My son used to work for a well-known sub shop franchise that had a tip jar. The employees never got the tips and he said he didn't know where the money went but the jar was emptied every few days. He thinks the managers split it amongst themselves.

Some news show I watched called those jars "sucker jars" sm
Because the places that have them out are places like Starbucks, pizza joints, the like. What would you be tipping for, exactly, in the case where you order a coffee and the person hands it to you? The same for the pick-up pizza places. The person preparing your pizza gets an hourly wage. I definitely do not tip and the show I saw this on said only suckers do.
Feel good jars...
My son gave this to me years ago, and it is the most touching gift I've ever received.
Cut some wide strips of colorful paper, and have the kids write something about why they love the parents on each one (I love it when you read to me, I love your hugs, etc.)
Put those strips inside a small Mason/canning jar.
Replace the removable flat part of the lid with a square piece of pretty fabric and then use the "ring" part to screw it on.
Tie a ribbon around the jar with a card attached that says:
When you're feeling blue,
And you don't know what to do,
You don't have to look far,
Just open this jar,
And see how much I love you!
You can search for baking mix gifts in Mason jars, too, or some version of those words. nm
