When I was a front end supervisor for a Party City, we had a woman who came in a couple of times, and wanted her veteran's discount. She didn't want to give her name, and said her right to privacy meant she didn't have to show her VA status on any ID. The second time she came in, she said she was the wife of a veteran. We told her we don't give discounts to spouses of veterans, only to spouses of active-duty military personnel. She didn't like that much either.
Basically though she was none of the above. She was just a junkie who wanted clearance stuff at an additional discount so she could sell it cheap to a flea market guy she knew. Here in The Villages, a LOT of people wear their "Veteran's" baseball caps everywhere they go. Even the ones who aren't veterans. I've met a few of them. It's definitely not a lot of people, but one bad apple spoils the whole bunch. It's insulting to actual veterans, when non-vets wear vet insignia or try to get discounts for being fake veterans. |

Not the server’s fault for a corporate policy but I wonder how well it would go over if you had a one tip per table policy and put the single tip in the check that received the discount. For some reason I believe that the two checks would then be seen as separate and each worthy of separate tips even thought they weren’t worthy of separate discounts.

I'm guessing that the checks were separated at the end and I'm sure it all had to be rung up as 1 table when she was putting in the order. You probably could have gotten the military discount for everyone instead of the $10 promo.
I can understand the frustration but it's just a system issue. |

I misread a post, and when I realized I had made a mistake, I deleted the post...

I agree with the OP, I too had a similar situation. 4 of us go to dinner, both couples have the 10$ OFF card. We both presented our cards when our separate checks came and we were informed by the waiter that only one card per table could be used. Sure enough the fine print on the card says “One offer per table”. Who reads the fine print until now, so our friend put his 10$ OFF card back in his pocket, to be used next time. Yes, I agree with the OP a strange policy.

This does not say ‘per table’. IMO, this refers to the person/couple per check holding the coupon, not the other people that might have a different discount on a different check. Bonefish doesn’t want 1 person/couple per check to apply multiple discounts.
