I don’t work out a percentage for my tips usually, however I’ve been told that I’m generous with them (recently this hasn’t been possible since I’m unemployed and completely broke, but that means I’m not eating out much/at all so it evens out), for example if I go to Ichiban near me (I’m in Scotland by the way) and buy lunch for myself I would usually leave a tip somewhere between £3 and £7 depending on how friendly the waiters were, how busy it was, how fast I got my meal. The typical lunch I would buy would come to about £13 or £14, so that’s fairly generous I think. (The higher end tips appear when I’m the only person there and the food is good, if business is slow then they kind of need it and I appreciate that.) Oh, just so you don’t have to do it yourself, £1 is currently $1.89701, so it’s between $5.69 and $13.27 for a meal costing between $24.66 and $26.55 Just thought I should defend myself here. =P yes, I copied and pasted this because I realised I had posted in a blog from September (being given a link to a specific article and not noticing the date sucks. =() so I thought you're more likely to see it here.
