On: Companies use drip pricing to overcharge consumers

I read that too and laughed.

The whole argument behind tipping is that the servers don't get paid enough without it.

I am all for restaurants paying a fair wage and benefits to their staff. I will not eat at a restaurant that tries to surcharge me for it.

There is already a way to pass along costs to the customer: the posted price.

There's definitely no way I am paying a tip and a surcharge.
