Okay, here's a slightly different spin. We've considered food/takeout/bar tips, but what about other tips that people expect?
I don't give a damn to admit it, I got my haircut as a kid at the neighborhood barbershop, and get my haircut now at SuperCuts, or the like. My haircut (I consider it the "generic male haircut") is pretty hard to fuck up, and I shouldn't have to pay much for 15 minutes in a chair to make the sides of my hair half as long as the top, and to blend between. I could do it myself if I could remove my head and still see what I was doing, but I can't.
So the haircut runs around $15, I usually tip $3-$5, since it took 15 minutes or less, depending on how awkward my forced conversation went in the chair.
When I get my car washed at the drive-thru carwash, it, again, costs $15 or so, and I tip $3-$5, depending on how well clean & dried off the car is.
There's not much else I can think of that I tip for. Perhaps I'm uncouth, but I will
not
tip those bathroom valets who hand you a towel and want to try and mist you with some product, and I am not lazy (or rich) enough to ever need to use a valet for parking. The few times I do, I tip a few bucks, but I feel that's such a stupid and lazy thing to have to pay for, so I avoid it at all costs.
