Here comes our waitress with our check. - The service here has been really great, don't you think?

Yes, the service was quite good. - So, let's look at the check. The total is $36.00. - How much do you think we should leave for a tip?
-

Usually people leave 15 percent, but this was exceptional service. I am thinking that maybe 20 percent would be appropriate.

I agree that 20 percent would be just about right. - OK, so that will bring her tip to $7.20. Add it to the $36.00 and the total is $43.20.

What do you think would be the right amount to leave for a tip? - Fifteen percent is a normal tip, but she really did a great job. What do you think about 20 percent this time?

How much money should we leave for a tip? - I know that 15 percent is a normal tip, but I really thought that this waitress went out of her way for us. What do you think about tipping her 20 percent?
