Expedia.co.uk has some special Hertz rates for selected dates/duration. For some combinations it is upto 50% cheaper so might be an option for some but ONLY if you have third party excess cover (insurance4carhire,...) as the special rate only includes Collision & Damage Waiver, Theft Protection and Third-Party Liability Insurance.

warning: Excess could be over £1000 for certain cars

Morning All,

Travelzoo have this morning extended the Monte Carlo 96-hour low rates plus buy 1 get 1 free buffet deal sale to include up to the 18th of July (was until the 5th previously). Hope this helps someone. Need them to extend it just a couple of weeks more for me!

I know it may be a wee bit lowbrow but we've always liked the Excalibur in terms of location. The rates at the moment are ridiculous with this deal and summer dates are coming in as low as $24 per night.

Cheers,

Billy

How much is reasonable? Any links to this?

ive seen it, when it toured, paid 10£ a ticket, for that price i thought it was very good, if i had paid full price 30£ a ticket i would have felt cheated probably, show did not last very long and although clever didn't give me the same "buzz" that other shows can give...so if price is between 10-30 i would say go for it
but thats just me

I'm going to Vegas with Thomas Cook in June, will I have to pay a resort fee when I arrive as in theory I've already paid for everything. I'm staying at New York New York by the way.

I would say that you have paid everything upfront, but the Vegas hotels seem to be trying to get these fees out of everybody, so who knows?

$13.43 a day if you do have to pay, but I would certainly argue my case if they ask for it

Of course if you want internet access then it makes sense to pay it....Thats got me thinking that it prob isnt included in your prepaid anount...sorry I just dont know

I seem to remember reading that many thought Stripburger was going to close due to Cafe Ba Ba Reeba closing.
Is this still the case, does any one know? Or is Stripburger still going strong?

Just on the off-chance, anyone here interested in a brand new Archos 705 160gb ? PM for full details, it's about to go on Ebay if no interest.

We have booked and paid upfront with Expedia , and I will still have to pay the resort fee when I arrive , What really annoys me is that their are 5 of us going and staying in 3 rooms so I have to pay 3x9x$7.50 for something that none of us will use, now that p****s me off
