Re: Waitress gives herself tip on my Credit card

It is a preautorization on the credit card, not an issue, when it actually clears the account it'll charge the right amount.
THis is standard in the restuarant game, they take a preautorization for enough to cover the tip, and then the charge actually goes through for the amount you signed for.

does this differ from state to state?

Actually from restuarant to restuarant. I managed a bank for 3 years, and dealt with this complaint daily. Also pay at the pump gas does the same thing, some stations preauthroize a dollar to make sure the card is active, others $100 to make sure you can pay for the gas.
Also see my edit.
