How much cash do you carry?

Order the bills in your wallet? Have a separate place for the big bills?

I keep a fistful of singles for tipping (bartenders and stage performers) in my pocket, and $20s and $100s for dances and VIPs in my wallet.

I bring what I intend to spend, whether it's $200 or $1,000.

On the bar I keep a nice stack of 20 or more singles with a few 5's on the bottom of the pile, in case I want to throw a little extra I can slide it out. But here's a weird thing, I'm a little bit OCD with the cash because I have to put all the heads going the same way. I hate it when they're mixed up. Sometimes I'm concerned they might think I'm a stingy old miser counting his singles, but I just can't stand those dead presidents facing different directions. It drives me nuts.

I think you have an organization problem, not a amount problem. I usually keep singles & 5's in my front pocket, then in my wallet I have 20's in the main section of the wallet where they are easy to pull out, and 50's and/or 100's kinda tucked in there that require a bit of effort to get.

I used to like 50's at the club, but the ATM's near here all moved up to 100's so I don't carry them as much as I used to.

I bring what I intend to spend. I'll do half in hundreds the other in 20s and like 100 or 200 in ones

Left pocket $5's & $10's. right pocket $1's. Wallet $20's. I never carry anything larger than a 20. I always bring more cash than I need. I have never used an ATM.

"I just can't stand those dead presidents facing different directions. It drives me nuts."

Me, too. And others. I remember one time when I was paying my tab, and I had a bunch of bills of assorted denominations in my pocket, so I used them. But before I handed them over to the bartender, I sorted them so they were all same side up and facing the same way. She was watching me do it, and I thought she was getting pissed because I was taking too long. But when I handed them over, she smiled and said "thanks for doing that."

I use the Wallanon method. Depending on the day, I will have more than enough for 3 VIP sessions.

I group 20s, 50s, and 100s. I normally don’t carry any cash but if I have some extra 1s or 5s or whatever, they get folded in half and separated from the bigger bills. I have still handed over a 100 when it should have been a 20 node or twice. Fuck it, it’s only money.

First of all, I sort it all out before I leave home, or at least at my first stop after I stop at the ATM on the way to the club (which isn't necessarily the club). It all goes in denomination order from highest to lowest and it's always face up. When I get to the club, the $1 bills go in my right pocket and my wallet goes in my left. It isn't that complicated and it works for whenever I go to a casino the same way, except I can keep my ones in the wallet there.

I'm not a big stage tipper. So I normally only have a few small bills. My purpose is getting into VIP. So before I go to a club, I will do my research on TUSCL to see how much certain activities cost. Then I'll determine how many Benjamin's to take.

Singles in one stack on the bar or table. Maybe $125 to $200 in left pocket for drinks and to reload in singles for stage tips. Right pocket and back pocket has whatever I plan to spend for VIP. If im carrying 20’s or 50’s, I flip them the same way for every $100, then turn the next stack of bills of $100 the other way so I can count them quickly. Maybe a reserve of a few hundred dollars in a back pocket. I don’t carry a wallet because I’m not geriatric.

I also have a habit of sorting my bills by denomination then making sure they all face the same direction, I actually carry this one step farther, if there is a folded corner or edge I open and smooth the bills as well. One of the tricks I use to keep from using the wrong bill, is I keep the singles in one folded stack in my right pocket, 5's and 10's in another stack same pocket, twenties in my left pocket, and larger bills 50's and 100's folded and tucked in a wallet compartment. I usually have about $600-$1000. dollars on me and I never use a debit card, and have never run out of cash.

I usually bring ten or so dollar bills to get me started and keep in my right front pocket. Replenish with change from cover and/or drinks and break a $20 when needed.

$5, $10, $20s sorted in my wallet. $100s in separate section of wallet or sometimes will fold in half and place behind the $20s.

Rarely have $50s. I live in PA and use Bank of America which dispenses $100s. When in NJ their ATMs dispense $50s instead.

I too insist on presidents facing forward so I can verify denomination more quickly. I don't care if they are upside down though.

Got off my routine at least twice that I know of. Once tipped a $20 when it was intended to be $1. Once tipped a hostess $100 when it was intended to be a $20. Hostess asked me twice if I wanted change, knew my routine was $20, so situation was rectified and she earned an extra tip.

I deliberately randomize my wallet because my wife treats it as an ATM, and I'm hoping it's harder to notice fluctuations that way.

I use a biker-style leather wallet that I made myself. It's a bit larger and has more partitions / compartments than a standard wallet. So, I separate the bills by denomination into different partitions. The larger denominations go into a closed compartment. It makes it easy to keep my cash sorted. Though it's larger, it's not cumbersome.

That said, I eventually made a standard-sized wallet for kicks. So, the biker wallet has become a club wallet.

You obviously don't need to make your own. There are good ones on Amazon and Etsy.

After reading these, I have a new insight on what makes an ideal TUSCLer. We all have OCD!🤣

I put my singles in one pocket and everything else in a wallet in the other pocket.

I have fucked up however a few times. just lately when I checked out of the hotel I put my deposit refund in my pocket with the singles because I was leaving Tijuana and later on when I stopped for coffee I went to tip the cute server a $1 bill forgetting that I still had the 20 and a five in my singles pocket. after tipping her and pulling my hand away, I realized that I tipped her the 20. oh well...
at least it wasn't as bad as I did overtip a girl one time in lil darlings vegas three one hundred dollar bills thinking that I had tipped her three dollars. I wasn't watching what bills. I was tucking under her g-string but I found out later when I got to sapphire and realized I didn't have my $100 bills! (that was back when I first started clubbing 11 years ago.) on a later visit to that club, the girl
saw me and ran up and thanked me with kisses...

Other than when I am clubbing or going to my weekly card game I generally don't have more than about $20 in cash on me. The amount I carry with me for clubbing varies based on what club I am going to. If it is a club that has extras I will carry about $1000-1250 with me just to make sure I have enough but I have never spent that full amount. If it is a non extras club I usually carry around $500-700 and have only rarely spent that much.

When clubbing I put singles in my left front pocket, fives in my right front pocket and twenties and hundreds in my wallet which has a divider that keeps them separate. I rarely carry any tens or fifties but if I do get them as change the tens would go in with the fives and fifties would go with the hundreds.

Ha, add me to the list of those with OCD. I line up the presidents facing forwards (facing me) in my wallet, in order of denomination, large bills first. Most of the time not always. I usually carry between 300 and 1000 when going to a club. Mostly 20s and 100s, but I try to hang on to a few 5s and 10s as well.

I do the "two separate places" method. I don't do lapdances so that makes it easier -- I only do VIPs, so only use $50s and $100s for those, they're in a separate pocket. I usually don't stage tip, so all the lower denominations from singles through 20s are for drinks and food, I stuff that into a front pocket

I keep a folded stack of 20s in one pocket and all the smaller bills in another. I can pull what I need to pay for drinks or dances without ever having to remove the stack out of my pocket. The only money I flash is the lower denomination stack, which I use for stage tipping and sometimes to buy drinks when it grows too large from drink change. Easy peasy.

These suggestions all sound fine. I don't like having bills all over the place, so there's one pocket for dollars. That's random trip money. Anything bigger than $1 I don't feel like putting into my wallet goes into a back pocket until I feel like dealing with it. The bills in my wallet I order $100s to $1s. Singles in front. I usually keep some ones there in case I need to hook a dancer before my change arrives. The only bills I track in my head are the $100s, so I know how many to pull without opening the wallet wide. Nosy dancers see $1s and maybe a $20.

If I run out of little bills I break a hundred. If I want to let a dancer know I'm there to spend I'll pay for a round drinks with a hundred. If I want management to understand how to cater to my visit at a new club I'll pay the cover with a hundred. You get the point. And if I'm not sure how long I'll be in a club I'll keep other hundreds in reserve away from the rest. When I get into my backup cash (which doesn't happen often but for a reason when it does) then I'll start tracking the spend to make sure I close the deal on what I'm looking for. I'm usually only into backup cash for a VIP I didn't plan on or I want to throw more money at a new dancer in case I'd like to put her in the lineup.

When a dancer thinks you've shortchanged her because the stack is light, then realizes you paid in hundreds, that's an error in your favor.

The big bill pocket / small bill pocket system seems to work well for me. But I just hate coming home with too many singles. It gets me too many side-eye glances from my wife when I load up the collection plate on Sunday with a pile of singles.

I keep my cash in a wad with a money clip. First a 1, then the 100s, 50s, 20s, 10s, 5s, and 1s. When I get it out all you can see are 1s. Easy to find the bill I want.

Ones, fives, and tens in my back pocket for my drinks and tips. Twenties and hundreds in my wallet for VIPs.

It’s been years since I’ve taken a wallet into the club – the less stuff I have on me, the less I can lose or have stolen (I’ve had both happen over-the-years).

I mostly hit $5/dance small-black-clubs in Miami; and at times the $25/dance mixed-clubs – so having smaller denominations helps – my M.O. is similar to others in that I’ll put smaller denominations ($1s/$5s) in my right-pocket and $20s in my left and that’s pretty-much-it – since I mostly hit low-cost-clubs, and I’m not a big VIP/extras guy; I’ve never taken $50s or $100s into the club.

I bank w/ Wells-Fargo and their ATMs as far as I can recall only dispense $20s and $50s – but many Wells Fargo branches near-me will have a separate ATM inside that will dispense $1s and $5s (in addition to $20s and $50s) and I often will use that inside-ATM for my small SCing-denominations (assuming I can hit a branch b/f closing time) – I once used a Chase Bank ATM near my house and noticed it had options for denominations smaller than $20s.

Papi chulo "black" clubs on the west coast sometimes have more Latinas than blacks. Is it Luke that in Miami?

I'm seriously considering moving there. Not because of clubs. But your info on the city is the best I've seen online

“… Papi chulo "black" clubs on the west coast sometimes have more Latinas than blacks. Is it Luke that in Miami? …”

I haven’t clubbed since late-2021 but traditionally the SoFlo/Miami clubs have been pretty-segregated – i.e. IME it’s rare to vey-rare to find a non-black-dancer in a black Miami/SoFlo club – and w.r.t. the “mixed” Miami clubs, IME most of them either have very-few or none (black-dancers) – i.e. the SoFlo mixed-clubs; especially the top/popular ones; IME are not the clubs if someone is looking for ebony-dancers.

I recommend keeping cash sorted by denomination and separating the larger denominations from the singles.

I bring what I expect to spend. I separate my singles from my $5’s, $10’s and $20’s. I never bring anything above a $20, as it’s not helpful to bring those bigger bills.

In my day-to-day life, I almost *never* use cash, but my strip-club wallet is stuffed with it. I won’t use ATMs or credit cards in a club, and I always bring more cash than I plan to spend, because, well, sometimes the situation warrants it. I never drink alcohol and have learned not to think with the little head, so it’s easy for me to keep things in perspective.

I keep my cash separated by denomination. A wad of singles goes in my shirt pocket for tipping, and everything else is in my wallet. Like other OCD PLs, I line the bills up so they’re all oriented in the same direction, then I put them in my wallet so the *back* of the bills are facing me, and the *bottom* of the bills are most readily visible.

Why do I do this? When reaching for cash in a very dark club, whether on the main floor, in the lap dance area, or in a VIP, it’s easy to make mistakes, so now there’s a method to my OCD. With the exception of singles, there is a *very large number* in the lower right corner on the *back* of every U.S. bill – 5, 10, 20, etc. It’s easier to see this in the dark, and since that corner is now readily visible to me, I only have to pull out the corner of the bill to see what I’m pulling from the stack.

The realization that I’m having from this thread is that SCs are basically the only place that I frequent where cash is still the best and largely the only method for payment. Hopefully it stays that way.

Front right pocket: $1x20 and $5x20. The singles are on top, fives underneath, the whole bundle folded in half in my pocket. I can easily reach in and pull out a single or two, or a five, as needed, without looking. Back right pocket: $10x20, $20x10, $100x(depends). When I do lap dances at the club I most often frequent, they are $100/three so I usually can pull out a $100 and a $20 for a set of three dances.

Back left pocket, ID and car key. I never bring a credit or debit card inside the club.

I wear cargo pants. 10k in each pocket. But only pay for bargain pussu from 6ft Swedish models

I haven't brought a wallet in a club for years, nor do I want to have to pull one out every time I pay for drinks/dances. That's why I keep the 20 stack isolated. I can count it out literally by touch and then only pull out what I need. I've also been doing this so long that I can reasonably guesstimate what I have left by how thick the wad is.
