    It says on the front and back of the PH tickets - "void after 30 days"

    Sorry that's what I meant, not an actual date but as you say above.

    Hi,
    We are going to be in Vegas May 19th to 22nd and we are hoping to stay at the Bellagio. Can anyone tell me when we can maybe expect to see some 'deals' for the Bellagio in May?
    Thanks in advance.

    ...and there is a 25% dscount code for Bellagio which runs from March to September:

    Yup - they tick that mall on the voucher youve printed off that site, and they give you a discount booklet for the shops at that mall. You can then use that discount booklet when you come to pay for your purchases.

    Thanks :beer:

    Sorry, maybe I have the wrong end of the stick here. Are we talking about the TITO that kicks out instead of money from a slot machine? I was under the impression they were just like money and could not have an expiry date on them. As I say, I might be talking about something entirely different than what pandapants has on offer. But we have used TITO's more than a year after cashing out. I am looking at one now from MGM Grand that doesn't have an expiry period on it.
    The common law of business balance prohibits paying a little and getting a lot. If you deal with the lowest bidder, it is well to add something for the risk you run, and if you do that you will have enough to pay for something better.

    Most TITO do have an note on them (sometimes on the front, sometimes on the back) that says that they are void after XX days...whether they actually stick to that or not I don't know...it sounds like in your experience you haven't had any issues cashing older ones - so maybe they are always good, they just say that they aren't?
    Does remembering a time that a certain degree of personal responsibility was more or less standard means that I am officially old?

    Thanks, NVH, really looking forward to it, the MD looks fantastic and we've got two nights there at a grand total of $174 for 4 of us, what a bargain.

    In the link you quoted above you said you had stayed at the Luxor and in the pyramid, we are doing the same but wondered how good the rooms were and whether it was worth trying to get an upgrade - like you we wanted to stay in the pyramid as that is what we are going there for.
    apologies, been away for the weekend :D completely agree with Sew (http://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/showpost.html?p=18255529&postcount=1181), Ferf (http://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/showpost.html?p=18282659&postcount=1199) and Stoneman (http://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/showpost.html?p=18255703&postcount=1182)

    You said 4 of you so i'm guessing you have kids? if so, yes, just go for it! :) (if it's just you as a couple, then try to get an upgrade to a jacuzzi corner room (where i believe the jacuzzi is 'in the lounge') :)


    Nice offer PandaPants (http://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/showpost.html?p=18285141&postcount=1200) - from what others say, it'll be 'void' when i go else i would've bit your arm off! :) everyone loves extra gambling money! ;) :rotfl:
