>In the US, you pay for your meal + tax + 15% tip and call it a day.

Yeah, I think this is what Europeans have such a hard time with - why should you pay more than what the sticker says.

In US we accept that more readily, because the combined price: sticker + tax + tip is still smaller than what an official sticker price would be in say Europe, and you get more for the same price, you get the chance to reward someone.
