I always tip at least 20%, usually more if the service is good primarily because I've worked as a waiter before and I know how important those tips are. I will agree with what most people are saying that I am eating out/ordering food in a lot less then I use to now a days with money being tight and all.

The only thing that has changed in our house hold is eating out less.
Not the tipping

The real sign the economy is bad: I actually ate dinner at home once last week.

Be afraid... be very afraid...

Are you serious? I couldn't do without cooking, I enjoy it and people say I'm a good cook. You ALWAYS eat outside?

We do too much. Once the kid left for school, there hasn't been the same drive to cook.

Although I did make dinner last night.

(btw, the kid is due to arrive tonight with his roomate around 9 PM tonight, after a 3 days drive from The Ville!!!!!!!!!!)

Yes. Every once in a while friends cook for me (they hate that I don't eat healthy), and I have dinner with my parents every Sunday. But aside from that, I always eat out.

Tipping the same, usually 18-20%. But like others stated, we're going out to eat less often.

I tip the same amount. The thing is we've cut way back on dining out and delivery food. For example, I used to get Papa Johns once a week, now it's once a month. Tip the delivery guy the usual amount when I do order. My usual delivery guy is awesome and a Kings fan.

To them, as much as you give, it's never enough. I've known my fair share of strippers over the years. For a while a few years ago, I went on a weekly basis and occassionally I'd get freebies, haha. They even refused my tips. That was a while ago though.

I miss home -cooked food soooo much. We eat out at least twice a day. Being in the business, there is always something to do, somewhere to go and pick up more supplies. And you know what's even funnier, I'm not a pizza nut, my wife is ( and yes we do have to go work out often). But I enjoy like The Hat, or Roscoes on the way to the game.

Last couple of weekends I was in Vegas (second home aka Luxor or Palms), I swear I keep that light on top going, and I always tip the valet guy everytime I pull up good enough that he'll leave my car right in front. And it just got me thinking about how people really depend on that little gray area of income. I guess it's like Karma. If you get it, your supposed to give it!

I saw a research which said that men who cook more, have sex more often.
