Also I'm seeing a lot of references to dances and VIP as two distinct different things? In this club there is the public area where you can watch dancers on the pole, and private rooms for dances.
rickdugan that's not my entire discretionary budget lol, it's what I was thinking of budgeting purely for the SC. I've been really obsessive with saving money since I was younger and now I feel I wanna reduce what I'm saving a bit to have some fun.
My budget is about £100 a week (about $140 USD for comparison) but undecided how to divide that out, like if I'm gonna go and spend that each week or just go every 2 weeks and spend £200 for example. I assume the house probably takes a cut but I've never asked. When you buy a dance you pay a staff member for tokens, the closest thing I can find to describe it is that it's like fake paper money from the Monopoly board game. You pay the dancers with this, and they can redeem that for real cash from the club at the end of the night. I suppose any discount would effectively sting the dancer twice, as the house will probably want their full cut regardless, and so probably a bad idea to try bargaining then. Glad I asked here first. I don't want her in a bad mood or putting less effort into my dances.
ElDuderino_AZ yes, I've worked in businesses where haggling is common and a repeat customer would sometimes get a discount thrown in. Didn't know if that's how it works with SC or not.
alldaylong, a dance in this context meaning the equivalent of several dances. At this SC a dance is quite short in time, some prefer to pay for several and get them as part of one longer uninterrupted dance.
Not sure what is meant by the buying dances being stupid. Isn't that the point of a SC? If you're not buying dances you're just sitting at the bar drinking or watching the pole performances (which aren't happening all the time and can sometimes be a while between dancers)
Yeah that was my logic, that a dancer might be willing to give a slight discount in return for having that regular income guaranteed. Though what you say makes sense, hadn't really thought about it that way. I'm still trying to figure out the etiquette and unspoken rules. I'll probably be going weekly, although not spending as much as I did last week where I was just buying dance after dance with this girl. Any advice or tips? I know it's all a game/entertainment at the end of the day (and that no, I'm not actually the sexiest guy they've ever seen) but it's fun to go and take part in a fantasy for a few hours
