i started off dancing in nz, where my club had its own dollars printed up which guys tipped with on stage, so used to this system, when i moved to australia, my club manager told me they had no tipping money, and tips on stage are not expected at all.
at the time i was quite pissed off,it sounded stupid.he told me how slutty and desperate it lookes begging for a dollar.
how TRUE this is.
im back in nz, andf went to work in my old club thursday night. i made about $8 in stage tips ( as opposed to the $100 or so the other husslers made) how sad it looks when chicks go up to customers stretching out their garters asking for a dollar tip. geez go beg on the streets girls. you spent most of your stage time asking for tips, not putting on a show, and you expect to get paid for this?!
i understand fully now, why some clubs choose not to have dollar bills printed. if the customer wants to tip, he can tip a big one, or not at all.![]()
sounds greedy, but dollar tips looks seedy

So people who come from one place to go to another place when it closes can't use any excess they had from the other place.
Nah... my philosophy is that if I do not ask.. I will never get it (tips in this case).
Some customers don't go tip you when you're on stage. Sometimes they don't go to the stage because they're in a conversation at their table, they're too late after another customer, or they're being lazy and they'll tip me when I go to their table instead of coming to the stage. I never would ask for a tip though, be it a dollar or a thousand dollars, it doesn't sound right. Even pizza guys don't ask for dollar tips. That's like a friend saying "where's my birthday present" or "can you throw me a baby shower", annoying. I always treat tips like an unexpected gift instead of a standard thing.
