For almost $3k, it better.

1.3/10 on your effort, buddy.

A lot of furniture stores don't have the item in the store and ship from a warehouse.

I tried to be cheap and save the $200 once. I had to drive all the way out to Slidell and I filled my 16' trailer and it was a pain all around. Won't do it again.

I did. That was after the membership program discounts kicked in.

I learned a lesson on cheaping out recently. Went with a cheaper guy on a tile job. Now I have a tear out, re-tile job I'm planning. Yay.

Wait, you paid $3,000 for a dresser and crib and you are on here asking if you should give the delivery guy a tip?
I think you could spare the $10 and I'm sure he would be happy as all hell.

I think there was some other shite in there like crib skirts, mobile, and maybe something else. But yeah... I kind of did. Pick your battles, right?

First kid, so we're probably going a little over the top like some parents tend to do.

It wasn't the money as much as the principle. I also needed to get cash since I'm guilty of never carrying it.

Are you serious? I've never seen that. Then again it's been a long time since I've been in a bank.

I could see the old people with money that still go in to do things and like the conversation maybe wanting to leave a tip, but other than that, it seems strange.



That's what it is. Old women leave a $5 or something after they chat their way through a deposit.

So this thread was really you trying to rationalize not tipping because you were too lazy to go to an atm?



I would’ve done the exact same thing.
