I was trolling through a provider's website and am usually curious what you ladies consider "FAQ." Most of it is rote, but this provider, even before stating the obvious of how and where to leave the donation, specifically states in capital letters: "PLEASE DO NOT ASK FOR CHANGE."
This is hysterical. The mere fact that this is on the top of her list must indicate that it happens. But does it really happen that often?
I know, ATM dispenses twenties and the rate is $$$ 1/2. If you are spending that much, what's an extra 10? If a hobbyist is too lazy to get the correct change b/4 the meeting (or if it's nighttime and bank is closed), IMHO asking for change just cheapens (pun intended) the moment.
Ladies, does it really happen that often? And do you tell the cheap bastard that you're not a candy store and to turn around and get out - or do you quietly give him change and fake interest for the alotted time?

It's never happened to me, it would be a rather surreal situation to be in!
Don't humiliate yourself by asking for change.
I can hear Sexy Sally now.
"Okay thirsty, you have $75 left on the card."
(Hmm...I can get Dirty Donna to beat me down for that much...or I can just cover Sexy Sally's tip for the next 15 appointments.)

no such thing as change in this business!!
so you guys are saying that a provider still deserves a tip even if she puts in a lackluster, distant, horrible performance?? I am not cheap and if I'm stupid enough not to bring change and a provider puts in even a so so session I would still never ask for change. However, if I run into some real bitch who does nothing to earn her $$$ and her rate is 350.00 and all I have is hundreds, then hell if I'm gonna give her that extra 50! She already ripped me off for 350, just wouldn't make sense.
He came in the room and said ..Omgg.. I couldnt even stop and get change..for a 20. do you have it.. well I knew him so I didnt mind speaking of money.. and told him just take ten off the top of my last donation. That all I had was hundreds.. Then he felt bad and realized how he sounded..and said "OHHH dont worry about it then..
Moral of the story. My rate in albany is only 250. Why inthe world would I only have 100's. So the dear lad tipped me ten bucks. I could have dinner tonight 
Yay him LOL!
Not laughing at you Ricki, but I pride myself on due diligence. I never see a new lady that I have not vetted completely. My decision making process is always based primarily on extensive BC and/or recommendations from close hobbying associates.
Ergo, I always put the donation in the envelope with a 15% to 20% gratuity included. I know some of you are screaming right now, but let me explain. First off, it depends on the length of the date. Secondly, it may vary as to an Indy or an Agency lady. Last, and paramount, it is based on the recommendation of fellow hobbyists, and more importantly my close friends. If they speak that highly of her, I must assume that she will be all I am expecting. If not, then of course I will never see her again, and my friends will be duly chastised! Payback is a bitch! YMMV not withstanding, the extra 50 bucks will not kill me, and at least I will have the satisfaction of knowing that the lady will probably think of me as "A Class Act." If I err, "The horse is on me!"
I guess some of you will probably vehemently disagree with my point of view, but hey, opinions are like assholes. Everybody has one! Peace!
I know one visiting provider who charges $325. She always tells me about guys who give her $330 and want $5 change. I think thats hilarious. I guess these guys forget that they should also tip if they get a good session. Im not talking about a $5 tip either.
That's all I ever give Sexy Sally.

P.S. Dirty Donna usually gives me $5.

Or maybe she got jealous of Dirty Donna :-0
Shes a domme and dismembers 
We loved you Thirsty.
Sally is one of a long list of providers who goes to bed thinking about me every night. 
[Note to self: Order more "I'd Rather Be With Thirsty" tees.]

I truly enjoyed getting my $1 back from her. That's part of the pleasure, at least for me.
