    whats the link for the MAG certificate?

    The MAG certificates are sold out now - and they could only be sent to an address in the US or Canada. They were also only good for breakfast.

    They were here (great find by Luci):

    http://cbsvegasdining.mediawebconnect.com/Mon%20Ami%20Gabi/16919

    There are other Vegas restaurants there but you'd need to have somewhere in the US or Canada to have the certificates sent. Edited to add - many of the restaurants are also on restaurant.com - so after the shipping and handling fee for cbsvegasdining restaurant.com would win out anyway - the MAG was a great exception.

    Hey guys, well we got back from another great trip to Vegas on Thursday morning:( Had a fantastic time at both Venetian and Encore and am about to start writing up my TR for anyone who's interested. I was very sensible on the plane ride home and told OH that i thought we should take a break from Vegas and visit other places to expand our horizons blah bah blah.................. needless to say we were only back home a few hours when he was asking what flight prices i had already come across for december - he knows me too well:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    Anyway as a taster here are a few of the things we did: Love, Le Reve, Switch, Stratta, Tableau, Town Square, Titanic Exhibition, Secret Garden & Fremont Street Experience:D

    welcome back, Claire! Really looking forward to the TR and I totally understand the thing about planning to go somewhere else next holiday and then looking to book Vegas pretty soon after you're back. :)

    I understand it too! Have just booked some night next May at a good price "just in case" we go again.

    Welcome back Claire. Glad you had a good time.

    Hi everyone,

    I am a long time lurker on the thread, and usually its my other half that posts on here!!:rolleyes:

    We have booked to go back to Vegas in May next year for our honeymoon. :j I would really like to organise something special for us to do while we are over there, not really as a surprise but as a sort of gift (If you see what I mean:o) and was wondering if any of you wonderful people had any ideas??

    Thank you in advance

    What about a limo ride from the airport or at some time during your stay? A visit to a shooting range; there are a couple to choose from. A visit to the Grand Canyon or just a night flight over the strip.

    Can't remember which restaurant I read about, but the r.com cert wasn't valid on the cheaper Prix Fixe menus and it had to be $79 or above per person.

    Its hard to give ideas without knowing anything about her and her tastes but here are some things i would like/have liked:

    * day at a spa
    * romantic dinner followed by a show (Le Reve Champagne circle seats
    looked lush, i really regretted not going for this option)
    * trip to the Grand Canyon, overnight stay to see it at sunrise/sunset would
    be very romantic
    * gift voucher for a store you know she loves

    Everyone is different though, a shooting range would be my idea of hell and a limo ride would be lost on me whereas a close friend of mine loved both those things. If you're into clubs how about splurging on bottle service at a top club, or upgrading your hotel room to a suite?
