Yeah, this one is interesting to me. I go out with friends, and we split the bill every time. They're even happy to split it differently for couples and singles. Never been an issue. Maybe it's a regional thing??

Split meaning equal shares, or split as in each person pays for what they ordered?

[–] MellowSnow@lemmy.world 1 points 3 hours ago

Ah, good point. I was referring to each pays for what was ordered. Although, I think equal splits are typically not an issue either. I do live in a pretty touristy area - no clue if that affects it somehow.
