[QUOTE="Lil, post: 718960, member: 17309"] Yes...that was rather shocking to him. He had said he'd pay for their meal and then when we refused, to get the tip. At the end of the meal, he pulls out $6.00. His thinking was that $4.00 is what he usually tips, so $6.00 with two more people would be fine. We explained the 15% rule and, as it turned out, the bill was $99.00 and change, so a $15.00 tip was in order. Applebee's puts the math for tips at various percentages on the tab as a suggestion, so he looked at that and you could see he was shocked. He had $50 on him, but that was all he had and so in the end, we all ended up putting in enough to get us to $15.00. He's used to paying $20.00 or so for two meals, and with drinks and appetizer and meals the bill was five times that. [/QUOTE]
