Same in Finland. The price you see is the price you pay. And we have no tipping culture, it's a part of your JOB to be kind and helpful for the customers.
Same in Oz. Price includes the 10% GST. And no one really tips here.
I am 52 lived in the USA my entire life and I have complained about this since my first purchase. I never want to do math…EVER!!!!
America, what a dump.
If there's a service fee I'm not giving you a tip
That’s not standard for the US (except the tax part)
Before Macron…. France was such a fair a balanced culture.
It's so good to live in a civilised country, where we have rules to avoid exploitation and hiden fees!
It’s terrible to eat out and have to pay for a bunch of stuff extra and their 20 to 25 percent tip they have you put is so ridiculous.
Same as France in India
When I first went to the US I bought something for $9.99. Give them ten dollars, get looked at like I'm stupid..
This would have been a much better video if both final bills would have been roughly the same but the American one is $50 and the French on is €15. That is the propogandist slight of hand.
The real difference is not that in the US the prices are higher because of these taxes and fees (they are not), but that someone in France has no idea how much of the bill was for taxes and fees that the restaurant owner has to pay. It is hard to argue you would like them lower if you do not know how much they are.
America is a corporation, it is not a country….
The commercial scam is legalized is in America where nothing is real and you have to be alert since they are creative in always finding new methodes to scam you. Oh, even the smile is not real.
The tax one depends from state to state. Some states have no sales tax.
Same in Mexico
This is another race to the bottom. If any restaurant listed the full price then stupid people would think that restaurant is more expensive and go to the one with the lowest listed price.
I LOVE UR VIDEOS
Super ridiculous that US is the only country in the world to do this. I would not pay for fast food for that price.
Yes, yes, yes!! Aghh, the USA is so fake, greedy and frankly awful. We will not likely be going there on holiday ever again.
Better not to eat in restaurant in the US. Just eat once a year in the restaurant.
why buying stuff in the us sounds like a scam? lol
That sounds like a total scam. Wt actual F???!!!
If I owned a restaurant in the US, I would pay my employees, the actual prices would be on the menu so no surprises and tipping* would be at the discretion of the customer and it would be split between everyone at the end of the month because running a restaurant is a team effort. These rules are ridiculous.
Well, I hear in America we are smarter than everyone!
WE are the smartest!!!
Another reason why every country is better than the US and why republicans suck ass.
Nah if I go to a place and there is absolutely anything on that check other than tax and I'm not the one that gets to decide whether or not I leave a tip, I am calculating the tax I am paying exactly the food and the tax and I am never coming back to that place again.
Y'all actually put up with this garbage?
Restaurant recovery fee???
So they add a Service fee and at the same time expect a 20% tip ??? Huhhh???😭
As a Brit, I'll never understand why the US doesn't include sales tax on the prices listed in shops/restaurants etc. Makes literally no sense. Only country I've been to that works in that way
These fees are extremely rare… I think. If I would ever see several fees like these, I'd make a fuss to the manager and never will return to such a restaurant.
Indian restaurants are like american, even food delivery apps. Plenty of additional charges, sometimes they are about 25 to 50 percent of the actual food bill
So…what did she ordered for 13.50?
Jobs will pay your bills, business will make you rich but investment makes and keep you wealthy! I pray everyone here becomes extremely successful
Wait till you use UberEats 😂
as a european, i never understood why they dont tell you the full price or just… use some of their fees sharingly
Whats funny that in my experience in the UK, tipping actually offends workers. Like when I was on the first time going to mcdonalds without an adult, i tipped my worker and she got so offended.
I very rarely eat out at a sit down restaurant here in the States for this very reason. I’ll order and then pick it up myself and no, not leaving a tip for picking it up myself either.
This is like the contracts the telecom company makes you sign up! Westerners are complicated _ beating around the bush!!!
The good old rip off festival all day long. Only in America. Always with a smile.
🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲❤️
I HATE how places do that in the USA. It just sets people up to be angry and sometimes even tip poorly because they didn’t budget for all that. Just charge what it is and put the tax IN THE PRICE! Sheesh.
Oh and if you do not leave a tip in the US, they will chase you down the street afterwards.
America, the most over taxed country in the world.
Plus many in countries you don't leave any tip at all. You just don't.
A 5% restaurant recovery fee, a 5% fee to help us go green.. what's that, a f*ing fundraiser? 🤣 that's how the US are "the land of possibilities" for enterpreneurs. Close the restaurant and go get a job, you beggar 🤣
Restaurant recovery fee???
US vs France? IT'S US VS EVERY OTHER COUNTRY BRUHHHH
