the only joint that delivers here - pizza hut.. is a joke. the pizza hut here is fucking terrible, even when i order at the store and pickup - they cant get it right.

however, the little wog guy from what appears to be selling pizza from a delapidated shack (if you looked at the store, you'd think to yaself 'there is NO FUCKING WAY im eating anything from that store', but word about him spread pretty quick) - best pizza in town. found out the other week i used to goto school with his son, he showed me how he makes pizza, and now i show up - i make my own pizza, and he gives it to me cheaper. absolute champion.

god bless small business! to hell with plastic hut!

I give 2-3...

skysooner 09-29-2003 08:04 AM

Usually a buck or two. I'll go 15% and round up to the nearest $1. Our orders are usually small.

Pyrate 09-29-2003 08:31 AM

A curt and emotionless 'thank-you' should suffice.

jfranco13 09-29-2003 02:57 PM

I usually try to give them $2-$3 on a $10-$12 order and then $4-$5 on a $20-$25 order. If they're slow, they get less money, but if the pizza is there in like 20 minutes or so, I've given up to about 30-35% if I was really hungry

santafe5000 09-29-2003 05:44 PM

15-20% I live kind of far out of town so the drive is longer and the bigger the tip the faster the trip.

hahaha 09-29-2003 06:47 PM

for an average order of two larges, my friends and I normally come up with at least 2 bucks + change.

bobw 09-29-2003 07:25 PM

$3 + the change

crfpilot 09-30-2003 07:39 PM

I've been a waiter and a pizza delivery guy and I always tip really well about 20-25%.....EXCEPT if the gratuity is forced, like a delivery charge, or the 15% on parties larger than 8. That pisses me off and they get no extra.....period, even for outstanding service.

yabobo 10-01-2003 01:08 AM

I offer the driver/kid a bong hit and beer. Never had one say no!

yournamehere 10-01-2003 06:10 AM

Usually $3-$5

After all, I don't want to get any "extra toppings" on the next delivery.

smarm 10-01-2003 07:24 AM

If you don't tip the pizza guy you'll go to hell. That was always the saying I heard.

18-20% of total bill. Except I always pickup now that I've moved to an area that is apparently covered by some sort of science fiction cloaking device that is specifically tuned to delivery people.

ForgottenKnight 10-01-2003 05:28 PM

I tip a few dollars depending on the size of the order. Normally it ends up to be at least 15%.

You give the pizza guy 2-3 blowjob's?! I would think one would be adequate...

cliv 10-01-2003 06:42 PM

Usually $2 + the change

However, when the weather is bad (rain, snow, etc), it's more like $3-$4 + the change

MSD 10-02-2003 12:48 PM

$3-5 depending on whether it's 1 or 2 pizzas. I would tip 2 to 4, but if they can make it up my front steps, they deserve some extra. If it's raining or snowing, it's $5 no matter what I ordered.

I usually pick it up anyway.

Jonsgirl 10-02-2003 10:06 PM

$3-5, + the change.
Drivers remember their good -and bad- tippers, and since I'm in favor of getting better service for myself, I try to be one of the good ones.

Fast Freddy 10-03-2003 04:14 AM

I usually give $2-3 plus the change. Most of the pizza delivery places around here already tack on a buck just for delivery....

I hate when someone says "I'll get you the next time." You AND they, know you won't see shit next time either.
Last night I had a delivery for this mooch that used to come into the deli all the time. He would hang out and crack jokes and what not...but he disappeared. Now he orders food to his apartment and every fuckin time he is like "I'll get you next time." I always want to say "Next time I'm gonna leave my windows open so all your food gets cold asshole".
If you are a cheap bastard, just accept the fact that you are, and don't try and make it like you just happened to be short on cash that time, or the time before, or the time before that, or the..............

Flesh 10-03-2003 05:01 AM

one to two bucks is my usual.. if theres a blizzard 5 will do ;) not giving a tip is a choice, but it's kind of rude imo. and i think you should always do it since next time they'll spit on your pizza. they never forget..


ever.

Midlandmadman 10-03-2003 06:40 AM

I order pizza alot on the weekends. I know my exact tip is $2.87. I get the same thing all the time and it is $12.13 I give 15 bucks everytime. I know its not the greatest tip but it isn't the worst either. I always seem to get my pizza fast and with very little spit ( I Hope) , so I think that the delivery people are ok with what I give.

xaneidolon 10-03-2003 01:53 PM

I agree with kush. Ten percent or minimum of three bucks.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

Look at me. Swear to me. That the next time you deliver to him and he says that line, "I'll get you next time.", swear to me, now, you'll do this.

Look him dead in the face. Don't utter a word. Stare until he can take no more. If he attempts to close the door in the middle of this, slyly stick your foot in the door. This is cheapest excuse for scum I've seen. Do me a favor and swear. :)

blossom 10-04-2003 02:32 PM

I used to waitress, so I usually give about 20%. Usually it's about $5

Xell101 10-04-2003 04:01 PM

I usually round up to the nearest 5, or up to twenty...I once gave the pizza guy a 11 dollar tip cause I didn't have change, they like me.

Usually 3-7 bucks.

SonicRL 10-04-2003 06:15 PM

Around 2 dollars.

QuasiMojo 10-04-2003 06:36 PM

if I'm orderin' 2 large that means i got some people in on this deal.
they need to put up some tippage.

No...I mean it.
hey FUCK YOUR QUARTER DUDE.

legolas 10-05-2003 08:45 AM

Omg, I had no idea people tipped that low, I'm a waitor when I'm not up at school so I always try to be generous. If it's 15$ i'll try to give at least 3. I guess that's more or less what you guys do. If i can afford it, i'll try 5 or something like that.

BigGov 10-05-2003 01:18 PM

I normally just try to make good with whatever money I have since I'll never give a pizza guy change. It probably averages out to $1.80 per order.
