Let me first qualify this review by saying that I visited Pure Gold early-ish on an off night (Wednesday from 8-9 a week before xmas).  According to "Candy" the club tends to be more heavily frequented by business travelers which might explain why this place was so dead at 9pm.

The Basics:
-This is a "private club" so if you are visiting for the first time you will have to purchase a "membership" (includes your first time admission fee) for $15.  After that it's $6-8 dollars admission and $10-12 for your guest, depending on the day of the week.
-Drinks are average strip club prices, $7.50 for a Jack and Coke.
-$20 per song for a table dance out in the open, $40 for a "private" (read regular couch dance area).  Contact is one way; you cannot touch the dancer.

Pure Gold is located toward the back of a small strip mall.  I think it would be fair to describe it as a medium sized club.  You enter from the back right corner.  The bar lines the back wall.  A decent size stage (only one pole and it seems like one dancer at a time would be the norm) sits in a pit with chairs lining the edges.  Up a couple of steps is the main seating area, with high and low tables and a booth toward the back.  The couch dance area runs along the right side and has your standard couches with high dividers and just enough room for two to be seated.  The usual dim club lighting (but who would want to see a trip club brightly lit?) accented with a Christmas tree, an inflatable Santa, and lots of Christmas lights.  As there was only one, maybe two other patrons when I arrived at 8 the ladies were not particularly enthusiastic.  Most sat by themselves or with another dancer.  The DJ wasn't even bothering to call anyone up to the stage.  Finally Candy approached me and struck up a little conversation; thank goodness as I was about ready to chalk the $15 membership and $7.50 drink up as a total loss.  After a bit of small talk she was called up to the stage (the first one up at about 8:45).  Upon her return I let her have an easy sell for a "private dance".  Definitely enjoyable but I'm more accustomed to getting the same for half the price while being allowed a bit of contact.

Only come here on the weekends.  We had a guys golf outing and we came by on Thursday night and it was quite bad.  On Saturday it was a completely different story.  If you are here on a guy's golf trip....stop by and be prepared to enjoy yourself.  My friend did say the shot girl was the best part of the trip!
