I am not cheap. It's *
SMART SHOPPING*. I mean WHY NOT GET EVERYTHING YOU CAN FOR FREE? WHY PAY FOR THINGS YOU DON'T "HAVE" TO?
I am NOT a "scam artist." The restaurant is stupid enough to give away free food, WHY not take what I can get? It's free. There's nothing wrong with it. Any customer is stupid and dumb not to get the
best deal for their money(unless they really wouldn't eat it, but if they would, why not?) I mean even though literally there's no money exchange for that product as far as bread goes, you are still you are paying for the service. I know I give more in the service if I ask for more helpings of bread or refills unless the service was bad. I count that in the tip. I count when I get a lot of condiments that are FREE in my service when I am tipping unless the service was really bad.
You obviously don't count in your TIP if you get a lot of refills or if you get water(not bottled water) instead of an actual costing drink. We do, as I said unless the service was bad, meaning if my husband gets water, we will tip based on what the bill would have been plus tax before tipping, because water is just as much work as a coke is. In fact if he gets lemon, it's just like getting an iced tea. I am not factoring in the syrup changes or the newly fresh brewed iced tea in this since most of the time you aren't dealing with those, but if you do, those are things that water you wouldn't have to deal with, but still, you get my point.
That means if I get a coke to-go, especially if the server offered it to me, I am paying a little extra in my tip if the service wasn't bad. I am not paying the restaurant, but I am paying my server more for the extra work.
As far as soft drinks or iced tea goes, you are paying a price, so why not get as many refills as you can for your money if you want to drink that much soft drink or iced tea?
There is NOTHING wrong with getting the most for your money.
I am not a bad person for being a smart shopper. You are a bad person.
