We offer the best Get What You Get (GWYG) tattoos in the San Diego area! Our collection features a wide range of unique, ready-to-tattoo designs. Whether you’re seeking a thrilling, spontaneous tattoo experience or a specific design from our GWYG selection (or you want to pick from our full set of flash tattoos or work on something custom), we ensure every tattoo is crafted to perfection and applied with precision. Embrace the excitement of the unknown with our GWYG tattoos and enjoy special rates for an adventurous tattoo experience. 

What is a Get What You Get (GWYG) Tattoo?

A “Get What You Get tattoo” is exactly as it sounds. You get a tattoo that you randomly select through a game, like Plinko, roulette, or dice, or some kind of vending machine. At our shop, we have a gumball machine filled with our available designs (which can be done in color or black and gray). We prefer this approach because it lets us give a broader range of designs and a more randomized result. 

Read on for more information about our GWYG tattoo pricing and rules and see available designs.

Get What You Get (GWYG) Tattoos

How It Works: We give you a token, you put it in the machine, and out pops your GWYG tattoo design.

Pricing: Our GWYG tattoos are priced at $150 for black and gray designs and $200 for color. You can “re-spin” once for free if you don’t like the design you got. If you still want more options, you can spin three more times for $20.

Special! Mention our online deal for $30 off GWYG tattoos. Plus, enjoy an extra $30 discount Mon. through Thu.

Sizes: GWYG tattoos typically measure 3 to 4 inches in diameter, which are larger than those offered by many shops. They can be applied as small as 1 inch and can also be increased slightly in size, per your preference.

Placement: Typically, GWYG tattoos go on the torso, arms, or legs. Rates may vary for harder-to-tattoo placements.

Pick a GWYG Design: For an additional $50, you can choose a design from our GWYG tattoo options. This reflects the standard rate for flash designs at this size.

Many More Flash Tattoo Options Available

Golden Child boasts the highest-quality selection of flash tattoos available in San Diego & Escondido. Our collection includes a variety of styles, sizes, and complexities to suit any preference. In addition to GWYG tattoos (which you can make a direct pick from for an added $50), you can browse and select from 100s of other diverse designs. For those with specific tastes, our flash tattoos offer a versatile range of options to find the perfect fit.

We invite you to visit our shop to see the full range. We also encourage you to view individual artist page portfolios on our website to get a sense of their styles. You can also reach out to them directly to inquire about additional pre-made designs they may offer.

Had a custom piece designed in honor of my father who passed away. My brother got a matching one. Kristine did a phenomenal job. Both of us couldn’t be happier with the outcome. When I get more tattoos, I will definitely be booking with Kristine at Golden Child!

I had an awesome time here with Katelyn. She was so professional, her line work was so clean her colors were so good the color blending was good. It was a longer tattoo and she kept the same level of detail the whole way through. The face is usually a funky part in most tattoos but she made it look so gorgeous I'm so happy with it and I'm definitely going to come back again. And a special shout out to their apprentice zian who recommended me to her when I walked in and didn't know who to pick. He made a great choice 10/10 the whole way through
