Someone told me you can have a tip dinner where you serve the food but for everything else you have to tip for it (fork, napkin, ect.)
Has anybody have expericence with one of these? how much should people tip for these things? Any help is appreciated.

you do it as a fundraiser. For example if it is a spagetti dinner you charge say $3 for the ticket and you are served a plate of spagetti but if you want a drink or salad or anything else you tip the waiter for it. Im trying to find out how much you would tip? A quarter or $.50 or a dollar. the youth at my church want to do and I have never done one. Thanks

I have never heard of this.Would this be something you are hosting in your home?If so I think it would be rude to ask your guests for money.

Only tip Dinner I've ever heard of is if the waitress serves you. If you are served and treated well you usually leave a tip from 10 to 15% of what the bill comes to, but if the service is less then 85 to 100% you tip according to how well or how much you feel the service given you was. I have left a table and told the waitress I'd like to give her a tip and said: "Don't ever wait on me again", and laid a dollar on the table.

If you are talking about a fund-raiser, I think I know what your talking about. My g-ma went to one, and your meal was included in your purchase price, but then you had to pay X amount for an item. The items were randomly printed on a pIEce of paper, so you would pay say $5.00 and then pull out a slip. There would be a round for what your dinner would be served on ie. bowl, dinner plate, saucer, etc then another round for what you would eat it with IE fork, spoon, knife, chopsticks. If you ended up with soup in a saucer, you might want to re-buy, that would cost $10 , $5 to put the first choice back and $5 for a new slip. My grandparents had a great time said it was a laugh to see someone eating steak with a spoon in a bowl.

I'd say do a valuntary amount, depending on the people who come, you might end up with a lot more than if you had a set price

I should hope that if I show up at such an event, I had received ample warning to empty the piggy bank of change.

Take a wad of bills, put them in a hat, and tell the server to close their eyes and pick one
