    How often do the restaurant.com codes come up & can anyone advise me where I could find them? Is it still possible to buy a general cert using the 80% off code then use it to buy the most popular certs at the start of the month? (such as stripburger etc). Been to Vegas twice before but have never had restaurant.com vouchers.

    TIA

    Current code (80% off to 31st Dec) is CLEARANCE. At present they seem to have a buy 5 $25 vouchers get a $25 restaurant.com e-voucher...so effectively buy 5 get one free.

    If you sign up on their site they send you the current code by email (not sure if you have to have ordered before to get the emails with the codes though).
    Does remembering a time that a certain degree of personal responsibility was more or less standard means that I am officially old?

    Is anyone able to shed any light as to any reason why it is always a fair bit more expensive to fly to Vegas than it is to LA? Or is it just Vegas is a more popular location?

    I'm just curious...

    We've booked our accommodation :j:j:j,

    Gone for the Carriage House at $79 a night plus tax, hubby has the AA membership which qualifies us for the discounted rate ala the AAA offer on the site.

    Very, very pleased considering just how expensive it is in March.

    WE went on the US site afew weeks ago when someone on here posted about it.

    Sorry another question is coming, lol. I hope you all dont mind, and its probably a daft one too, when you get your tickets for a show do you get seat numbers, or do you just get put in a certain section?? We will probably get a taxi there if not then def get a taxi back. How long does P&T and JB last for?

    Thank again! Jodi x

    If you go to see Penn and Teller ( and i thoroughly reccommend it) I would suggest get on the rear row near the exit of the lower half of the theatre. At the end of the show they walk up through the audience and then wait in the receptiion area to meet and greet the audience. We sat in those seats and were first out so first to greet them. Made for some brilliant photos with them and autographs etc

    American airlines
    Out Feb 28th. back March 2nd.
    Now I have to wait!!
    Emailed a mate of mine that works for the IT department at BA (he is also who we use to park our car with). He has in the past managed to get us upgraded for free. Anyway, he can get me direct with BA for £475 each through the BA hotlink site at the moment (oficial price is £525). He says wait a few days as he knows for sure that BA are having a sale, even though they are suposed to be having a sale at the moment.
    Now what do I do, put all my flights with AA who I will get plenty of points from as our October flights to LHR/LAS/MIA/LHR are already with them, or split the points up for the convience of being able to fly direct???
    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.

    Just had a look on the seating plan, do they walk off the stage on the right or left side?? (I dont soppose it would make too much differene, oh cannot wait to see them). Did you buy something so they could autograph it? Or is the ticket sub big enough for them to sign??

    Thanks, for this Jodi x
