Over the past few weeks, there’s been a lot of talk about tipping….and how much people tip.

According to “etiquette experts”:  if you’re not planning to tip anywhere from 15 to 20% – you shouldn’t be eating out.  WHAT??

A 15% tip is considered the low-end.

18% is the standard, and is considered “good”

20% is excellent.  Some places even offer 22-30% tip options. 

PLUS, something to think about:  do you tip on take-out?  Experts say you certainly don’t have to, but anywhere between 5 and 10% is good.
