Default Re: How much do you tip the pizza delivery guy?

I'm a former pizza boy, although I didn't work at a store that had a fee, I'm 99% sure they get paid the delivery fee as their gas money. The store I worked at (dominos) actually paid us a comission based on the value of the pizza we delivered, so I got 7% of the check (from the store as "gas money") + whatever the customer gave me for tip.

I feel the most important factor on tipping is how far away you live from the store (in regard to driving time) and the secondary factor should be how quickly it got there (which the driver can't always control). A buck + the change is acceptable, if you live in the middle of nowhere you should give another dollar.
