From an assumptive position I tend to agree that people spend more on the card, however same as there are some who find it difficult to let go of cash, there are others who have a hard time looking at a bigger number when writing it.
Interesting idea about the bigger number vs. watching it disappear.

As I've mentioned in another thread, I HATE HATE HATE when a takeout place puts a tip line on the receipt rather than keeping a jar out, but I love places like Liliuokalani that put "girls" vs. "guys" or, especially, a list of the kids' names and where they'll be going to school in fall.

Totally agree in regards to the Panhandling for a tip on a take-out order. I can’t say I feel the same about putting out 2 tip cups. It aggravates me that we are surrounded by efforts to take sides. I fear the results if those who wish to divide us succeed.

C'mon, man, it's not "deplorables" and "snowflakes" or "conservative whackjobs" vs. "hippie liberals" or...maybe Major and Cal Coon and FLL can add to the dichotomies.
