We that shop at the commissary have seen it time after time. The baggers that bag your items for you upon checkout, and then expect that you will allow them to take your items out to your car, put them in for you, and then expect a tip from you.
Some get highly upset at you if you don't have any cash on you at the time, or you only have a few items, and can handle taking the items out yourself.
What does everyone think? Should it be expected that I will allow the bagger to take my items out every time and receive a tip, or should the bagger understand that some of us prefer taking the items out to our car ourselves?

At all commissaries around the world the baggers work for tips only. So I feel that if they bag your groceries then a tip is deserved. How much you tip is up to you. I tip anything from $1 to $5 for bagging my groceries. Especially in the summer time since a lot of dependent High School kids work as baggers.

PO3 Miller,
I feel that the bagger should always be tipped. As far as I know, the only pay they receive is the tips we give them. At least they're working for their money, unlike the panhandlers I see begging outside of the gates. If we didn't have baggers, the line would be much longer because the cashiers would have to do the bagging.
I've never let them carry my bags to the car, and I tip them 10% of my total bill. If I don't have extra cash on me, I use self-checkout instead.
