Superdude started a topic about today about the ways the clubs try to fuck the customers. Does any one know of any clubs that reward their repeat customers? The air lines have their frequent flyer programs, the credit card companies have their programs and just about every other retail store has some sort of rewards program for those that spend a lot.
Wouldn't it be great if you got a card and it got punched every time you got a BJ. Buy 10 and get the next one free sort of thing. I'm not going tp hold my breath though. :)
There is such a thing, but unadvertised. As one becomes a regular, we are treated differently. I know, for myself, bouncers don't check the LD area much when it's not crowded. A better "pour". That sort of thing.
A club I went to in the Twin Cities, if I spent a lot of money on the dancers, a bouncer or a server or someone would stop by and give me a card for free admission the next time I came in.
Platinum Plus used to give their dancers free admission cards to give out to their favorite customers but they stopped doing that. The club still gives them out but just to appease pissed off customers.
The benefits of being a regular who at least spends *some* money on the girls are good enough for me for now.
Only a couple of the clubs I go to regularly have cover charges, and those are low. If I come in close enough to the time when cover charges start, they'll generally waive them.
I only drink water or coke when I'm in a club, so they'll often give me those for free.
The bartender at one club pretty regularly asks me who I'm interested in after I've been there for a while, and on more than one occasion has offered to go snag that one. I remember one time I asked after my ATF (before we started seeing each other regularly) and she said she was out smoking with a customer. I told her, "when she gets free, I'd like to sit with her." The words were barely out of my mouth, and she was gone, and came back practically dragging the poor girl.
I've even gotten an occasional discount on VIP. They sometimes (not often, and only when it's slow) cut some of the bar's share of the cost.
Yes it does exist. A club I go to has a VIP card available. Many years ago they were given out free to special customers. Now they are sold for I think 150.00 and are good for a lifetime. The card gets you free admission on nights or events where there is a cover charge. It also gets you into Private and Themed parties that the club holds routinely with perks like open bar and buffets. There is also special VIP seating areas available. The card is presented also when you pay your tab and it allows the club to track your purchases and you earn points. There are two nights a week when the amount of your points earned are doubled. The points are accumulated and can be redeemed for free drinks, food , and 1/2 Champagne rooms depending on the balance of your points earned. The points accumulate at the rate of 1 pt for every dollar spent.
busta, Now that you mention it, I have seen being a VIP customer offered. Often coupled with keeping over priced bottles and cigars in "your" locker/humidor.
I was talking with a dancer from my favorite club recently and she said that after we had finished several lap dances she went to the dressing room and the floor manager stopped her to ask if I was doing all right. She assured him I was and went on her way. He referred to me as Mr. -------, and I had no idea he knew who I was. I keep a low profile at the club and drink very little. However I do VIP frequently and usually put the houses' portion ($100 to $200) on a credit card. When they take your card, they take your drivers license as well and I've never had a problem with overcharges. However they must be keeping an eye on who the spenders are. I'm not looking for any preferential treatment and I guess its a good thing that the manager is keeping an eye on how my night's going.
Besides whatever perks you may get from the club, the hottest dancers might perceive you as the guy she wants because you are a good regular customer and she wants to be one of your favorites. The door girl might recognize you as a VIP member and just wave you in. The bartender might go get your usual drink before you even ask. One time the bartender had a drink and change waiting on me before I even approached the bar and paid her the usual.

I have been given free passes by dancers before in about three or four different clubs. BLUE PARROT, SIRENS, DejaVu CONCEPTS. BUT IT IS NOT A REGULAR THING LIKE A courtesy card. It is hit n miss.

Except Friday and Saturday nights would be blacked out. Oh, and of course the popular club destinations (like Follies) would not be allowed.
And after you accumulate a lot of points, the club changes the rules.
