I say why not because we're talking about a couple dollars either way. Just seems really petty in retrospect. Should probably over-tip in such situations, right? Make their day a little better and it's such a small amount it means nothing to me.
My rich ex-bf used to say exactly this. His logic was that he'd blow $50 or $100 on total BS, so what's a few extra dollars tip?
