    Have a great time. Fingers crossed it doesn't snow anywhere you are connecting:eek:
    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.

    I've got a budget of £250 on gambling for my whole trip and don't intend on spending anything more... Plus I will only be playing poker tournys so will stick to only $25 entry fee's.

    Cant think of anywhere on the strip for a $25 tourney.

    Have a great time Boa. You deserve it after last time.

    We had dinner at Ocean One and thought the food and service were awful. Might have caught them on a bad night, but we won't be going back. They took the restaurant.com cert no problem.

    Im going in Sep next year (think ive said before,) but I'm so excited and have been on here every night for the past week! :o hehe

    so much information! Thank you guys!

    I need to work out how much spending money we are going to need. Ive read $150 for 2 adults for food is okay. My wife to be doesnt drink, and I wont mind soft drinks for most of the time. Free beers if playing the tables? (blackjack?) Plus tips obviously....

    Then theres the day trips we want to do

    then theres the evening gambling-strict daily limit will be in place. Hmm :eek: Time to up the income pronto!

    the cost of the "free" drinks soon adds up. tip $1 each time , plus your gambling loses and your often better off buying a drink .

    TBH i used get nicely mellow with a few beers and cocktail at dinner and then have a huge yard long Slushy Margarita to cart around after .

    you can always eat down Ellis Island if your low on cash or stuff yourself silly at a buffet .

    like Ferf says it's hard to tell you what you might need cash wise . but have a credit card handy for larger purchases .

    Someone mentioned having a few drinks and maybe a bottle of wine at night (Sorry, can't find the post now).

    Be aware that buying drinks is expensive in Vegas at a lot of places. A glass of wine is $9-14, bottles start at around $44.
