    Apparently you and Tyler, beacause i typed 'bux' instead of dollars, and had the gall to write 'halp' (generally used as a comical form of "help") at the end.

    Got you and the other guy mixed up. Who was offended? Apparently the two people who answered this post.

    Clearer for you now?

    OK.
    If it is at a "box store" (Best Buy), then slip the guy a 20.
    If it is a small mom and pop place, no tip is needed since it is probably the owner doing the work anyway.

    And yes, spelling word like snoop dog will get you made fun of.

    It seems some people here are a bit uptight. Spelling like Snoop Dogg? For saying 'bux'? I'm sorry but that's monumentally stupid.

    Got my question answered already, but thanks for throwing in an answer along with the spelling lecture. Although you left the s off 'word'. Or were you trying to be hip and say 'word', like Snoop Dogg?

    Also, it's called a "big box store", not just a "box store". How dare you type such a thing? Almost as bad as me typing "halp". Careful, it's a slippery slope to the misspelling sinner's world where I reside.

    There is a big difference between a simple misspelling and an intentional "I am trying to be cool" misspelling.
    "box store or "big box store" is the same as "soda" or "pop".
    Look, I tried to be nice however, you obviously are not willing to accept the "halp" so, good luck with your future.

    Lol, my future? Take it easy, bub. As for your "help" laced with condecension, I'll pass, thanks :). Hint: rethink how you "try to be nice".

    PS- posing in front of your car like that makes you cool... When we women see that we usually wonder what the guy's compensating for. ;)
