WAIT!!! Here are 3 MORE UNDER $30 IDEAS
These all sound great and all but clearly the person that put this together is not a great tipper! 2 sandwiches 14$ plus tax and tip equals 16 $ what’s that like 50 cents a sandwhich. I’m all for doing things on a budget but people make there living off tips so if you can’t afford to tip, then you should go to a fast food restaurant. In the last option. They didn’t include a tip at all. I know you don’t need to tip everywhere you go but if you sit down at a bar and have a glass of wine you should be leaving a tip!
Thanks for your input. Your math is clearly better than mine.And you’re right, tipping is always the best way to go.
Kristen,
Where are those Macarons in the picture from? I’ve never seen those in Le Macaron.
There are from there. One of my contributors took that pic.
