Is that MAG you are speaking about stoneman? Which bridge do you mean?

Sorry yes, didn't quote the origional post, sorry. the bridge is the one that leads to the Eifel tower ride above your head in the casino.

Luci, we have had breakfast there and if there were only 2 of you, you couldn't spend $50 unless you had a big appetite. Really cool to sit there and watch all the clubbers staggering down the strip at 7am in the morning.

Hmmm, I was thinking with coffees, juices and chocolate milk (if they do it) that would bump it up. OH will likely have the steak and eggs and I'd probably have the same if I was going to struggle to make $50.

I wonder if they accept it if the bill is less? Off to re-read the T&C's.

Bit off topic but here we go. OK, just back from a few days in the Algarve, and I am cured of ever going to Europe again. We noticed this last time in Tenerife and just had it confirmed this trip. Call me a snob but I am fed up of paying top price for hotel rooms in holiday resorts and getting a load of s**t. We are just spoiled I guess with getting 5 star accommodation for peanuts, and actually being treated like we matter. No wonder Europe is suffering from a downturn. The disdain that these people show towards the people that pay their wages beggars belief. And as for the flight, why can't people control their kids for at least 2 or so hour period in a day. No joke, we thought we were in a creche. I recorded some of the noise on my IPhone and will post it up somewhere when i get a chance. If they had put the terror suspects going to Guantanamo bay on a holiday flight with screaming kids they wouldn't have needed to integrate them, they would have been spilling the beans before they landed. All I can say is thank god Vegas isn't kid friendly.

I guess with all that you could make the minimum spend, but we had a really nice breakfast there for just under $30 (coffees, juice, 2 mains) so a bit of a false saving for us, seeing that the certificate costs $25 plus shipping

What did you have so I can consider it?

We are thinking of going to see KA - Cirque Du Soleil on August 6th while we are there.

I've heard that places can be selling tickets up to half price on the day of the show. Do the Cirque Du Soleil shows do this aswell? I'm sure one of the other C.D.S shows would be equally as impressive.

There's an offer kicking around at the moment, buy one ticket get the 2ns for $25. That is your best bet as you can't guarantee to get CDS shows at Tix4Tonight. Even when they are on they aren't half price.

Thanks Claire.

I looked at it the other day, but I wondered what stoneman actually had that he could recommend.
