    I know you said they told you it wouldnt work but have you tried a US zip code rather than a postcode.

    what CC are you trying, maybe thats the issue

    just tried for a $20 Uber egift card... refused again.
    i added a new card (Halifax Clarity Mastercard), entering Nevada 89109 as details.
    also tried with a Barclaycard Visa and refused too.

    It's strange that others are not having issues, I haven't had to add a card for a while so won't know if I have issues or not.

    I use a Post office cc as there are no fx fees, just like the clarity.

    Don't know what else to suggest

    Early March is prob your best bet, can be a bit windy though so feeling cooler than 22.

    If you go mid too late march you will be in march madness with hotel prices higher

    I'd go with end of November to mid March. They had 90F this last weekend. Check the averages to see when you would be most comfortable.

    Madamme Tusards anyone ??
    Read it on another site, that Expedia are doing a 'Romance package' which gets u access to the museum, the linq eye and lunch/dinner inside the Linq....
    I set my date for May (non-refundable, book the date u want to go)...
    Paid £11.51 each for 3 tickets!
    Even if missing the food option, I think £12 for a ticket to the wax museum ain't a bad deal....


    http://www.justvegasdeals.com/madame-tussauds-high-roller-package-price-error/


    but go via expedia.co.uk as normal if u want to book....
    Defo a pricing error, but as stated on the above site, expedia honour there mess ups, and I know first hand, they honour there deals from stuff in the past I have had with them....
    worth a shot maybe ?

    It has disappeared now. They must have found the error.
