   Is “stiffing” an American word for something less than savoury? I think I prefer not to know what it means, just curious.

   “To stiff” means to cheat out of money owed. Maybe a play on stuffing and stiffing? That’s all I can think of.

   A lot of restaurants charge extra for substituting a baked potato for a standard side item. I think the implication is he would pay the increased price of the meal by reducing the size of his tip to the server.

   Sure, and I’ll substitute dog food for the jambalaya you just ordered.

   Shouldn’t tell him in advance you will be stiffing him – who knows what will happen to your food.

   Common phrase, to stiff somebody on the tip. Still not sure how it’s supposed to work here though.
