What bribes have you paid/received and was it worth it?

"Bribes" is a cultural thing. A tip is a bribe of sorts, for good service. I have never taken anything to give other than my best professional efforts. But I have in the past been given a gift as is the local custon as a token of thanks and respect for my efforts. I have an impressive collection of watches and I was given a couple for my wife after I mentioned I had more timepieces than I could ever wear. I suppose the kids can sell them off if they dont want to keep them. And of course the Grandchildren arent interested, since they arent digital.😷
