Tipping protocol at curb side pickup

[DThomasC]

I filled an online cart at my grocery store. When I went to curb-side pickup, I gave the woman with my groceries a $5 tip. I did get out of the car, but only to open the hatchback. I'm no aristocrat used to tipping servants, but it seemed appropriate.

Not sure what the protocol is...

Sounds like the right thing to do to me.

I am doing pick up, not delivery. Most of the places I go are places I patronized when I could go there in person. They are all locally owned and I know some owners and some staff by name. So even if all someone does is carry my order from the back to the counter, these are people I know and I want to support so that when this is all over they will still have jobs and I will still have good local beer and local food. So I tip something although not quite as much as I did when there was "more" service. On the assumption that a delivery driver was local I'd probably tip something.
