Anti virus software.
I bought a McAfee one from Argos a month ago, it cost just over a tenner.
Part of the Ts&Cs was signing up to auto-renew. It didn't say how much so I did a bit of digging. Wasn't easy to find but eventually I found it was over £120!
I've jumped the hoops finding the auto renew on their website and no surprise I've turned it off. They asked why, "because the auto renewal price is bloody ridiculous!"

Great side dish or standalone snack, just like the crispy seaweed you might get from the Chinese takeaway.

It's the same net effect if it's not on the bill. The employer gets taxed on the net amount.
Either way, the tip is taxable income for the staff. Most restaurants operate a tronc system, whereby tips are pooled and shared. Tax is deducted from each staff member's share.

Unless you work at Le Gavroche where the 13% service charge goes to the owner, Michel Roux Jr (formerly of Masterchef), and none of it goes to the serving staff.

I really like making a champ with it in. Potatoes boiled with skins on. Some butter, creme fraiche, grated cheddar and Parmesan with some kale. Lightly mash!
