Hi all, I'm traveling to seattle and am going to be trying a lot of coffees while im visiting. However, after looking at the prices, especially in downtown seattle being close to 10$ a cup (I get my coffee with oat milk), is it okay if I dont leave a tip? there are places charging 1.5$ for oat milk in a 12 oz hot coffee.

Additionally, I am not gonna sit at any of these cafes, I will order my coffee for takeout and have it elsewhere. ive been to a couple of cafes elsewhere where if I dont tip, it reflects on the coffee they make (too much foam even tho I asked for less, overly strong coffee when I ask for medium etc). In my mind, I am already paying for the coffee to be made in the way I want, and I am also expected to tip before I even get to try out the beverage I ordered.

Looking for different thoughts and perspectives on this!

Edit: Follow up question: do people usually leave a tip if they plan to sit at the establishment?

Basically the title. I have messed up so many games just by choosing the wrong bonus card in the start and losing just by that many points. How do you decide which to keep?

For example, if I see a nest bonus vs predator or omnivore bonus, I keep those because of the potential of more points but it always just so happens that I cant even have like 2-3 cards. What's your thought process behind keeping the bonus you keep? Also how do you choose which bonus card to keep mid game via a bird that allows you to draw a bonus card?
