I've heard that you can take the amount of tax that you're paying, and double it, and it will be close to 15% tip, depending upon where you live (we have 8% tax, so doubling tax will give 16%).
I try to approximate that way, but STINK in math, so I always give it to dh, and he tells me how much to put down for tip. I think he tries to figure 15%. Although, we've heard we're supposed to be tipping 20% now. Ugh!
