Been to Orlando a few times before, but September will be the first time we've had to deal with valet parking. Staying at the Ritz Carlton where they ONLY do valet (YOU HAVE NO CHOICE).They charge $15 a day I think anyway so by the time we drop off & pick up the car a few times a day, this could get very expensive.Any ideas how I should tip the valets, tipping a few dollars to drop off & a few to pick up every time would bankrupt us but we don't want to offend anyone.

I thin k $2 for drop off and another $2 for pick up is the normal amount of tipping.
Sounds like you will have an expensive stay with your car if you are going to be using it every day. Best just to budget for it and think of it as part of your holiday costs, that's what we do.

As Caron says if it is compulsary to valet park then you will just have to cost it into the stay.
We generally tip between $2 and $3 or a bit more if there is suitcases to pack/unpack.
