    Default Certain "time" 4 $$?

    I was wondering, as far as certain "times" like the end/beginning of months, is the $ to be made in clubs more difficult? Meaning, like for custys, bills/mortgages/etc. due, so they don't spend in clubs? I know the economy is down in general. I'm hoping in the next couple weeks to try & sell outfits, & close out my inventory as much as possible. I know as it gets closer to Xmas, things will tighten up? I think I might try to post some stuff here on Market place too. Ebay sounds a lil' sketchy, now. Hey, thanks!

    Go as much as you can before December 1st. It always seemed to me that once the month of December sarted that the girls were having trouble buying Christmas.

    We get the opposite here. The clubs I work at are close to the malls, so when the wives are out shopping, the guys are at the bar. It also seems like people are full of holiday spirit and hopefully, Christmas bonuses, so we do okay. Not better, but at least status quo. Summer months are the ones that suck here due to vacations and BBQ's.

    Whirlerz, don't forget that midwest heating bills are forecast to be something like 50% higher this year than last year - thanks to the massive increase in natural gas and heating oil prices. As heating bills start hitting hard in the second half of November, you can probably expect 'discretionary spending' by club customers to take even more of a hit than it already has !

    Then add in 'holiday spending' needs ... where people generally start making heavy expenditures towards Christmas presents (is it still PC to mention Christmas on SW ?) right after Thanksgiving - thus taking an even deeper bite out of 'discretionary spending' by club customers. The only silver lining is that certain industries do pay 'Christmas Bonuses', meaning that the Christmas-New Years week might be very busy in the clubs.

    Once the first of the year rolls around, lots of bad things happen. Self-employed people are faced with making an estimated income tax payment on January 15th. High earning salaried/hourly employees who saw their take-home paychecks jump by $100 a week once they crossed the Social Security tax ceiling in September or October or November suddenly see that extra money disappear once the new year starts. Credit card monthly statements which include december Christmas shopping expenditures start showing up in January.

    There is money to be made regardless of the time of year. Granted, I have noticed a pattern here in Australia in that working on the night prior to a public holiday isn't as lucrative as the clubs would love for us to believe. The only reason is that the culture here is that one goes out and drinks (binge drinking, for instance) so you can 'sleep it off' on the public holiday.

    Personally, I found working Christmas eve hit or miss tho' working the week leading up to Christmas can be pretty good (everyone has the Christmas cheer around this time and hence loosen up their spending).

    Seasonally, winter is the roughest where it is coldest. Summer isn't necessarily the most lucrative time of year... the later half of the year when there are sports finals and what-not is the best. Monthly I always try to not work near the end of the month as most peoples' bills are due around this time and even here in Australia you'll have dancers coming in to make the extra cash.

    November isn't the best month in the clubs on the Gold Coast due to Schoolies.

    Just play it by ear really... and stay positive.

    One thing I wanted to mention....the night before Thanksgiving, for those in the tri state area (not too sure about anywhere else) is the biggest bar night of the year behind St. Patty's Day. I always make sure I am booked for that night and really do well. Normally 2.5 X what I usually make.

    Good luck all.
