$2 for pizza, $15-20 for cut & highlights.
nm

That's for a cut & full highlights though...
I don't know what she would charge for just a hair cut.

$5 for the pizza guy and $10 for a haircut and a pedicure. If nails too, tip more. Highlights, tip m
tip at least $10 when I eat out. I tell you one thing though, my pizza place always gets exactly what I order to me. If they didn't, I wouldn't tip as good. If I didn't get good service somewhere though, I would go some place else.

Any points on sightseeing in Maine and New Hampshire, just highlights that are most worthwhile. nm
