When you order groceries online from Publix, you have the option to choose curbside pickup. This is a great service for those who want the convenience of online shopping without having to lug their groceries home.
But what about tipping? Is it expected or even appreciated?
Here’s what you need to know about tipping for Publix curbside pickup.
While there is no official policy from Publix about tipping for curbside pickup, it is generally accepted that you should tip your driver. After all, they are doing the work of loading and unloading your groceries, and often in less than ideal weather conditions. A good rule of thumb is to tip 10-15% of your total bill, or $5-$10 for smaller orders.
Of course, whether or not to tip is always up to you and you should never feel pressured to do so. If you had a particularly good experience or your driver went above and beyond, then by all means, show your appreciation with a tip. But if you’re on a tight budget or didn’t have a great experience, then there’s no shame in skipping the tip.
So there you have it – there’s no right or wrong answer when it comes to tipping for Publix curbside pickup. It’s simply up to you to decide what feels right in the moment.
