Re: Re-Thinking Delivery Charges
PPG2270:
BTW, quite a few of the drivers over at TTPG feel that the delivery charge has not hurt their tip average. My store added a 99 cent delivery fee a year and a half ago and in that time we have seen tips increase in average over 10%. Seems to me that the delivery charge may actually help the drivers tip average.

You have already stated in this thread that to you, it is irrelevant what the owners costs associated with delivery are. Why should any owner find it relevant whether the name of the charge affects tips?Perhaps the name should be changed to “convenience fee” or “store delivery charge” to clear any association and confusion with the customer as it relates to tips.
