Whatever you do, DO NOT eat at any of the buffets there!

We always like to have a look around the Outlet Mall. There is a Bath and Bodyworks there that often has 75% discounts on the regular price.

The link takes you to a Travelzoo Exclusive - are you saying this could be a problem as it has accepted the booking without a problem?

no, sorry - my fault, i was getting the code mixed with another (I won't post it as there's no point as people can't use it! ) --- code that luci posted is definitely the right one so i'll edit my post thanks


( in my defence, i have been sobering up for most of the day! )

edit: --- i've just realised it was exactly the same as the one i've been banging on about in this very thread too!!! what an idiot i am! lmao

So i'm guessing that I should book the one bedroomed suite at the Signature then??

Thanks for all your responses, I knew I could rely on you all.

I decided that I deserve some luxury in my life (even if its only for three nights!!) and booked the one bedroomed suite.

I just want to go there now.

Thanks again all.

I'm still waiting for the April offers to come out. At the moment I've got the Flamingo held but toying with MGM (both are coming out at $250-$280 for 4 nights over Easter). If it was just me I'd probably stick with the Flamingo or head further up strip for a comped stay at the Riv but as my friend has never done Vegas before I'm thinking mid-strip for maximum wow factor. MGM has more wow factor but I find it's a bit of a trek as it's so big and not sure wow factor is enough. (plus their cocktail service I've always found to be really slow)
Decisions, decisions..............

How about a "Go" room at Flamingo. They are really nice. Mind, thats the only room I would stay in there.

Also Juicy Couture great discounts, especially if you use the Discount Passport on top eg blingy pink leather bag less was than $100 with retail $349ish. It was Discount Passport discount on top of winter sale discount on top of outlet discount. Bargain.

The Hollister there doesnt have any stuff (or didnt) with Hollister plastered across the front......these things mean a lot to kids!!!

And Nike...got some nice trainers there really cheap...good for walking the strip.

And they have a Coach outlet that can have some nice things...some of the stuff they have I cannot believe was ever sold in their shops as just so ugly...but there are some good bargains too. And at least when I have shopped there the prices I've paid have been less than what I expected from the tag and signs...so that's been a bonus. Burberry have a shop there too I think.

There's also a Williams Sonoma store that I love, but sadly the excess luggage fees to bring home much from there would kill me.

I prefer the outlet Malls in Las Vegas gets me every time I save a fortune but spend more than I ever usually would is that a saving ? :-0)

We like those too. Tony has to get more trainers and shoes every time we go. (Even when he says he isn't going to.)

I'm not overstruck with the GO rooms-all fur coat and no knickers- I'd rather book deluxe and upgrade for $20 to a mini-suite for this trip as it's girls trip-different as a couple. But we all have different tastes.
