As far as the $20 on $18 thing, whatever. If all you have is a 20, fine. If you have another single, throw it in there. I know Mbillie's getting railed in this thread, but he was right--just add a buck to every drink price, nits of the world.

mbillie obviously isn't getting railed for thinking it's a buck/drink. he was getting railed for being generally retarded (including his ludicrous claim that you should tip an increasing amount per drink in a large order).
as far as the rounding down for several drinks things goes, i think most people generally acknowledge that getting 4 drinks for a single person is less work for the bartender than getting 4 drinks for 4 separate people, and rounding down reflects this view, which is both fully rational and fully fair. (you only need to initially approach the customer and take his order once, you only have to make 1 trip to the register, frequently a large order has many of the same drink which saves time, etc, etc.)
