Either in terms of total number or as a percentage of the bill.

I'm mainly talking about restaurants/bars/clubs but we can expand the scope to ...entertainment...if y'all want.

For the purposes of this thread, exclude transactions where you got something free (eg free drinks from the bartender).

I mean if it's $1-2 beer night I tip a dollar a beer so it can easily be 50% in such a case. Otherwise, I've tipped friends that were bartending around 50% on a bigger tab but they usually hooked it up, in which case I tip according to what I didn't pay for

Why just the tip? Why not all of it?

Percentage-wise, I've definitely tipped over 100%, but never with a bill over $10 in normal circumstances.

In absolute terms, I tipped around 30% on a $400 bill on my honeymoon which was one of the best meals of my life and totally worth it.

I tipped $25 on $5 once, but I knew the bartender and he was working on his birthday.

i tipped a girl somewhere around 100% one time, but she was the most hilarious waitress i've ever had, and helped me steal a cup that i really wanted. she also brought a guy at the table a bowl of just croutons and dressing. as he ate it he said "guys, this is rock bottom."

I've definitely tipped 100% or more before.

BUT that's only ever been at a cheap chain salon like Super Cuts when I've gotten a fabulous hair cut for like 15 bucks.

Percentage? Probably 150% on a night's bar tab.

I can't recall the biggest actual tip I've given.

I'm pretty much always a 20% tipper unless I'm drunk at Waffle House - then I go to 100%

I've definitely tipped over 200% more than once, but it was on a two-dollar coffee and I give my baristas fives sometimes if I have it on me.

I think the top for dinners/drinks is 30-40% every once in a while PR because it's usually cheap enough that I can afford to add a few extra dollars.

I usually do about 20-25% as a base.

i think the total tip out from all of my wedding stuff was like a grand.


but a single restaurant/bar type deal? probably 50 bucks. that's the most i remember.

One time in college, i was drunk as shit, and we we went to milano's after EV, and the guy in front of me didn't sign his receipt and walked off. I yelled to him that he didn't sign his receipt, and he gave me the finger and walked out. So I wrote in $100 and signed it for him.

Somebody that worked there had a good night.

Somebody that worked there probably got accused of writing in their own tip without permission.

Percentage wise doesn't really count because a lot of my best friends are bartenders and I don't get charged for much. So $20 or $30 on a $10 tab that includes 10 drinks is pretty normal. I have tipped $100 for a $200 dinner where the service was just phenomenal. Yeah, there were a few comped glasses of champagne, a desert, and a glass of wine here and there....but it truly was the best service I've ever experienced.

16%, because the service was really really good.

I normally don't tip, everyone knows that is just extra money that the people pocket above their paycheck.

$12 on an $8 bar tab, because bartender gave us 5 or so pints and only billed that much.
