Still potentially misleading. If the receipt doesn't say anything about the discount (which is not clear because we can't see what's above the total), then you can't tell. Again, a simple disclaimer should be enough. If there are things like "please open box before eating pizza", then this shouldn't be a problem.
If you're a regular at the place, you might know about the specials. If you just walk in one time and you don't see a label, a receipt like this will be misleading if it doesn't state the discounts and tip bases.
It common sense, tip off TOTAL bill NOT discounted prices, you got the same service and food so… tip accordingly of TRUE amount. It’s not “misleading” it’s a true fact, tip based of total.
Like I said before, you get $100 worth of drinks with a discount of half off so $50, you do NOT tip off $50. You got $100 worth of drinks and services so tip off that! Don’t like it, don’t go out. Don’t agree, then create a bill and call your govt reps, do not punish fellow humans because you “don’t agree”. We are all just trying to live. If anything, make your own food at home and there you go, NO TIP NEEDED… but no, you came out to get waited on therefore, provide tips accordingly, we are not just at the restaurant for pleasure…
As I said, it's not evident at all if those are full or discounted prices, so in the latter case it's a misleading number.
Anyway, I don't live in a place with broken wages and tipping system, so I don't have to deal with problems like this. Where I am wait staff gets adequate wages and tips are only a bonus on top of that.
