What is a good tip for 100 service?

How much should you tip for a $200 service?

Tip? On a $200 service? Oh, the age-old dance. Prepare for opinions!

• The “Standard” Play: 15-20%? Sure, for perfectly average. That’s $30-$40. But average…is boring. Don’t be boring.

• The “Effort” Factor: Was I serenaded with a lute? Extra tip. Did they fix my phone that I dropped in the bath (again)? Tip multiplied by the number of tears saved.

• The “Guilt” Trip (my fave!): Did they look crestfallen? Did they mention their kids’ ballet lessons? Did I catch them staring longingly at my dog Biscuit? Manipulate me, I dare you! Cha-ching!

• The “Service” Sneak: A $5 tip on a $200 service? Woof. Reddit roars! My chihuahua has better manners than that.

• The Haircut Hustle: DC women tipping for a $200 haircut, huh? Depends! Is it a simple trim, or did they sculpt my hair into a passable resemblance of Beyonce’s latest masterpiece? The latter earns serious coin.

I, for one, am a generous god, er, tipper. Unless Biscuit eats my rent money again. Then everyone suffers.

Tipping Breakdown:

• Standard: Aim for 15-20%. Think: Bare minimum.
• Exceptional: 20%+ is chef’s kiss. They deserve a raise.
• Awkward: Under 15%? Prepare for the side-eye.
• Zero: Only if disaster struck (or Biscuit got involved).
• Remember taxes! Don’t get taxed on your tip.

So, tip accordingly, my friend. And maybe buy Biscuit some chew toys. Just, you know, a thought.

How much to tip on a $200 delivery order?

Ten percent. Twenty dollars. Enough.

• Ten Percent Rule: It exists. A default. Serves its purpose.
• Shipt says more? Shipt thinks.
• $200 Order Reality: Delivery is delivery. The labor? Minimal. Gas costs something.
• My Tip Philosophy: Did they spit in my kale? Probably not.
• Personal Case Study: Remember that time my Shipt person forgot my oat milk? Still tipped. Less, though. Justice.
• Twenty is fine.
• Forty? Overkill. Give to the animal shelter instead.
• Ultimate Punchline: They are not saving lives. Just groceries. Though…maybe they are? Thinking.

Additional Information:

• Regional Variations: Tips vary. NYC demands more. Iowa? Maybe less. Know your place.
• Consider Delivery Difficulty. Stairs. Rain. A cranky dog. Merit extra.
• The “Forgot Something” Factor: Still tip. Adjust downwards. Communicate feedback.
• Service mattered. Friendliness. Efficiency. Judge accordingly.
• Inflation’s Grip: Twenty dollars feels… less. Maybe twenty-five? I digress.
• Cash vs. App: Cash is king. Leaves no trace. Unless you get robbed. Oh well.
• Zero? Is an option. Though a bad one.
• Don’t overthink. Just tip. Then forget.
• Just forget. I have.
• Wait, did I?
• Whatever.

How much to tip on $250 hair color?

For a $250 hair coloring job, $50 (20%) is standard. A superb stylist, though, might merit more. It’s all about your perception of the service. Life’s too short for bad hair, am I right?

Consider these factors when deciding:

• Stylist’s skill: Was it a complex dye job? Did they nail the color perfectly? My last balayage took forever!
• Salon ambiance: Upscale salons usually warrant higher tips. I recently went to a place in Chelsea, and the atmosphere was amazing.
• Overall experience: Did the stylist listen? Were they friendly and professional? A bad attitude is a tip killer.

A 15-20% tip is a safe bet. For exceptional service, bumping it to 25% is perfectly acceptable. Remember, tipping reflects your satisfaction and encourages good work. It’s an investment in your fabulous hair, haha!

My personal approach? I usually round up to a nice number. Makes it easier for me and the stylist. It’s a small price to pay for looking and feeling amazing, especially since I had to use the metro to get there in peak hour. Ugh.

How much tip for $300 meal?

Sixty bucks. Easy math. Dinner with Sarah and her parents last week at that new Italian place, Davinci’s, on Elm Street. Three hundred, bam, sixty. Sarah’s dad, he’s old school, always does cash. Handed the waiter a crisp hundred. Told him to keep the change. Waiter practically bowed. Food was good, though. Pasta carbonara, extra bacon. Sarah had the lasagna. Her parents split the veal scallopini. Big portions. Davinci’s. Remember the address? 32 Elm. Expensive, but worth it for the occasion. Sarah’s birthday. She turned 28. August 12th. Damn, good carbonara.

• $300 bill: $60 tip (20%)
• Davinci’s: Italian restaurant, 32 Elm Street
• Occasion: Sarah’s 28th birthday, August 12th
• My order: Pasta carbonara, extra bacon
• Sarah’s order: Lasagna
• Her parents’ order: Veal scallopini
• Payment method: Cash ($100, keep the change)

Is $5 a good delivery tip?

Five bucks? That’s highway robbery… for the customer. Seriously, it’s practically a gold nugget for delivery drivers in 2024. They’re practically swimming in their newly acquired riches!

Why $5 is a fantastic tip:

• It’s like giving a unicorn a pat on the head. Seriously. Think of the joy!
• Drivers don’t see that fat delivery fee; it’s mostly corporate greed. That five spot? It’s their actual paycheck! That’s right, they basically work for tips.
• It’s more than some people get in a day. I once saw a squirrel with more cash. Okay, that’s a lie. But still, five bucks is substantial!

My buddy, Steve – the guy with the ridiculously loud motorbike— swears by it. He says it’s enough to buy a decent-sized bag of chips, which he needs because his scooter burns way more calories than he expects.

So yeah, five dollars is awesome. Think of it as a small act of kindness, maybe equivalent to rescuing a kitten from a tree… but with less fur.

How much to tip on a $500 hair appointment?

Fifteen percent. Always.

Twenty percent is acceptable. Never less.

$75 minimum. End of story.

• Quality dictates. Inferior service deserves less.
• My stylist? She gets twenty-five. Don’t ask.
• Remember, skills deserve compensation.
• Cash, always cash. Forget digital guilt.
• Anything under, rude. Period.

The unsaid truth? Tipping culture is…complicated. Some clients, they just don’t tip. Others, excessive. It’s a tightrope.
