Tipping - frequency vs size

C) infrequent and large amounts

Dancer only? Or strip club staff? Both? Dougster stock market tips?

For me it would most likely be B). I usually tip a small amount at the stage if I'm sitting or standing near it with almost every dancer, generally $2 or $3 dollars. If it is a favorite of mine on stage then I'll tip her up to $20. For satisfactory performances either on the floor or VIP I often leave a $25 tip. Waitresses and bartenders I generally leave $1 or a beer or soft drink and $2 for a mixed drink although I usually don't drink mixed drinks in clubs. Other club staff (bathroom attendant, bouncer, door girl, DJ) I tip sparingly and only when I feel is necessary.

E) Appropriately, usually for good service have been known to overtip at times.

Whats considered a large amount?

I'm B). I am a consistent regular. And even though I go to see a fave, I will tip every single stripper on the stage at least once as long as she's putting in effort and is friendly. And my faves will usually get a $10-20 tip after 2-4 dances. Plus I tip them $2-3 for every song on stage .

It's most likely B) for me. I usually tip $2 or $3 song at stage, up to a max of $21 for a stage set (it would have to be a great show or a sexy show). For dances, if I *enjoy* it I'll tip $10 on top of dances and $20 if I *really enjoyed* it. $40 would be the asshole tax. If she's been talking to me table side for a while, and I'm not yet ready for dances, I'll tip a $5 (used to $20) every now and again if she's been good company with me. Waitresses and bartenders, I tip $1 to her to break $20s into $5s and $1s for tipping. I tip $2 for a drink ($7 neat liquor) and extra $1 for each additional drink. Other staff I tip sparingly, too. DJ I tip $5 if I want my dancer (rarely) to skip her stage set.

C) I always try to negotiate what is going to happen first. If I do that, then the girl deserves what we agreed upon. So I'm only going to tip for something above and beyond. But when that happens, I want the girl to know I appreciate it. And then hopefully it happens again.

Look at my profile page. I"m screaming it at my wenches ! :-)

w.r.t. who, it can be anyone in the club

w.r.t. how much is a big (or small) tip/amount, it's what you consider big/small

Papi,

My answer changes depending on who I am tipping. My above answer was for a dancer. If the question is directed toward doorman or waiters, then my answer is the exact opposite. For support people, I'm tipping often, but small amounts. I want the waitress to know I tip so she comes back, but I'm not going to break the bank on her.

I always tip for VIP unless it was just bad. If I just do dances I pay in denominations of twenties, so if it comes to $80 she gets $80, but if it comes to maybe $50 she gets $60. Unless she really went above and beyond (or I have hopes of getting her out of there). Sometimes I tip extra well at the stage if it's crowded and I think it will get me the attention of the one I'm interested in.

B. Why waste so much money on peacocking when so many girls are just waiting to dance on your lap for the dollars

Thank you to everyone for tipping.

F) Sometimes (or about half the time unless i only see favorites/regulars then it's almost all the time) and variable amounts depending on the service although i almost always tip the waitress, shotgirl and bartender. I think i tip quite above average when the service is good though. I don't usually tip for "average" dances, though, often giving the woman exact change (and i almost always have exact change) say 30 instead of 40 or 25 instead of 30. If a dance is $10, i might add a single or two, unless it was below average, then i tip nothing.

And i generally consider multiple/stacked dances a tip in itself, particularly the more i get, but some GPS strippers still ask for/suggest tips even when i've done 5+ dances with them. If they were great (and they usually are otherwise i wouldn't have gotten so many), i would have tipped them anyway, but when they ask, i might tip them less than i had planned if at all.

A.

I only go to the stage to watch and tip the girls that I really want to tip. If a girl gives a good dance(on stage) I tip $1-$5 . If a stage dance is VERY good $5-$10. Private dance tips..... A terrible air dance nothing. A good quality private dance $5-$10, an excellent dance $20. VIP $20-$50 for average to above average,unless another price has been negotiated.

I’m mostly C. Wait until I find what I like and then pay what it takes to have the best.

JS69,
I always was a fan of your tipping system. You'd documented it before. I may emulate it some day.

Inconsistently amounts with inconsistent frequency.

I tip what I consider appropriate when I consider it appropriate to do so. Sometimes that’s a buck for every dancer who walks by, sometimes it’s only the $20 I give my favorite for a good grope session. Sometimes it’s both. Sometimes it’s nothing.

B.

I try to avoid dances that don't get my tip.

Im not large to begin with so the tip certainly isn't.

^ I’ve heard the girls at The Inner Room talking about a guy they called pencil dick, says he tries to get them to give him a lap dance for a fruitcup;)

Know, I ask for lap dances AND a fruit cup.

Combination of B and D.
If sitting at rail, $3 or so just for being there and $5 to $10 for sensuality or enthusiasm or both.
For the standard 3/100 VIP chair dances in my region, $20 (20%) if experience very good , nothing if it's bad. (I never get floor dances, mileage too low and dislike being observed by others).
For room, depends on the experience

@ flagooner thanks for clearing that up I was a bit confused;)

I don't do stage tips unless it's a CF. Otherwise I pull new girls from the floor as they're walking around. But my faves I tip well both on stage and off stage.

Very infrequently and small amounts, too much bad or lazy service in most clubs.

frequency. you can get more out of a trick that way unless he's tipping more than $500 at once.
