This thread reminds me of the bible story (not that I'm overly religious) where the vine yard boss employed people at various times throughout the day and then paid them all the same rate, to much complaining from the early workers.

When the early start workers complained the boss said "Did I not pay you what I promised and it’s my option to pay the late start workers what I like"

PG is right I think to give a good price to everyone at this time of year, shows a great generosity of spirit on their part, and it’s a bit petty to be envious of what others got biab for.

Happy Christmas to everybody.
