    Default Tipping

    This question is for the dancers as well as anyone who knows the tipping rules:
    I just want to know what is the appropriate amount, or the good tipping amount to tip dancers when they come and approach your table, but you don't want a lap dance from them?

    some dancers approach 100's of guys a night, why would a tip even be necessary for an unsolicited approach? followed by a turn down?

    When I invite girls over to the bar for talk, I always give them at leat 5 or 10 if you have a 2 way converation for as little as 5 minutes,, often 20 if they are really hot., but I am the one soliciting them, so the burden is on me.

    I don't get having to pay a girl for her walking up to a table.

    I never expect a tip just for approaching a table. Now, if I sit and talk with you for more than 9 minutes... yes, it's nice to be tipped. A dollar a minute is pretty good, but still not expected.
    Don't you ever sleep?
    Not at night...that's when the stars have rather better things to do. They're coming out, shining, that sort of thing.

    What I meant was, if they come and sit and chit chat with you for a while (5 minutes) or so, but you don't want a LD from them, then I was wondering what's the minimum to tip them.

    Hey, be nice! If the OP wants to tip, let her tip!

    I would say, $10 for 5 minutes.

    If it's just 5 minutes, you don't need to tip them.

    If it's more than 10 minutes, you're enjoying their company but have NO intentions of getting a dance, you might tip them, but that's your choice. You're never under any obligation to tip them to talk to you and they're under no obligation to stay. If they are trying to get you to do a dance, they can ask and you either accept or decline. If they want to stay after that, that's their choice...but if you WANT them to stay, you may have to tip...that's your decision. If you don't tip and the girl leaves, and you wanted her to stick around, you should have stuck some green in garter.

    How much is up to you but I'd say 5 bucks for every 5-10 minutes is a decent amount, I guess...maybe more if it's busy and you want to ensure she sticks around for a bit.

    I never tip a dancer who comes by my table on her own. Now if we end up going to VIP having drinks and dances, well that's a different story.

    If I've been sitting for a few minutes, and you don't want a dance, it's gonna take at least $20 to keep me there for another 15 minutes. Anything less than that is appreciated, but I'll be moving on right away.

    If a dancer just wants to come to my table and shoot the shit for awhile and never asks me for a dance, I may tip her $10 or $20 just for the nice conversation. But if she invests alot of time chatting with me and finally DOES ask for a dance that I don't want, I'll tip her $20 - $50 , depending on how long she stayed w/me.

    Lopaw, you are awesome!

    When I go as a custy, Ill tip a girl normally around $5 for up to 10 minutes or so if she gives me good convo or is clever with her sales pitch, or at least will buy her a drink if she wants one.

    OK, that's a different story...

    If I'm in a club to see one of my favs I will tell the dancer that before she sits down or right after-no tip.

    I'f none of my favs are working or it's a new club I will generally tip a lady $5 to $10 if she sits for a few minutes but it really depends on the situation. If I'm not interested and I'm giving her the cold shoulder but she just won't leave I'm not going to tip her. On the other hand I have tipped pleasant girls who just didn't appeal to me as much as $20 for sitting, being nice, and leaving with no drama when I decide I don't want to buy dances.

    I'd say 5 to 20 is good and that if she is above average in looks, customer service and conversation.

    Obviously not he "wanna dance" type. Although there is nothing wrong with that I just don't find it to be very tip worthy.

    Fine

    Default Re: Tipping

    I don't tip anything just "for approaching me". If i've been a the club for some time and have seen them on stage but didn't approach the tip rail, i will usually tip them $5 in appreciation for their show. If I don't plan to get a dance I make that known very early on, but if they continue to hang around and it's awkward and/or no conversation -$0. OTOH- good convo and a pleasant demeanor gets a $20.

    So plain girls get less "thanks for your time" $$$ than hot girls do? Somehow that doesn't seem right.

    To the OP -- none unless I am interested; the lack of money gets the point across, if the girl isn't paying attention to my demeanor or what I actually say.

    how is it not fair that hot girls get more money?

    we are in the business of selling sexual fantasy. looks are a big part of that...

    when i go as a customer i only buy dances from hot girls. why would i buy from the plain girls? it just doesnt do it for me.... the same would go for paying a girl to stick around. i would only do it for a hot girl unless the plain girl had a super exceptional personality.
    The best thing i have heard in a strip club to date:
    customer: we should get married right now! we should get a shotgun marriage!
    me: uhh... i think you are misunderstanding what a shotgun marriage means. A shotgun marriage means you knock me up and my daddy shows up at your door with a gun and forces you to marry me and raise the baby. You mean elope.
    customer: hmm... nah actually i will take the shotgun marriage. At least then we would be having sex.

    Yes, it is. Hot girl makes an effort/spends money to look hot to impress you. Mediocre looking girl doesn't, & usually just rolled out of bed & threw on some worned out dirty looking shit. Why spend money on someone who didn't make an effort? I make sure i smell good, look good with & without clothes to give you a fucking boner...pay me! That's just my opinion, & I hope I don't get shit for it. LOL.

    To the OP, if a song(lapdance) costs a certain price...I would pay that amount for every song she has stayed there chatting with you.

    Now lets say if she has been there talking to you for half hour or an hour, same as the vip room. Now this is obviously for someone who you like and told to stick around for a talk.

    Haha totally agreed! Beautiful dresses, hair, make-up, nails, and gym membership all cost money so tipping a really hot girl is really just like helping her maintain. Its like saying "I'm not gonna get a dance but I appreciate the work you've put in into looking so good and making me feel special for even talking to me."

    Esp if you enjoy staring at a lady's lovely implants, you should tip a little since she went through pain, time, and money for them.

    lopaw tips exactly how i would expect to be tipped. and i've danced for her so i know from first-hand experience. personally, if i sit and have a conversation and no tip is given, i ask...maybe it's rude but my time costs something, whether it be dancing or having a conversation.

    Wow, tip the same per song as a lapdance, whether you're getting one or not....what a gig! OP, please don't listen to this.

    Last week a u-verse salesman spent 1.5 hours with me trying to sell his product. Often the conversation was very friendly and casual. Ultimately, I decided not to get u-verse. How much should I have tipped him for his time?

    You & Athena seem to have missed my point. Hot girls are certainly more likely to make money because they are hot...of course. But, once a girl falls into the "no thank you" category, why should she get any more money from me than if she was ugly? Rejecting a girl means she wasn't what you wanted, hot or not. At that point, hot makes no difference.
