You guys really know how to beat a dead horse...
[QUOTE=Asianflu]Lex's analysis is on point! Slease you know you might even be abel to overcome a price hike if you are a regular;however, it would bbring resentment overtime as you will get a reputation as a cheap charlie!
They are raising prices BECAUSE they Can! Obviously business is good (demand)..they wouldn't raise prices if business was slow..that would not make sense..geeze business is terrrible no one is coming here so let's raise prices.
Finally if you spent your $1920 elswhre the AMP would be better off ...they could get 12 visits by someone willing to pay the extra $20-40. Just pay the increase and smile.
Don't get me wrong I don't like price hikes but I like the AMPs and girls. Give em a break. They earn every buck they make.

Bottom line is, if prices keep going higher, alternatives become more available, which ultimately brings prices back inline, it's the beauty of capitalism.
RE: Prices in the DC area, they have been quite stable for some time now, even if spa owners, collectively, have tried to raise prices!
Lastly, for the sake of these hard working spa girls, I suggest someone bring back the "$10 coupon"!! :D
