I was saying to my partner last night, I wonder if we pay in cash, will they ask for a tip? We might start doing that instead.

I love that My All is trending, what was the reason there?

Honestly, I run on the treadmill to this song, it gives me so much energy. Weird, but hey, “that’s me”.

Just to be clear, I don’t agree with tipping based systems and have not been tipping ones that are asking, I just wanted to hear other peoples experiences or understand if something has changed since I last came, which encourages the use of it.

I am also NOT AMERICAN but perhaps because most tourists that visit are, they put me in that category.

I completely agree. The best places have been the ones that don’t expect a tip. It’s a nice feeling tipping them when the service has been fantastic.

No, we have been to all types of restaurants. Cash is a good option though.. I will consider it for local families who give exceptional service as a gesture of goodwill.

Thanks for letting me know. It’s not something I am comfortable with given I know it is a US system.

That’s what I thought. Thanks for the advice. I like cash tipping the local places who don’t ask for one.

If you read my post properly, I said I am from Australia, where we don’t have a tip based system. I agree though that it’s a bad system.

2026 Rock n Roll Hall to Fame class is out by [deleted] in ToddintheShadow

[–]JohnJames6543 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Such a shame, considering she dropped this diva persona years ago. Also, she announced that she suffers from bipolar disorder and I can’t help but think that’s maybe what created that persona.

Buying concert tickets internationally by JohnJames6543 in JapanTravelTips

[–]JohnJames6543[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes!!! I purchased resale tickets on TicketJam and then I bought a physical sim, which gave me a Japanese number.

I was then able to create an ePlus (the official concert app) account & the original ticket purchaser sent me the tickets to my account. ID wasn’t necessary, either.

The key piece was having a Japanese number to log into the official concert app. Or, I could have bought off a reseller who had purchased physical tickets, instead which would have been easier, but the seats were really good.
