Tip your LBS

how about just asking them what they like?

I know one guy in particular used to live on Swedish fish and sugar free rockstar, then he moved to Panera salads, and now he works for Titos burritos.

I almost never wait in line.


EDIT: and dont wait till the work is done.. give whatever you give before the work is done...

This is a fact. (And much appreciated) 😀

I must be a bike mechanic. Never had a beer or cups of coffee.
Diet Coke ftw. Actually diet root beer if you love me.
 
Since I love everyone at my favorite shop, and they all have different likes/dislikes, I try to take turns on everyone's favorite snack: cookies, bananas, chips (whole grain) & salsa, pizza.

Who is next anyway? 😉
 
You would be surprised how many bike guys don't drink beer or coffee.

Some avoid gluten and dairy too.

Through the years I've donated many cases of beer to my co-workers. I think it's the most common tip. I think it'd be rude to tell the customer I don't drink so I just go with the flow 😀

Beer is by far the most common tip. At our shop, only one person drinks. Next would be pizza and cookies. I don't eat meat or dairy, but everyone else does.

It's definitely the thought that counts though! Maybe consider writing a good review of the shop on yelp or google.
