yes, it is actually as simple as abolishing tipping and having employers pay their employees more and employers can subsequently choose to up their prices for compensate. this way, things are actually normalized and not reliant on things of high variance.

Let's start over because with each reply we are further away from the original point.
The original thread was for a coupon. A reply was made remember to tip based on value.
A comment was made, and I'm paraphrasing, ...that it shouldn't be the customers responsibility to pay an employee when they should be getting fair wage... (which I agree with), however it eluded to giving a lesser tip. I say it because why otherwise would that statement be made.
My reply was based on that comment. It is a totally different debate, which by the way I agree with, but has no bearing on "you should be providing a tip based on original value of service".
You wrote "why otherwise would that statement be made." They made it in this thread because tips are being discussed. Now you can say that it isn't the place to discuss that if you feel that way.
In your last line, are you saying that you agree with the person you originally responded to or me?
Great Clips is dirt cheap compared to a regular salon. The coupon saves me money so I enjoy that savings.
At least 50% before coupon, around $10.
I normally do $20 with my current person because she does a great job EVERY time, plus she goes above and beyond without asking (i.e. shampoos and blows it out, uses products in my hair, rather than just a cut)
I won't go to anyone else.
To build a good relationship with someone in the service industry, tip them! Ask for them every time. If they go elsewhere, follow them (although Great Clips now makes this impossible but it used to be a thing when people would branch out on their own)

Deflecting? Your arguments are full of logical fallacies and *I'm* deflecting?
You being a past employer does not make your stance the correct one, nor does my being an employee make mine incorrect.
Now, if you want to give everyone here examples and details as to what your "business" was, how much you paid your "employees", why you didn't pay them a fair wage, and how requiring them to rely on customers to pay them through tips instead of you the "employer" paying them was a sustainable practice and fair to them, then go for it.
The original point you made was that abolishing tips would abolish businesses. It was pointed out that any business that relies on free or grossly underpaid labor is not a good business. As soon as that was pointed out, you immediately jumped to the 'appeal to authority' argument.
Tried on 7/31 and they received a message on their system saying:
"One-time Use code error"...., then "Not valid at this location" or something like that.
Don't know what 'barcode' you're speaking of...when I clicked on the link via my iPhone,
it just gives you a six-digit code;;
How are you getting a barcode???

Sorry, it was a alpha numeric code.
Yes, and the service would suck too
