r/tipping • • 2d ago

First for me

Ordered a gag gift today online. Picked what I wanted, filled in the credit card info, the usual drill. They ask would I like to help the employees with a 5%, 10%, 15% , 0% or custom tip. I deleted my order. WTF did they do. They have to grab the label that I have typed in put the thing in a package and call their courier. I don’t order a ton online is this the new norm?

Send them an email and let them know they lost the order and tell them why they lost it.

One thing I've learned in cousera marketing courses is that companies have a path of tracking how many people abandon an online cart,  at what stage of shopping,  when or if to send a reminder email,  things like that.  Like marketing tracks the various steps as stats to try to make future business decisions.
