Tipping 1/4

Something not done in Japan

I can be described as someone quite kechi1 And all my friends know this fact about me So why do I like living in a place with takai2 bukka3? One reason is no tipping at every restaurant

Notes:

1 Kechi（けち）＝ stingy 2 Takai（高い）＝ expensive (can also mean tall or high) 3 Bukka（物価）＝ cost of living, price in general
