I look at it as Actual price = menu price + lowest suggested tip + $5 tip awkwardness penalty. So a place near me has a $12 lunch-size sub sandwich that's really good. But they ask for a 15% tip. So rather than just never eat at my favorite sandwich spot, I regard it as a $18.80 lunch and only buy it on rare occasions or when my company is paying.
You're tipping at a sandwich shop? Do they even bring you the sandwich and fill your drink for you?
You tip a fastfood?
If I'm getting it to go, no tip. Or just the tip.
Same. I multiply any restaurant price by 4/3 to account for taxes, fees, and tips when determining if I want to go.
Taxes and fees should included in the price, in civilised countries anyway. That sounds like such a pain.
They are included in the price in civilized countries. It is only a very very limited number of places where you can't hand a cashier $5 to pay for something literally labelled $5 and then walk out.
I think the guy you replied to is from the US.
I hate American math
Thanks for subsidizing my $12 sandwiches I guess lol. That sure helps me out! Don't think it helps the servers much in the long run though.
