We tipped a couple of times in NZ, because the service was so pleasant and extra-good. We were followed out of the cafe by the confused server, holding our "forgotten" money. But most kiwi service was so much better than in the US, where servers expect 15 to 20% no matter what. I'm stopping now, to keep from ranting about the tipping culture.
