tip
There is a tattoo shop in town doing an anniversary special, any small tattoo for $35. I plan on getting something but I'm worried about under tipping. Should I do 15% of the special price or the price I think something that size would normally be?

Maybe give some free advice about: Etiquette?
When any business is having a special, it's customary to leave a 20% tip on what the price of the item or service SHOULD have been.
Of course it's different if there's one special item on a something like a restaurant menu, let's say half off well drinks, and you order an appetizer, dinner etc. then it's fine to tip on the total, disregarding how much the drink should have been.
Remember that the tattoo artists are probably slightly bumming out about the deal special, knowing that most people are cheap and will probably tip on the special price and they'll make less off the same tattoo. Then again, it will make up for it since they will have more clients than usual and most importantly, will try to satisfy you and turn you into a returning customer! So, if they do a great job let them know with a great tip and maybe next time they'll remember you and treat you a little better!

If it were me, I would probably do the tipping for the discounted price, and then add a couple dollars onto that. :-) Good luck!!!

You could always go halfway, as tipping for the special price might be a little low. It is a nice gesture, especially if you receive good service and are happy with the results. In the end, it's up to you. I would probably tip for the normal price, unless it's way higher than the special. I would say that tipping 20% or so is safe.
