The sandwich lady at Kona's gave me a 60 cent discount when I ordered my Destroyer with guacamole instead of cheese on the substitution. Guacamole is really an addition, not a substition, and I knew that so I fully expected my sandwich to cost more when I ordered it as such. It totally makes sense for it to be more expensive than cheese since the materials for guac are more expensive to buy than the materials for cheese.
I ordered the sandwich to go since I knew it'd be more comfortable in my airconditioned apartment than in the fanned restaurant. When I got back here and was eating it, I realized that discount was totally unnecessary and a nice thing to do. Basically, she charged me for a cheese addition instead of the guacamole addition.
Anyway, I figured I'd repay the favor and went back and gave her a five dollar tip. She earned it, the discount was a nice thing to do, she was very nice and almost apologetic about charging me more. And it was an excellent sandwich.
