Yeah, this one is interesting to me. I go out with friends, and we split the bill every time. They're even happy to split it differently for couples and singles. Never been an issue. Maybe it's a regional thing??

It was an option on the POS we had. Just ask at the beginning and it gives you the option to start split. Iโ€™m pretty sure you could do it in process too but I just always asked at the beginning. I live in BC.

Split meaning equal shares, or split as in each person pays for what they ordered?

[โ€“] MellowSnow@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

Ah, good point. I was referring to each pays for what was ordered. Although, I think equal splits are typically not an issue either. I do live in a pretty touristy area - no clue if that affects it somehow.
