basically ppl there give u a discount if u come listen to their time share presentation for 1 hour. Couples only. I had friends who had it work out well...on the other hand it may be crappy shows.

I myself wouldnt want to waste 1 hour of my vacation time listening to presentations just to get a discount... just me though.

And I prefer going to Vegas in May as it's nice.. Not as hot as in june/july... We were actually able to walk around the strip without problems with heat as breeze blows by here and there.

caught the allegiant deal

thursday night flight to sunday night flight...$1050 2 for 1, so $525 a piece at Ceasar's

That's cheap! especially for a weekend.

I know someone going to vegas this weekend and paid 600$ but staying at the Wynn.

Is that flying from Bellingham? I think most vegas deals nowadays are cheaper as most of these big hotels usually cost a lot more.

Does anybody know of any attractions outside the strip worth going to?

Freemont Street Experience is a 15 minute bus ride away from the strip. Has lots of casinos with the cheap deals like $1 shrimp cocktail and $10 steak and lobster. Also should check out a shooting range down there where you can rent fully automatic SMGs and assault rifles.

Yup. The Gun Store is a blast (no pun intended). It isn't cheap, but the instructors are really good and you have a really good variety of guns to shoot off. It was my first time so I went for the 9mm, but next time I'm going to step it up for an automatic.

anyone know a good way to get night club passes??

the cover at Pure (Ceasar's) is $40 for girl and $60 for guys....WTF????

yeah and that is if you get in

[blkgsr]

ya i can imagine


apparently they sell these club passes for $120...you get cover at a number of clubs and directly "VIP" entrance..no line etc

[frost91]

okay i read a little bit of the thread and heres a tip

if you are a girl, if you dress up, you are going to get in for free, no line no cover..... i have never seen a girl pay ever in vegas

for guys, if you want to have fun, get a table, split it between your friends, it ends up being 200-300 per night if you don't go overboard. i think most people can agree with me, in vegas, no table = no fun.

if you just want to check the club out, just get the free pass from the concierge(sp?) desk at the hotel. it's free, just ask

if you plan to go to a certain club i.e. pure, stay at the Caesars... but if you don't
get a table, you'll just end up walking around and leaving cause it sucks without a table


for stripclubs, i have never paid for the cab ride there nor the cover to get into a strip club

you can make a deal with the cabs to have them drive you there for free and pay your cover because they get 50 bucks every person they bring into the stripclub
you can also phone ahead and have the stripclub send you a limo and give you a ride there and free cover, however you have to tip the limo driver though

ie spearmint rhino = 7027963600 (must be picked up from a casino hotel)
happy hour is 12 to 8, 3 dollar highballs and special shots
imho best time to go is 4-6 and stay till 8, the ratio between the strippers is going to be 3:1
new ladies start working at 3 and 6 and 9, usually they still till 3-5am
6am is when the uglier ladies start working (thats when everyone starts going home :P)
you're going to lose all your money when you come out

when you leave certain strip clubs i.e. rics (which sucks imho) you can have a limo driver drive you back to your hotel, just pay tips

if you decide to get a taxi watch the pay meter, twice i've had taxi drivers try to shut off the meter and tell me an ridiculous price because they would be thinking i wasn't paying attention

HTH

[blkgsr]

ha nice tips

i don't know wht club we are going to but i think we are going to the OG for the strip club part

[frost91]

OG is good if you like the girls really NASTY. Not nasty as in nasty looking but if you go into the vip room you will know what i mean

downstairs is a male strip club and upstairs is a female strip club

you can get free ride and cover to OG from the taxi's but what they don't tell you is they make you buy a 25 dollar drink voucher at the door to get in. as well as the private dances in the vip, they make you buy drinks in there, each drink is 20 dollars (only in the vip room)

i would have to say og is my second favorite strip club, spearmint rhinos is the best

daaamn cover is that much. Been clubbing quite a few times in Vegas but it was always free for me. Didn't have an idea it was that much. Oh Pure sucks by the way so unless you get a free pass or your just dieing to go forget about it. Personally I think Tao blows it out of the water especially if Tao Beach is open on the night you go.

I believe there is one exception to this... forgot which place it was.

Research it here: http://www.vegas.com/nightlife/stripclubs/

[hal0g0dv2]

# Non-residents: $30
# Locals (driving themselves): Free
# Guests arriving by limo or taxi: $30

so it is free if you are a local ?
and a limo is 30 bucks
