About tipping....?

Question

What is a reasonable amount to tip a Pizza delivery person these days?

Thanks

Answer 1

I usually tip $4 unless there is a delivery fee and then I'll tip $2-4 depending on the fee.

Answer 2

2-4 bucks matters on time and amount ordered

Answer 3

For a single, large pie, I would go $2.00

Answer 4

This is hard. Our favorite pizza place, Papa John's, charges a $2 delivery fee. I would normally tip about $3 for a $20 order. It is hard for me to justify $5 to have a pizza delivered. My last order was about $17 and I tipped the driver $2. $4 doesn't sound as bad as $5. Hope this helps...

Answer 5

It depends on how accurate they told you they'll be there. I had an incident where I waited almost an hour for the pizza. I gave them a dollar tip other then that I usually give a 3.50 tip

Answer 6

i give him 3 to 5 dollars always :)

Answer 7

I give e 3 bux for a delivery that costed me 20-25 bux. 5 dollars if I ordered more than that.

Answer 8

Look at how far you are from the pizza joint, if your home is far away from the normal delivery area maybe a little extra but with high gas costs (drivers pay the gas charge) a good tip would make his day, start with at least 2.50.

Also remember a late pizza is not always his fault, the pizza could have been made slow or they sent him in 2 differnt directions. I worked at a pizza place for 2 long years and always counted on drivers to be as fast as they could. They also risk getting into accidents, tickets and many other things we dont think about

Answer 9

I try to keep in mind that the pizza person is using their own car and supplies their own gas.  I 'always' give $5 since I'm too lazy to order it and use my own car and gas to pick it up!

Answer 10

I usually give 2 bucks

Answer 11

$1 for every $7 so if the total amount for the food was $21 I would give a $3 tip.
