Editor’s pick – Comment of the month

The article that generated the most comments this month was How much should you tip? Obviously a very hot topic!

Readers’ views ranged from those who supported the idea of tipping generously to those who felt tipping should be abolished altogether. To read the full chain of comments, please refer to the article page. But the following comment from Bill raised a particularly interesting point.
