Prices in the US are skyrocketing asinflation persists, and the cost of tipping has gone up with it. However, while tipping has long been commonplace on this side of the world, spenders have started to notice the practice pop up in places they’ve never seen before…and they certainly don’t like it.
Whether it be a request at a business you’ve never been asked to tip at before, or a suggested tip range reaching 35% or even 50% of your total service cost, here are 15 people who saytipping has gotten “way out of control"after their recent confrontations:
