AIBU for not tipping my grocery delivery driver?

[Honeybooboo123]

I'm never sure if I am supposed to. What's the general rule?

I don't.

I've never tipped a grocery delivery driver. It's never even occurred to me to, tbh.

No, surely people don’t do this??

I don't. NObody tips me and I do a good job for wealthier people than 'I'.

Is that a thing?

I never do

I remember seeing a programme on TV or an article that talked about fit and healthy people wanting their shopping right in their kitchen but never offering a tip, and yet elderly women being so grateful for their shopping that they tip a £1, which meant alot to the driver.

Never crossed my mind. I don’t tip the checkout person either.

I never do! Don't know where else the delivery man would leave my shopping though if not in the kitchen? They usually help me unpack it onto the table as well. I am fit and healthy!

Never do, they already get paid from the company they work for.

Thats nice, clutterbug theres nothing like minimum wage to keep one in the lap of luxury.
DP delivers for a very naice company and pretty much no-one (except the most unlikely as detailed earlier) tips except a few at Xmas.

I don't and I hope it's not expected. I think, actually, they don't expect a tip.

Does anyone tip pizza delivery drivers? I never do and wouldn't like if they had expected me to do it. Their pizza is quite expensive. The Big chain.

I hate anything involving tipping. It makes me sweat.

I work in the nhs and get nuffink so I have no idea why and what is acceptable.

Why taxi, hairdressers but not delivery drivers, although yes to pizza delivery

I tip.

It has never occurred to me to tip them. I have also never considered they would bring my shopping into the kitchen for me!! Is that what most people do?! Some drivers do look surprised when I carry the crates through from the front door - I’d feel well cheeky asking them to do that!

Hate tipping culture. Give here, give there. People forget that they have salaries and don't work for free.

Don't know where else the delivery man would leave my shopping though if not in the kitchen?

Most people I know just unload the boxes at the front door then carry the shopping through after.

I've never tipped and I don't know anyone who does. They always ask where I want it and happily bring it through to the kitchen. Nobody has ever assumed I would take it atone door.

@Astrid2 eh, your door!

Oh God, is this a new thing?

I just had all my Easter eggs delivered by a lovely man from Tesco and didn't tip. Does he think I'm a dickhead?

I have never tipped.

Yes we're a front door family too.

Hold on - do the kitchen receivers ask the delivery drivers to remove their shoes? what if they want to use the toilet??

Drop shopping and leave please!

Ocado drivers are not allowed to accept tips. I tried when one delivered to me under impossible circumstances.

I thought they weren't allowed to accept tips. The drivers I get from Tesco are lovely they automatically take my shopping into the kitchen for me. I've never tipped them though

I offload the shopping by the door and that's it. The driver is happy and I can sort out the shopping by myself otherwise I would have to think of the driver walking with his shoes on on my carpets.

I never do. My dh is a delivery driver for a supermarket and tips are not something that are expected or usually accepted where he works. I do tip for takeaways though.
