Re: Splitting the bill.
I pick up the check for the following reasons:
It is with my gf. It is a special occasion or I have a specific reason to be thankful to them. The amount of money is significant to them, but not to me. I am college-aged so a lot of my friends have no money, but $5 doesn't mean [censored] to me, so I'll just pick it up. Otherwise, I don't see a reason to pay for their food. |

Re: Splitting the bill.
What me/friends have been doing lately is having me pay on a CC/Debit and then taking the receipt and adding it to each of their tabs.
Unless I'm drunk, then I always pay for everyone. |

Re: Splitting the bill.
As a vegetarian who also doesn't drink, I hate the splitting the bill evenly idea.
Do people really get separate checks for five or so people? Most times I've been out, we usually have one check and people are able to figure out what they owe and throw it in. |

Re: Splitting the bill.
The only time I'd consider the roulette idea is when its between me and a group of guy friends (all of whom have jobs and $200 isn't much of anybody's back). This only goes for nights where the meal and drinks are pregaming (usually at a mexican restaurant).
This scenerio has been going on with my older friends who've graduated in the past 2 years and I will most likely be joining them in the next two months. It works out in the long run and plus the loser has his drinks paid for the rest of the night by the rest of the guys. |

One guy splurging makes another guy want to splurge, until everyone gets the most expensive meal on the menu. |

Re: Splitting the bill.
This all shouldn't be this complicated. When the check comes, do some simple arithmetic and figure out who owes what. With my good friends I am fine with splitting the food bill if it's a 5$ difference between them all but we take the drinks out of the equation because that tends to throw things off balance. Someone just owes it to someone for next time.
I really like the CC in a hat idea, but most of my friends I eat with regularly aren't gamblers. |

[/ QUOTE ] Ya ev wise whoever gets the most expensive dinner wins with the credit card game. It ends up being the same as everybody splitting evenly. |

Re: Splitting the bill.
How hard is it to look at the bill and cut it up five or six ways based on what people ordered? It's simple arithmatic, and who cares if someone gets shorted three bucks.
Edit: I like the CC in the hat idea. All my buddies gamble, I'll suggest that next time. |
