I don't tip, but that's achieved by never doing anything where tipping is expected.

I pre-ordered a pair of shoes online and the website asked for a tip.

In Australia.

Jennens, they're platform shoes to give me a few extra inches in height.

Guess "name and shame" might be particularly accurate here

bruh didn't meant to put you on the spot. no shame though, get those lifts - the boots look nice.

still incredibly fucked for a web retailer of any kind to even have a tipping option, let alone for clothing. like what am I paying extra for? the privilege of browsing your fucking stock?

Just wait until you get a tip prompt on a self-checkout kiosk.

Yeah, it's happened to me a couple of times.

That's when you tip yourself for your diligent work bagging groceries by not scanning a thing or two.

Pretty much, but I have no idea who the tip is going to in that case. Last time it happened to me, there was no button to not leave a tip. The options were 20%, 25%, 30%, and Custom, with 25% as the default. I had to hit Custom and type 0.00.
