  • Hi everyone,

    Just wanted to say first this thread is awesome, so many good linkks and advice. Anyway me and my girflfriend are going to be in Vegas for 5 nites in April, I checked out Lucis link for MGM Grand at $49/nite with free drinks etc and seems pretty good?

    Does anyone know anything cheaper/better deal for anything on the strip or shoul I wait closer to the time for better deals! I know this MGM deal is good, I'm just wondering if theres anything better anyone knows of!

    Vegas will be dead when Hell freezes over!. I think you mean it sounds quieter than normal.

    good point pebblesmax,

    Compared to normal it is quiet, but just take it 150000 in town for a convention! and of course it is early Feb, 75degrees today so lets just say its worth getting out of the UK cold

    Presidents Day sales started today normal offers across the outlets

    Steve Huhh seems a good price you will enjoy the MGM

    I didn't mean to contradict you, Trust, but I'm glad you understood what I meant.

    I am heading over there on Saturday, just as the weather forecast is showing low 50's for Vegas next week....typical, lol

    pebblemax, totally understood,

    Pennylane99 don't worry about the forecast, this week was supposed to be the same and rain,

    But rain and vegas, doesn't sound right, guaranteed you will have sun!

    Just wondering if I can have another 72 votes for the pole above, just been to the Rio in the sky,

    Ok well I have seen the show twice

    Bascially the same as sirens of TI, plenty of young ladies dancing around! (better than some fountains anyway!)

    Have they changed some of the music on the fountains again, sure I heard Elton John earlier.

    Think in vegas now it is dog eat dog, you have casino's offering credits if you show them that you are a member of other casino's reward club and so on,

    So think it has come to the stage in vegas, if you are booking for a couple of nights 5+ you should find the cheapest and phone the one you actually want and see if they will price match (In otherwords have ba**S), they are desperate for buisness.

    I was upgraded for nothing, the young lady who checked me in, called me over today, and asked if the room was ok, and would I like some complimentary buffets etc so it pays to be nice and don't ask for the earth.

    This is Vegas, don't worry about the weather, the sun is always shining! (And you will not see much of it, you will spend to much time gambling or shopping, most of the pools I have seen even though it is mid 70's are shut or being refurbished, and there is a fair amount of maintenance work going on,

    No lions today in MGM instead you had a guy painting the bark on the trees, and the totally sad thing was you had people standing there watching him and taking pictures (Could only happen in Vegas!)
