How much tip for a $9.71 pizza?

Question

in NH.

if that makes a difference

Answer 1

$2 would be ok..

Answer 2

I always give delivery personnel 20%.  They can only take a certain amount of pizza at a time and only a certain amount of pizza can be delivered in their shift.  you never know how slow their day has been so give them a good tip thats likely all they really make.

Answer 3

Tip $3.00 dollars--gas is constantly going up.

Answer 4

Well I am originally from Chicago IL where the tip percentage was 15 %..but I am now living in NH and it would be like 1.50..

Amount of Bill:   $9.71

Percentage to Tip: 15%

Number of People: 1

Tip Amount: $1.46

Total to Pay: $11.17

Total per Person: $11.71

Should you tip?

Yes, if the service was acceptable. Many jobs in the service industry pay very little. Without tips, these workers would have a hard time raising a family.

Who should you tip?

Just about anyone in the service industry. Including, but not limited to, non-fast food restaurant workers, barbers, maids, taxi drivers, bartenders, and webmasters of conversion sites. ;)

How much should you tip?

The generally accepted value is 15% to 20%, though outside North America it may be different.

If service was horrible, tip nothing and notify management. If the service was slow, tip 10%. If service was ok, tip 15%. If service was great, tip 20%.

Keep in mind if the service is slow it is not always the servers fault. If you ever plan to return then the service was good enough that you should tip something. If the service was so poor that you plan not to tip, then it was also poor enough that you should notify management.

How do you figure the tip without a calculator?

So, you're at your favorite restaurant without an Internet connection and you left your trusty calculator in your other pocket protector? All is not lost, there is a somewhat easy way to calculate the tip.

15% = 10% + 5%. So what you need to do is figure out 10% then add half (5%).

10% is very easy to calculate, you just move the decimal place one to the left. For example, if the bill is $25.00 then 10% would be $2.50.

Then to figure out 5%, just take half of that, which would be $1.25.

Now you have 10% which is $2.50 and 5% which is $1.25, add them together for a total of $3.75.

Often, the bill ends up at some obscure value such as $17.73, which may be a bit difficult to calculate using the above method. In cases like that, just round it to the nearest dollar. It would be much easier to calculate the tip for $18.00.

Another quick tip estimator.

Some countries and states have a sales tax, and you can base your tip off of that. For example, my state has a sales tax of 8.2%, so I would just double the tax and leave that much for a tip.

Answer 5

I alwys tip 15% which would be around $1.50 - but you could be generous and go to $2.

Answer 6

My suggestion would be a $2.00 tip and keep the change from the $10.00 payment.

Answer 7

i will pay him 20% of $9.71 thats appm. $2 as i always pay to them

Answer 8

how good was the pizza? the service?

always go with 20% and then more depending on the answers to those questions..

Answer 9

it's either 15% or 20%

=]

Answer 10

Give the delivery guy $11.50 or $12.00 in that area. You're helping him pay for gas.

If you are talking about eating in a pizzeria (where you order at the counter, pay at the counter, and pick it up and bring it back to your table) you don't tip at all.

If you are talking about eating a pizza in a restaurant when served by a waiter, 15%.

The only other option is you picking up a "to go" order from a pizzeria. No tip.

Answer 11

Minimum of $2;  more depending on delivery driver, length of delivery, etc....

Answer 12

A good tip is 15 percent, so estamated it would be $1.46.

Answer 13

I'd give them a tenner and let them keep the change :)

Nah, i'd give about $2

Answer 14

at least 20%.  Servers get taxed on the food you eat, so you should cover the taxes they have to pay plus a tip.  I would give at least $3 dollars.
