Yes, and depends on how much the pizza is and how the weather is outside. Usually I tip somewhere between 3 and five dollars, but during snow-storms I sometimes tip ten (and have tipped twenty once.)

We don't tip in Australia.
When we went to Bali a few years ago, exchange rate confusion coupled with no comrhension of anything meant our luggage handler made AUS$40 in 2 days work.

15% at least, 20% for the waitress at Pizza Hut who's served me so many times that she gets my pizza started when she sees me walk in the door. ![Wink :wink:](./images/smilies/icon_wink.gif)

Depends on his attitude and how fast he gets the pizza to me. But it's usually 0-5 bucks unless we've ordered a ton of pizzas for a party or something.

No, it fucking pizza. Sorry, but he didn't come back and see if the box was empty and ask nicely if he could take the box out of my way. He didn't refill my 2 liter bottle of pepsi and he didn't ask if I wanted anything else and here's your check.
So no.

Nope, the delivery guys already get paid for delivering the pizza. Do you tip your mailman for delivering your mail? Do you tip the FedEx or UPS delivery guy when he delivers your parcel? Didn't think so, so why should I tip a pizza delivery guy then?

Tip them a couple bucks(mostly because the guys that do know me...and heck I'm friends with a couple of them.)
As fior the mailman, I get him a Christmas card with some money each year...so I guess I do tip him as well.

Depends
1)How fast my pizza got here (On time/early)
2)Condition of the pizza(If it is craptacular looking/burnt no tip!)
3)Attitude(If they are all like grumpy their life/career is over being pizza delivery people TS) no Tip
When I do tip it's usually 5 bucks for every 30 bucks spent.

I rarely get pizza delivered anymore, but I usually tip pretty well. My good friend Stan was a delivery guy for Papa John's for a number of years, and with the shit that drivers put up with, they deserve good tips.

I tip delivery people if they arrive quickly. I think that attitudes about tipping tend to depend on how financially strapped you are. If it's difficult to pay the bills, you probably won't be quite as eager to tip people for doing their jobs.

I try to tip well, at least back when I was buying pizza once a week.
WE, however, do meddle in the affairs of others.

When you eat in (like I do) every week and actually tip (college town; nobody tips because we're all poor) and the waitresses remember you (and they do if you tip) then the service improves drastically. ![Very Happy :D](./images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif)

Nope I don’t but then again there is no such thing as pizza delivery here.
If I want a pizza I better take my ass down to the local pizza restaurant and order it “Take Away”.
Not that it’s a big problem I have 5 different pizza places within a 10m walk.

I normally don't tip for anything other than really good service at a restaurant. I don't see the point in doing so, the persons already getting paid for the job in the price I'm paying, so why do the earn extra apart really exceptional service?
