while i've never used it, I have read people getting good deals for Signature via

Usually cleaning is extra if you want to pay it, and there's a cleaning fee at the end...I haven't researched enough to know how many of these are good deals and how many aren't, but may be worth looking into.

it's funny because I was thinking about the Triker phones this weekend and even mentioned to my husband that maybe I would enquire as to their availability...but I think we've decided to go ahead and buy one...there are occasions where it would be really handy and since we go to the US a couple of times a year we think it would be worth the $20 or so.

M and Ms personalise your M and Ms

Dont know if anyone else has mentioned it but while we were there in Aug, M and M opened a personalise your m and m machine. You can write any message you like and a few pre determined pics.

You write your message/messages on a terminal, then pick your sweets, drop them in a machine press a few buttons and then hey presto you have your very own m and m at a cost!!!.

Got some for my nephews birthday, he will get them tomorrow.

Its the first and only one of its kind

I would have taken some pics of that and the Vegas sign made out of M and Ms but my camera packed up

Jersey Boys is the one i have not seen that everybody raves about

I went to Jersey Boys in Las Vegas earlier this year and it was brilliant. It really is a must see show!

Hey - that's awesome! We're planning on sending a Christmas package to my sister and her family when we are there next month and something like this would be really cool...unlikely we would have heard about it if you hadn't posted so thanks!

ok
Acquaintances of ours have just got back from Vegas....stayed at Mirage on wedding package deal...I was telling them about IP as an option for a cheaper holiday if they wanted to go back.....so while they were there they popped over and asked to see a room....they were told to come back in an hour and someone from housekeeping would show them round.....they opted to stay in the casino and have a flutter and a few drinks .....anyway to cut a long story short....they were taken to see a room that they were told was one of the recently refurbished ones....they said it was stunning....I asked them if they took pics but they said they didn't like to with the woman being there.....and it wasn't a luv tub room.....so what were they shown???

Either they were at a different hotel ....or those "couple of drinks" were awfully strong !!!

I'm not an IP snob-rooms are servicable but stunning? Nooooooo

Morning fellow Vegasers, I have a quick question, I am visiting Las Vegas next month and as a surprise I would like to get a limo from the airport to our hotel on the strip, for four of us, after all this is Vegas.

After many searches I simply cannot find anywhere that does it, either the website wants your card before the total is shown or it simply doesn't work, I'm tearing my hair out here. I note on the first page of this thread it costs about $50 but if it costs a bit more then so be it but where can I find good sites that can provide this service?

Any help will be greatfully accepted.

Helicopter trips !

Am looking to do a helicopter trip that will take in the Grand Canyon, Hoover Dam , no more then 3 hours door to door . Did one a few years back ( cannot remember who) and am taking the GF this time who would like to see the sites. Not looking at landing in the canyon or white water rafting etc.

Any suggestions on what company is best ? And any discounts too ?
