So one night I was at the strip club with a few mates, we were interested in getting some lap dances. It was a busy evening after the footy and there were a lot of overweight slovenly looking guys there. Not being too full of myself, but I'm a fairly well put together guy and relatively easy on the eye, so I mention this to a dancer and tell her that giving me a dance at a reduced rate, $20 rather than $50, works out well for both of us. She won't have to grind up against a disgusting pissed up lardball, and I'm a kind and respectful guy. She agreed and proceeded to take me to a booth for a dance, and we both benefited from the negotiated transaction.
Later that night, and several more drinks deep I approached another dancer for another lap dance. Having been successful earlier I attempted to negotiate again. This time my approach was different, and this girl being a little bit more, chunky, I told her that she didn't really deserve the same rate as the more attractive strippers, and that maybe she should lower her prices or I'd got to one of her competitors. This attempted negotiation was less successful, and the dancer quite firmly told me to move on.
One of the key tenets of negotiating is to know your position of bargaining power, and to know when the negotiation is appropriate. SM I know you've got a wedding and bucks coming up, so take these factors into consideration.
