The way I figure it is that if the person (in this case the bag boy) is already getting paid to do his job then no tip is necessary--I don't get extra tips to do my job it's just expected that I do it and do it well.Michellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03431612712657744264noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-456723626916931138.post-42868835702398279982008-05-27T13:16:00.000-04:002008-05-27T13:16:00.000-04:00i think you probably made his hour, at least. i th...i think you probably made his hour, at least. i think anytime someone wants to make my day a little easier it's worth a couple bucks. good on ya.katehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07454641529992604440noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-456723626916931138.post-43252074786172196212008-05-25T12:28:00.000-04:002008-05-25T12:28:00.000-04:00When we lived on military bases it was 'socially r...When we lived on military bases it was 'socially required' to tip the bag boy - as they were not paid any hourly wage at all. I don't think etiquette rules require you leave a tip, But the way I look at it is this: $2 isn't going to put you out but it will make his/her day. <BR/><BR/>As far as To Go orders, yes, it doesn't take a lot of effort (compared to serving a whole meal dine-in) for them Hollyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16676530868449226811noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-456723626916931138.post-47172188346034438322008-05-25T11:25:00.000-04:002008-05-25T11:25:00.000-04:00i don't know, erin. i don't ever recall my mom gi...i don't know, erin. i don't ever recall my mom giving tips to the grocery boy... and my mom is the queen of all tippers. but i could be wrong. <BR/><BR/>did you google it? cos you know google has all the answers. ;)Lorihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08422497728521679173noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-456723626916931138.post-55862174747469301282008-05-25T11:18:00.000-04:002008-05-25T11:18:00.000-04:00I know a lot of groceries stores (like Lowe's Food...I know a lot of groceries stores (like Lowe's Foods, not sure if they have that out here) don't allow their employees to take tips. I know when I was younger and worked at a Winn Dixie (again not sure if they have that out here) we were told we couldn't take any kind of tip, not money, gift or anything else someone offered.
