I tip about 18-20%(here in NJ it works out to about 3 times the sales tax or double the first digit of the bill) and whether it's with my friend or spouse, they both think it's too much, altho my friend is a bit more liberal.
I worked in a (slightly) upscale restaurant two years and, at least during lunch, the women were really cheapskates with tips but the worst of all....old people. 10% maybe and if they showed up with a BOGO coupon from those Entertainment books, they'd tip on only the meal they paid for, even though the coupon states "Please tip your server based on the bill amount before your deduction."
