your name on it, and each week the new date and tip amount are added to the list. All the panini bags are kept in a shopper bag that gets put in the safe. It's hard to read, and the bags are all either falling apart or close to.

My old store had a binder, and everybody had one of those plastic page protectors in it, that were always in the same order, and we signed the tip distribution report. (We had to read sign the weekly update before we stepped on the floor for the first shift of the week).

I was just wondering if anyone had good ideas? Thanks!

Both stores I’ve worked at have used white envelopes (like letter envelopes, the longer ones) inside a blue safe bag

My store has plastic reusable envelopes with a button closure on it. They used a label maker for the names. They’re smaller than a regular envelope but fit cash perfectly. I’m new so I have no idea where they got them, but Amazon would probably have them. We claim our tips in the system now, so that’s our way of signing off on them.

We use the binder with tabs going by last name.
