I am getting furniture delivered. Do I need to tip them?

I googled it and I found quite a wide variety of advice. Its a simple deliver (couch/chair). There will be little or no setup. First floor deliver, and the doors are super wide.

I do. Not to sound like a prick but who needs a few bucks more, you or them?

Unless of course they're incompetent or fricking pricks. I tip on quality of service. If it's good I will tip accordingly.

I tipped the guy who delivered my washer/dryer a cigarette. He seemed elated.

Well by that logic, you should tip every college kid you see walking around town

No those hippie pricks are just walking around. Delivery guys are at least providing me a service.

I think the PC thing to do is tip everyone. Every single person you do business with, tip them.

Of course. I do even though they are probably never expecting one from me. I like to shatter those stereotypes.

Yes. $20 total. Most places will pay them between $7-$10 depending on the price of your piece. Those guys get paid by bulk.

I did it for awhile.

You tip a guy a cigarette and then say Texans suck.
