Has the price of gas affected your strip clubbing?

Picking up on a comment potheadpl made in the "Oilmen's Delight" thread - has the price of gas affected your strip club visits (e.g. how often you go? how far you'll drive? how much you have left to spend?)

last commentWith a fill-up approaching 5 LDUs, I'll probably think twice about making a 3 hour round trip to Baltimore just to go clubbing. Luckily all my recent visits to Charm City have been tacked onto business related trips, so I get my mileage reimbursed.
The 20 minute trip to the Paper Moon is starting to look good, lol.

Not really, I'm sure it bugs escorts that drive 70,000 miles a year.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! NOT THE MOON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Supposedly, the magic price (last time around) was when gas went above $3.87 a gallon. Then it affected the public's spending habits.
But it's more than just gas: the increased transportation costs have to be passed along on businesses go under. Thereby the costs of goods & services all go up, leaving less money for lap dances.

Yes I reduced $1 I tip each trip to how much the gas price has gone up that week.

Not yet. I may bitch about the price but as long as the supply remains good, I will keep buying it.

Gas prices won't affect my strip clubbing. I'll crawl to the club on my hands and knees if I have to.

No, I drive a nicely fuel efficient car.

If I am going out to send $200-300 on whores, an extra $2-3 in gas money is not going to any impact on that.

Some dancers who don't drive and pay for gas to get a ride home might be willing to ride with me for free at the end of their shift. We'll just have to see if it's worth it on both sides of the equation.

Seriously now. We willingly pay extortionate prices for drinks in SCs, my beloved valet fees and assorted other rip-off charges just to pursue this hobby. Are a couple of extra bucks in gas charges for a SC journey really of any consequence to us?
And, please try to think kindly of all the world's hard-working oilmen slaving away for the common good of all. Surely we poor wretches are entitled to some small recompense for our labours?

No, but then my car gets great mileage.

Saw the damndest thing this afternoon on Ocean Drive here in Miami Beach There was a oldtimer on a bicycle with a dog on the sidewalk collecting donations in a plastic bucket that the dog would carry the handle in its'mouth up and down the sidewalk. Maybe we should start a collection operation up like that to recover the uptick in fuel prices. I agree with farmerart, it is not the oilmen who are most at fault. I'll support farmerart. It's the speculators that are driving up the cost, there is plenty of oil still.

I drive less than 5k miles a year now, so no, it doesn't affect me.

Ridiculous gas prices (I paid $4.26/gal yesterday) have not stopped or slowed down my SC visits.
I'd crawl across broken glass if I had to, in order to get my SC fix!

Maybe I'll cut back on an extra LD per week or maybe order one less drink..but stop cold turkey??? hell no!!!

Since most of my visits are "when in the area", no, not at all.

No way will it. I go when I want to and gas prices don't have anything to do with it.

Gas prices will have to rise pretty damned high before I stop going to SCs. 'Course I don't get to go that often anyhow.
