Tipping Mousekeeping

[jtlover]

We usually make envelopes with a mickey head with the word keeping next to it and usually make those up before we go on holiday so that money is taken care of

I was reading earlier on the US bit of this forum (before I found the UK bit) that H(M)ousekeeping is not a tippable position & that they are not supposed to take the cash and infact most of them hand in to their boss & thosse that don't if get caught could be fired, done by the tax man.....
I was planning on tipping daily as I always do when staying in a hotel for more than a night, but I don't want the money going to Disney (they'll be getting enough off of us) so is there anyway to check this out?

Actually I may call Disney tmx & ask!

As PP's have mentioned, Mousekeeping is a non-tipped position, but as you can see many people do tip

Last year I was good friends with a CM in Mousekeeping on my college program at WDW, and I know for a fact that she took all her tips, along with her colleagues. She didn't hand them to her boss, but have no idea if she declared them or not But she, and others, did keep them.

They were not 'pooled' either - as in shared with everybody. If they were cleaning that room, and there was a tip, then they took it and kept it
