Are these correct? If not, why?
Scenario: She's a waitress at a restaurant and I'm talking about her.
1. She gets so much
tip
. (Is this correct?)
2. She gets so much
tips
. (If this is correct, why? I do hear people say
this a lot? Is that how you spell 'tips' ?)
3. She gets so
many
tip. (This sentence is incorrect?)
4. She gets so
many
tips. (This sentence is correct? But I shouldn't use
this one?)
5. She gets
a lot
of
tips
. (If this is okay, how come #4 is not
often used?)
6. She gets
a lot
of
tip.
(Is this okay? I don't hear this a lot?)
Which one should I use? What would you use?
Thanks.

I would use "She gets a lot of tips". That's what you should use!
