How do strippers get money in England?

[Hanwei0725]

Serious question!

So i recently came back from vacation from England and had a blast but one thing came up odd while i was walking around London. I noticed they had Strip joints which was totally fine, but how do you give the strippers money? In England they use Pounds instead of Dollars, and they do not have paper bills for the amount of 1 and 2, instead they use Coins. The smallest amount that comes in paper bills are 5s. Now i know that Strippers work hard for thier money and im sure some people give 5s, but i imagine most people sgell out 1s and 2s. Here in the States, i think a majority of people who attend Strip Joints shell out 1 dollar bills and not 5s or 10s.

My main questions are these......do people in England give 1 or 2 pound coins to the strippers? and if they do...do the strippers have like a coin purse to hold it? If you cannot give 1 or 2 pound coins, then that means the lowest amount to shell out to a stripper would be the 5 pound bill. which i think is a lot. someone from the States, that 5 Great Britain Pound would be about 10 United States Dollar, depending on conversion rate, but roughly.

anyone know understand what i am asking?

Thanks

hahaha... i understand what you're asking, and it's a rather curious question, but i have no idea!

That's actually a good question, and so I won't even make the joke about "coin purse" that just begging to be told.

[ohukuo]

I would like to know the answer to these questions as well. No way they will use a coin purse(but maybe, just maybe they do).

While we're on the subject, I'd like to get some feedback about clubs here in the States.

What's the standard tip you guys give for girls on stage (either side or main)?

How much do you pay for table dances? Tip?

How much for private rooms? Tip?

How much for champagne rooms? Tip?

Yes, I love the strip clubs but am never sure what to pay. Don't want to waste money, don't want to offend the girls either.

I've never been to a strip club. :shrug:

[Squirrel-Master]

okay not tbat I am an expert on strip clubs or anything, dont really care to waste money like that, but I happened to be in canada a few years back drinking with a few buddies and we ran into the same thing, the loonies and toonies are the canadian one and two dollar coins and they spent just fine. in fact i was impressed on the girls money making skills. for the graphic version, the girls who were oiled up would stick a coin to a random part of thier body and the guys would then take other coins and throw them and try to knock the one off. the dancer would make like $50 in about 3 min it was bizzare...........

Wow. Let's just say things are a wee bit different here.

Stage: few bucks
Lap: $5
Private: $30
Champagne: $100

I was blown away by the "physical" nature of the private room last time, so was wondering what the champagne room would be like. :hihi:

Ahh, gotcha.


Oh really?

Yeah, it was a lot more contact than I was used to. It was a new club, I dunno...maybe the rules are relaxed there a bit. I'm used to the no hands/no touching rule, and that def was not in effect. :shrug:

You missed that I highlighted a word in your quote. Perhaps I was being too subtle with my play on your use of the word "blown."

i wouldn't be surprised if strippers in england wwere simply paid by the house.

[guiseppewv]

Now I am really disappointed that I did not go to a strip club or 2 while I was in the UK last fall. :P

I know that "by the house" refers to the place where they work, but what if strippers went door to door like vaccuum cleaner salesmen or Jehovah's Witnesses? That would be cool.

Just picture it: sitting down to an early dinner on Saturday afternoon with the family, then *knock, knock* at the door. "Oh baby, it must be a stripper!"
