I wish I could do that! I once tried to avoid tipping a cashier in NYC after being overtly requested. I then got yelled at.

I leave a tip in all hotels except in Australia.
Sometimes I get a thank you card, other times nothing. I don't want anything in return, except a clean room and it's going to be cleaned the same regardless of tip, and the same person won't be cleaning it every day anyway.
A few hotels in the Dolomites recently, I left tips on the pillow and they didn't take it. So I then left a note, and they still didn't take it.
