    Lemme guess......VirginDollar Platinum insurance is about £25 a day.......thru CH3000 you could get a car rental with insurance for about the same cost if not less.....most people in the know never pick up the VirginDollar car as they have organised their own for less.

    Anyhow, they will offer you additional insurances "just to be safe" eg tyre damage insurance, breakdown insurance, lose your car keys insurance.......I never take those ones. Theyll also offer an upgrade of course.....

    No, Premium insurance was only £5 per day and checking the total prices of the package Virgin came in at a decent price for a change.

    As far as we know anyone can book - it says to send it to your friends and family and I would imagine they would send it onto others...so...it's up to you though but I would doubt they would want proof of who your friend or family member is but I suppose it's possible. Rates are usually similar to the rates you can get from the London Clubs International link - so if you're a member (or can become a member of any of their UK casinos) maybe that would be an option.

    Does remembering a time that a certain degree of personal responsibility was more or less standard means that I am officially old?

    As long as you book a refundable rate you can always keep looking and change if something better comes up later.

    Im sorry but those who honestly believe the Bellagio Fountains is the best free thing to do in Vegas must not have gone to Freemont and got legless on $1 margaritas.

    Im liking your link though :)

    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.
