Yeah, anything $5 and under is probably going to be fast food. But you can often get quite a lot for that price. Lots of places have dollar menus.

A sit-down restaurant is going to be more like $10 per person including tax and tip. Of course depending on the restaurant it can be much more.

As for tips, you don't have to tip for fast food. Tip at a sit-down restaurant where someone serves you, and tip for food delivered to your house. 15-20% is about right for a tip.

I would pick up any bills I found somewhere, regardless of how difficult. Quarters I will pick up if they're just lying there, but if it was in a mud puddle, probably not. 5 or 10 cents I will usually pick up, definitely not in a puddle. Pennies I rarely pick up at all.

If two items had a difference of $1 in a sit-down restaurant, it wouldn't make a difference to my choice. On a fast-food menu it might. I can't imagine two similar things having a price difference of $5 or more, though.
