A lot of the time they seem to charge before you get the food on takeout, and I typically don't tip at that point. If something special is requested, or the service is really good (quick) I'll consider it. Yes they are spending a bit more on a foam tray, bag, condiments and utensils, but saving on labor involved in cleaning up too.
She made it a point to not charge me until my food was ready, which I didn't really like. Once my food is ready, I just want to grab it and leave, as it's already going to cool before eating it.
