Buying Drinks BS
Sunday, October 11, 2009 10:10 PM
There are a few clubs I frequent where there is the annoying "buy the lady a drink" push. I usually don't let it bother me and just say no except perhaps if I'm having an extended conversation with an atf.
Still, I'd like to hear from others how they might "creatively" deal with this issue. I just say "no" and be done with it. But others, I know, cave in to it and let it ruin their evening by feeling pressured and ripped-off.
I've thought of ways to get more aggressive in dealing with this so as to not be interrupted several times throughout an evening.
One way would be to just say I won't be buying any drinks this evening so don't bother me. Another way would be to offer a small tip in advance for not asking me again for a drink. Another way still would be to just to firmly say "no thank you" every time she asks which is what I usually do.
I'd like to hear how others deal with this problem.
Got something to say?
