Yesterday I saw a shop for a gentleman's club shop. I have never ever seen one of these before. They actually reimburse for lap dances and drinks.

I just wanted to share as I thought it was quite funny.

Curious, what was the fee and reimbursement? As a woman, I think I am not the demographic thet are looking for.

How does one get a receipt for lap dances?

foodluvr - you'd be surprised by how many women frequent those places.

No doubt, but not sure I have seen many women looking for a lap dance and if it was an integrity audit to ensure no illegal activity was occuring, not sure that would fly

In my area, the fee is $0 and reimbursement $150.
Must start at 11 PM. Must end at 1 AM.

OMG no fee? I rarely do these, but if I wanted to do a lot of them, they pay REALLY WELL.

Huh?

If the intent was to see if the dancers allowed touching or made advances, I would think the client wants a male shopper. Although lots of women in these places, how many ask for lap dances? Would have to take a male with you as a female shopper.

I have seen some for Las Vegas. Requirement though is for you to try and buy drugs and solicit "a good time" - Pay is good!

Yes, this is what I was referring to above. Pay was excellent, but if they to offer the extras, what's your excuse to bail.

My question as well! Like...if she says yes i have crack lets go to your car...um...now what?

I have done these shops regularly since 2011. I still do one particular location at least once per month, so I will address the questions in each of the above posts.

1. These shops are not funny, but they are basically integrity shops.

2. The pay is very good. The client reimburses fully for the required purchases, which can range from under $100 to a few hundred dollars depending on the type of shop.

3. You do not get a receipt for lap dances. You just enter the amount in the report and get reimbursed. Remember this is an integrity shop, and there are cameras everywhere but the restrooms.

4. I take my wife with me on the shop every month. It keeps me from having as many of the ladies hang on me and try to solicit lap dances. She likes to watch the pole dancers, and she also likes to help me eat the appetizer. Almost every month, I see at least one female being given a lap dance by one of the female dancers. Sometimes a woman will treat her man and buy him a lap dance; sometimes it's the other way around. They watch. The woman-on-woman lap dance customers seem to have the most fun.

5. There is also a client with male dancers, but this one requires a visit to the private room. I stopped doing private room lap dances when I met my wife, but I still take her with me to do the observation shops.

6. If they offer illegal extras while you are in the private room with them, it will be for a later time outside the club. Those illegal extras will not be performed inside the club, because there is a Security person in the private room with you and the dancer. He stands and watches to make sure nothing happens.

7. You can say you don't have a car, because you arrived in a limo. If she wants to go to outside to smoke crack in your car, you say you have to stop in the restroom first. You should have at least her stage name and a description by now. You use your cell phone to alert whomever it you are supposed to alert. You report the incident as your client instructions tell you. If you are an experienced mystery shopper, and I doubt an inexperienced shopper would be assigned one of these shops, you think on your feet and come up with an excuse.

8. The pay is very good and the reports are not difficult, and the hours are not usually later than a typical nightclub shop.

The dancers will approach a female the same as they would approach a male. You would not need to take a male with you unless you would be uncomfortable without one. The dancers initiate their approach with a friendly greeting and begin conversation. Rapport is built and they will eventually ask if you would like a lap dance. They often sit and talk with you after the lap dance is finished. I suggest that you try an observation shop first and then progress to a participation shop if you feel comfortable.

I did a liquor audit at a strip club.

Where would one find these assignments? Asking for a friend.

Thanks, I have done observations before but I would be ok w the participation piece. Thanks for sharing your experience, makes me feel better about applying for this.

I was just about to post concerning this very topic. i wouldn't do the shop, because I don't like laying out a 100-200 dollars to be reimbursed later. Too much of a risk in my opinion. Kudos to those who do and enjoy them. I'm too old for these shops now.

This is what I found in my email.

I was literally JUST telling hubby about one of these. The one I was reading requires you go by yourself though. It seems interesting enough

Mine was found on a popular gig app.

The first thing that came to mind was Roger Moore as The Saint musing about the kindly dignity provided by clubs for fading old chaps. The second thing was that decades ago, when I was "qualified" for something like this, I was offered the well-tipped position of cigarette girl. I just needed girls or a push-up bra. Now, they want lap dances! My, how times have changed...
