It is a no, though some people do.  It is the greatest service, it is nice not to have the drag the kids to the grocery store.

I don't want to have to drag ME to the grocery store!!!   ;D  Not if I don't have a car to haul it all home in!!

Ok - now for the very American question... Do you tip your delivery man?  Or is that just not done.

I don't. And they never seem to linger or act irritated when I don't, so my hunch is that no one does....

Nope -- no tips.  We have the same delivery guy every week, so I'm gonna bake him some cookies, etc., at Christmas and will give him a little money, but that's because I really like him.  If we had a different guy every time, I wouldn't bother with it.

No I don't tip the delivery driver ..unless it's from a small company delivery company ...which most are not so I don't.


I do tip our cabbie unless they are crap...like those that think their car is a shrine and get anal about people getting their car scruffed...wtf did you become a cabbie then... ::)

But never fear, gentlemen; castration was really not the point of feminism, and we women are too busy eviscerating one another to take you on.

One day I went totally out of my mind...

I went out and bought pearls from a local jeweler. She was screaming about her Italiano father.

She wanted to buy my house. Talk about crazy.
