Default Back to back cruises & tipping

Going on a back to back cruise with Celebrity next week and I was
wondering do I tip after each week or when the two weeks are over?
Also does anyone know if the Century has an ATM on board where I can
withdraw AMEX funds?

TIA

I would tip after each week in case your waiter, steward, etc are off or
assigned to a different area the second week.

Yes, tip after each week. I believe the Century does have an ATM, but
there's a $5 charge per withdraw. Here's a tip, get the cash from the
cashier in the Casino and put it on your cruise charge card....no extra
charge at all!

I NEVER tip! Just go on different cruise lines!

Tip at the end of each week and bring enough cash with you so that you
do not waste money on ATM charges.

Or take travelers checks, which you can always cash at the pursers desk.

Clint,

I don't know if you're serious, but is this a common practice by a
substantial number of cruisers?? -- I would never dream of this myself, but
just wondering how often this occurs
