    but i did go on X Scream @ The Stratosphere , very scary .

    I really want to go on X Scream - I would never, ever in a million years ride Insanity, but X Scream I would. My FIL promised to go on it with me sight unseen - but when we got there, he backed out faster than you can even imagine. I swear I'm going to go on it on my own one day. :)
    Does remembering a time that a certain degree of personal responsibility was more or less standard means that I am officially old?

    I remember couple of years or so someone from Bristol committed suicide from Insanity. They managed to undo the restraint and just jumped!!
    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.

    A few weeks ago i booked the following offer at MGM

    Exclusive Offer!
    * Daily access to the Grand Buffet for 2 people
    * 2 Complimentary admissions to Studio 54 or Tabu
    * 25% off Grand Spa or Christophe Salon
    * 2 Free inner tube rentals
    * $15 Free Slot Play
    * $30 upgrade per night to Celebrity Spa Suite
    Promotion Runs
    July 2, 2009 - February 28, 2010

    With my trip less than 2 weeks away, i decided to log onto MGM and view my reservation.. the reservation does not show any PROMO code.. or any of the above offer items. Just my personal details, dates and price ,,, has anyone stayed at the MGM is this normal.. or should my reservation show the offer details? I'am worried when i arrive at check-in they will not have any record of the offer .... I planned to email but they only seem to have Phone contact.

    Hope someone knows the answer!

    I don't think your reservation will detail the goodies you get for the promo. If it makes you feel better you could try calling using one of the companies listed in the International Call Checker here (£0.005/minute)

    http://callchecker.moneysavingexpert.com/intcallchecker/usa

    Or you could try this email: [EMAIL="mgmres@lv.mgmgrand.com"]mgmres@lv.mgmgrand.com[/EMAIL]

    But calling will be quicker and easier I think.

    never had an issue with MGM properties and offers the booking just show the stay when you check in they will confirm the rest
    use ferf's email address above to confirm and as long as you booked this offer you will receive.
    It has been questioned on here In the past an never heard of any issues have a good stay I was there last week and back in a couple of weeks nice temp at the moment.

    Don't be saying that :eek: I don't wish to know that these restraints are undoable!

    I honestly get cold feet at the prospect of venturing on any of those Stratosphere rides but then i'll regret it if I don't!

    I think i'll definitely do NYNY, Sahara, and the rest well, we shall have to see.

    Also, some dutch courage, will encorage :beer:
