    Argh! I posted a link a few pages back which had 30% off. That one only had 25%.

    that deal you linked to didn't have that sort of discount for the date I wanted, and they have now added a new category of ticket that wasn't there before, very strange:confused:
    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.

    Hi guys,
    I am going to Vegas in a couple of days for my 4th time and I cannot wait - even though I have been before I have picked up so many new hints and tips on this thread so thank you all soo much!

    I am now wondering if I imagined something though...I thought a few months ago someone said there was a free shuttle from maybe Ceasars Palace to Walmart? I have searched the forum but can't find any mention of it and now think I might be going mad!! We usually go by taxi to the newer Walmart by the airport but then we always seem to have a nightmare getting a taxi back no matter how many we ring or try and book, so we thought a free shuttle would be a perfect solution! Can anyone remember anything about it at all, or have I dreamt it up!! :o

    Thanks all!

    I don't remember anything about a free shuttle being posted - but on page 33 there's a discussion about options to get to WalMart using the CAT bus. Maybe that was what you're remembering?
    Does remembering a time that a certain degree of personal responsibility was more or less standard means that I am officially old?

    Has anyone been to see Chris Angel at Luxor, we have only just seen this guy on you-Tube doing some of his walk about magic and he looks wierd but very very good. Prices look OK with second ticket for $25 but there is the usual strobe lighting warning and we wondered how bad it was. Kathy has really bad migraine (treated by injection so not the normal tablet version) which is set off by this. If it is just 1 part she will be fine covering eyes ect but if it is throughout the whole show there is no point going.

    Indout96 - do you mean the 'Believe' show... if so, I strongly recommend you read reviews on it before you even consider buying a ticket... it consistantly gets bad reviews and is probably the worst rated Vegas show on TripAdvisor... sure I read it consists of juggling and other 'tame' stuff not a patch on his TV tricks - he isn't even in it, he just 'helped create it' (i think)

    We were going to see it when it first came out but i've still yet to read anything remotely positive about it :( (think it came out around May last year?... or was it May this year... i lose track!)

    edit: I stand corrected... rated 486 out of 564 shows in vegas:

    Let us know how you do get on if you decide to go for it though! :)

    Thanks NVH think that has sorted it for us :beer: The stuff on you-tube looks great BUT the promo stuff on Luxors site is very poor. Thanks for the heads up.

    Just to reiterate what nvh says about Believe. I haven't seen a good review for it yet, but have read loads of bad ones. One to avoid unless you know what you're getting into.
