Who's right?

Hey ladies- settle our fight please! We are building our home and ordered new furniture. Furniture will be delivered and set up for us by the store. Delivery is free. (3 full bedroom sets and one living room, AKA- a lot of stuff!)
I say we tip the guys. ($100 each? Your input would be appreciated if you agree.)
Husband says "delivery is free!"
I think we should tip especially because it's a service we could do ourselves but don't have to. It's Like mowing the lawn. We tip the neighbor boy at the end of the season for a job well done, on top of paying him.
So who's right?!

Re: Who's right?

  • Loading the player...
  • If you come back to see this...I say meet half way at $50!
  • Personally... my husband wouldn't care what a bunch of women had to say on the internet. I think this is something the two of you need to work out. All I hear in my head is "See! Look at what all of these women think!" Not exactly a problem solving statement. That would just piss my DH off.
    Couldn't agree more.  But I'll play along.  Tip them what you can afford.  If 100 each is in the budget and its worth it to you to avoid the heavy lifting, and it would be worth it to me.  However, tipping strangers isn't worth a huge fight with your husband.  
  • Get a 12 pack and pizza
  • I'm thinking around $20 each. It will probably take them less than an hour to deliver it and set it up. Those guys are super quick!
  • Hot summers day these poor removalists had to move all my stuff from the fourth floor of a building , that had no elevator or air con, then they delivered and moved it all where I wanted it , I bought them a 6 pack if beer and have them 20 bucks to get some food , mind you in Australia , we don't tip, I just felt bad cos I made them do it on one of the hottest days in summer !!

  • Seriously, OP? Why don't you check any number of the other posts you have started and see the replies? And why are people actually answering her question?

    What a stupid fucking thread.

    Hey OP if your problem solving skills extend to asking a group of strangers if you are "right" in a fight against your husband I have serious doubts that you have the mental maturity to even be married.

    kindly GO AWAY or at the very least SHUT UP the grownups are trying to have a conversation.





    Marry me.

    I've already declared @swoon13 to be my internet wife, but I am in NO way opposed to an internet harem.





    Butch fest?


    IN!


    Even if I can't join, can I at least watch?! Tee hee girl crush.

    I'm sure my opinion is an unwanted one by OP and it's the only reason I gave it. Doesn't answer her question with a yes or a no and it doesn't help her to "win" her case  >:)

  • I'm voting that if she posts again, we ignore it. Not worth the effort if she is just going to use us as google. I'd much rather see her posts go with 0 replies unless some rando decides to be nice and humor her. Then go freaking crazy.

    I believe it was sarcasm meant to heckle OPs seeming wealth coupled with her lack of Google skills.
