Fees the chicas receive from two of the clubs in May 2014
This is what a dancer told me who has worked at both Hook and Crocodilo so you can make your own assessment on the reliability of the data.
At Hook, for each dance they perform which is 20 minutes long they receive 50 pesos. If they do a solo dance (striptease) it is 100 pesos.
Of the current chica drink prices of 250 pesos, the chica receives 50 pesos if she does not go out with you, She receives zero pesos if she goes out of the club with you.
At Crocodilo, drinks with the dancers are 500 pesos and the chica receives 100 pesos. She said that usually she also picked up 200 to 300 pesos in tips a night as a dancer. At Crocodilo some of the dancers did not go out with men.
Chica Prices seem to be holding
[QUOTE=Riina;440877]Hi guys,
Sorry for my ignorance, but does this currency devaluation truly translate into greater bang for the buck? Just seems to me chica's would adjust peso pricing to the dollar.[/QUOTE]I am returning to Buenos Aires in November so I am monitoring prices on AP and on the local Boards. Prices seem firm since last November 2013. Of course it is winter. Hook still seems to be 1000 P to the girl for one hour plus taxi and 500 to the house for one drink each. Massage places I know range from 250 P (veggie massage) to 700 P (Estefi [URL]http://www.areamasajes.com.ar/estefy1/index.html[/URL]) for full service. It is a good deal if you have dollars and can convert them since last November was 9. 6 P to $1 and two days ago Jackson reported 13.05 P to $1.
However last November 2013 Hook raised their drink prices while I was in town. I think there will be some price pressure when the tourists return.
