Best places for dancing shoes (hidden compartments, even better)?
I've been searching online for some new stripper platforms, but it's difficult to choose when they're all so pricey and you can't even try them on. If you have found a pair that both look great and are comfortable for dancing in for hours on end, would you mind sharing where you got them from? Also, I'm not sure how easy this would be to find, but are there any that have hidden compartments in the platforms? One girl I used to work with bought a clear pair where you lift up the sole and can put tips in the platforms (not quite tipjar as they have visible slots in the platforms). She found them on eBay, which isn't particularly helpful. While her clear platforms look great, I thought an opaque pair might be better as any cash inside wouldn't be visible :D The managers at my club are really greedy and demand 40-50% of all money made including tips, when they help you minimally (not at all in most cases) as well as tip outs to the house mom. It would be nice to keep my tips safe at least...
Cheers in advance.

Google has results for 'tip jar stripper heels'. If you can't find an opaque pair, I would get a clear pair then put on a couple coats of heavy-duty spray paint. Use masking tape around the edges of any areas you don't want to get the colour on.
If your club allows tall boots -- like knee- or thigh-high -- here's what I used to do: I wore multiple layers of athletic over-the-knee socks under them, two if not three pairs. This was to help cushion against bruising but I soon discovered the fringe benefit of being able to stuff bills inside them when I was in a hurry, or letting customers slip bills into them as part of a show. So get sm tall boots & use them to multiple advantage.

I got these, 5" to get me used to high heels: http://www.snaz75.com/pl-lip-109.html I broke them in wearing around the house, they are comfy

I think having opaque tip jar shoes defeats the purpose of having tip jar shoes. The point is that customer see they are supposed to tip you, so if you're covering that up, they just look like shoes with a random slot. Your best bet is a purse, a garter, or to run your money into your locker after every sale.
As for not being able to try on shoes -- go to a local sex store and try on a few brands and sizes to figure out which fit best on you, then just order them online. Or, only order online from places with generous return policies where you aren't stuck paying shipping twice. Worst case scenario, you can probably sell a brand new pair of shoes to another dancer at the club for as much as you paid for them online, if not more if you found a great deal.

Yes^. Yandy let me return, only twice though. I went to Lover's Lane (chain of adult stores) to get an idea of how the shoes run, size-wise.

.
well, it seems like she wants the opaque ones so she can hide money from the managers? This sounds like a very stressful place to work, is there a club around that doesn't require this?? I've never heard of a dancer hiding money from a manager like that....
