If you tip, you should increase your tip to $5. Why? Even though the work remains the same, they are facing the same price increases as you. They also are now paying $3.00 rather than $2.50 for their gas.

In addition, you may have gotten a raise at your work this year. Did your "workload" increase to justify the raise, or was it mainly a COLA type of thing? Apply those same principles to the people you tip. -- Since you asked.
