[quote=Anonymous]I decided on $5 personally.  The drivers not only deliver the food but they also collect your groceries and double check the orders, etc.  I think up to $10 would be nice but since we do weekly deliveries I really don't have room in our budget for an additional $50 a month.

Actually my husband is from South America and it is customary to tip folks for almost everything.  Even if you park your car on the side of the road there will be someone who will "watch" it for you to make sure it's not stolen or broken into for about 25 cents.  In bathrooms there will likely be an old woman who will hand you a paper towel and open the door for you on the way out and you would give her 5 cents for her effort.  The examples go on and on......

It's more a matter of having an understanding that you are more well off and others may not be and it's kind to provide a small token for their effort because it certainly goes a long way for their families.  I think the same should apply for service workers....if you have it to give it's certainly a kind thing to do.[/quote]
