How Much Do You Tip?

[Kashta]

You've ordered pizza or other food for home delivery. When you pay the bill, how much of a tip do you give the delivery person? Do you think you're being generous, the amount is just right, or it's a little lower than it should be?

Just curious.

I use a calculator, and if its good service, I usually give 15 percent, but if they were late, or weren't very nice about 10 percent.

I always give a couple bucks, but I can not stand this sense of entitlement to a tip. If the waiter is rude, un attentive,they run the risk of not getting a tip. It doesn't take more than 15 seconds to come by and ask if we need anything. If the service is really good I'll leave a 5'er. Keep in mind our bills rarely go above 30 bucks. If they do it's because there's like 10 people and then we all pitch in for the tip.

I'm nice. 20% if they do a good job.

I tip 3.00 on a 20.00 meal, and for a pizza I tip 2.00 but of course pizza around here is under 15.oo
if the waitress is not good or rude which I usually over look and try my best to be a good customer,and try to make a any situation better,but........ if she is still rude.... forget it!

I pick the pizza up so I don't have to tip!

But 15-20% is standard.

20% at restaurants no matter what. Server could just be having a bad day,we all do.

Pizzas usually run $15 and I give them a $20....

I usually tip delivery drivers $3-5 depending on how much I buy. I normally tip good servers at a restaurant about 20%.

At restaurants, 15-20%, always. I remember living on my mom's tips when younger, and know that servers count on them to supplement their minimum wage. Delivered food gets $4-5.
