I got my item and went to the register to pay for it, and the credit card screen gave the price, and then displayed a menu for tips (it was specifically labeled as being for a "tip" amount). This tip menu had three options, in USD amounts (not percents), none of which was 0 dollars. There was no option to skip or "no tip" or anything like that. I would have had to refuse to pay and put the item back.
I suppose I could have, but I was buying food for my daughter, who was with me and was hungry.
It wasn't that much money overall, but the minimum tip amount was a pretty large percentage of the total cost. Five years ago it would have just been bundled into the cost of the item.
