I usually always tip. I wouldn't say I tip "well" because I am no big spender. Usually 15% at restaurants, +/- a bit depending on the quality of service. Haircuts, taxis, pizza delivery etc. I always tip at least a few bucks.

I've never understood why we tip for haircuts.

I do tip for haircuts but I've never understood why. Only in America!

I tip and it varies generally about 20% but if the person is really rude I will leave an insultingly small ammount.
I am still getting the hang of tipping, we dont tip in New Zealand.

Minimum of $10, above that depends on their gender & how cute they are.

well i tip well because those folks made squat. I figure im making nearly 40/hr effectively based on my salary. Those folks probably making 1/3 to 1/4 of what i am, so i can understand how much that would suck to make that chimp change..

Delivery dudes get Sheit all from me. Thats why itd free delivery ;)

In resturants they only get a good tip 5-10 bucks depending on the amount of people Im with if they make absolute sure that all our needs are being taken care of, they are curtious and repectful.

I dont get my hair cut so I dont tip there.

I rarely tip the haircutter. They have to be real good.
Pizza guy usually gets $1 minimum. One guy got nothing because he had his hand out.
Servers I don't tip a percentage or I would be screwing some really good people because the restaraunt has cheap food.
