Does anyone going to Vegas soon want the two Triker phones? Theyre on Net10 but you cant top them up online......youll have to buy a topup card there.

Theyre free to any MSEer.......thank Triker not me. Let me know and I can send them to you.

many thanks to you both . love the whole "pay it forward" thing with phones . really sums up the sprit of this thread and the people who contribute

They'll also send you one for free along with 24/7 magazine.

I think it may have been Luci that first mentioned it and now we try to order one about a month before our trip now...only problem is that sometimes we get one where most of the vouchers are out of date....but it's still a nice thing to see come through the post slot.

I think you can now print the coupons as well.

Yes I've been ordering the 24/7 Magazine online for years. I normally order it about 3 weeks before we go and it arrives within 10-14 days.

It has the best offer I've ever found for Jubilee! at Bally's. 2 for 1 which is $70 for 2 tickets including a free upgrade to the $92 seats.

Totally agree about Ellis Island vote. Maybe some people don't want to be thought of as eating BBQ at the place, but you try and get a seating, if you are not in the first wave at 4pm then you have a looooong wait in front of you. I just love their ribs, never tasted more tender anywhere.

I know!!!! after prior warning on here me and OH arrived relatively early but we still had an 50 minute wait if we wanted to eat inside - outside wasnt so long a wait - but it was approx 112 degrees that particular day!!!!

Although the 4 free drinks at the bar (with ACG coupon) certainly helped the wait fly by as did the video poker win we had - which meant we were in profit after our visit there!

We also used the match bet ($10) on the craps table there - they have a "mini" table which is quite cute if anyone is feeling brave

I am not normally a fan of ribs and wouldnt really order them here - but they literally fall off the bone and are absolutely DELICIOUS!!
All I have for my lunch today is a chicken Mug Shot -

There was tell that EI were not honoring the 4 free drink vouchers from ACG any more. I think I even saw a memo from them on Open Vegas about it. They say it was being abused by the locals. How the hell that happens I don't know. 1 copy of ACG cost more than 4 drinks in that place.!!:rotfl:
If you haven't tried it, have a glass of their home brewed root beer, Tracy says it tastes like Gremoline, but I don't find that a bad thing

Remember, whatever it looks like on a map or out of your hotel window, MB is a long way out of it. Even the walk to MGM or NYNY which are both South Strip is a long way.

Possibly the inter-MGM-hotel trams may save some shoe leather, but they have particularly barmy and not intuitive stopping sequences.

We always have a car, but you dont always want to take it out.....the deuce is sloooow......taxis will get stuck in the traffic on the strip.....

But no denying its a great hotel.

Thanks, yeah we knew it was a way out, hope it won't spoil things, my friends have been to Vegas before so they have more idea than me of the distances involved.
What do you think would be the best way for 3 people to get around, would taxis work out as cheap for 3 of us??

...Oh, I hope thats not the case - I am finding the coupons in the ACG 2010 not as good as other years and that one in particular would have been one that we would definately use. We'll see. I will report back here!

My OH tried the home made beer the last time we were there and said he really liked it. I dont like beer at all, so I wont be trying it myself - but thanks for the tip! It was really, really cheap I seem to remember!

Steff,
Root beer is a fizzy soft drink. It is a little like Dr. Pepper I guess
Their Amber beer is the nearest to a bitter, it was $1.50 a pint last year, nice stuff as well.
