Hi Everyone :wave: Hope you are all well, guess what??.......2 Sleeps until I am off :j As I am a Vegas Virgin, I wonder if you regulars would oblige in answering a few things for me......

1. We are flying BA, is everything on the flight free (I think not but DH has a tendancy to believe everything people tell him).
2. I cannot find any 2 for 1 vouchers for food, do you get them over there and have also been told usually kids eat free?
3. We have found a few free things for us all ie fountains, volcano etc, can anyone recommend a super show that the kids will love, someone recommended David Copperfield, but I have saw him in Glasgow and yes he was amazing, but, cheapest tickets I can find start at $85??? I want to make it memorable for them as well as us

I appreciate any replies you may have on this xx

Quick question for any big slot machine winners on here.
I was looking at some tube of you clips of people winning on slots, some of them were freaking out at winning a few thousand $$$ but some were saying that they had to pay taxes on any win over $1200 (when the attendent has to hand pay), and others were saying that it's over $2000 that you would have to pay taxes. I think it's been mentioned here before but I'm struggling to find the comment.

Does anybody know what the amount is??

I'm only asking because last time I went I won $500 :j on my biggest hit (video poker 4 aces & a deuce at Wynn yay!!). So I reckon I'm due a real biggie this time round, so want to be prepared IYSWIM

Ta very much

Yes food and drinks including alcohol are free with BA.

2 for 1 coupons are usually in either the American Casino Guide which you could have got from Amazon, but no time now, or MRB with membership of a website the name of which escapes me at the moment.

The kids might like the Lion King or one of the Cirque shows. There is an offer for the Lion King on https://www.travelzoo.com

You need to pay tax on a win over $1199. You can claim it back by completing some forms. Some of the casinos will help with this or I think you can get the form from the IRS.
