So I am hearing now that some AMPS (eg Pink, Asia Spa and soon Ichiban) are offering discounted incentives for mongers on a tight budget. Apparently, it is like an express session. Pink and, I believe, Asia Spa are offering the half hour special where you pay a $25.00 entry fee and you have a half hour session with your provider of choice. The usual expected tip is around $80.00. I love that concept as it puts it to the girls not to waste time and get to the heart of the matter. Someone mentioned on another forum that Ichiban will begin to offer no entry fee for regulars, but that could be deceiving as you know the owners will somehow get their share back by tapping into the tips of the girls.

Thanks for the 411 subway! All they need now is a $35/$115 45 minute session and they'll have every option covered (well maybe not the 15 min)!! On a different note I heard that half of the girls from Ichiban are AWOL. Anyone know where they went?

A discounted rate sounds like a good idea for mongers on a budget. But with way too much time on my hands I got to thinking, if this catches on the ladies will be busy and the chance of seeing a certain provider will get slimmer. Also the cheaper rates can and will attract a certain type of person (if you know what I mean) in turn the providers' attitude regarding service can shift towards a more jaded attitude. Not saying this will happen, but it might. Ok I have way too much time on my hands... I need to hit up an amp quick!

Actually spyda you bring up some good points to be concerned about. Further, the good girls may get burnt out faster and they end up either leaving, or quitting the business sooner.

Good points about the 1/2 hour specials. All we can do is ride it out (hehe) and see what happens.

Makes it hard now to just go for a massage and HJ since it's about the same price.
