Looking at hiring a car just trying to decide what to hire what are people's views on the following

Dodge Charger
Jeep Liberty
Chrysler Sebring

Cheers

Charger for me too. Was pretty impressed when I had one.
Had a Jeep last year in Florida. No electric windows or central locking! It was a new car too!

Harrahs/Caesars win/loss statements are up now...always interesting to see how we did at each of the casinos over the year. Checked our MGM win/loss statements about a week ago and sure enough, biggest loss at MGM...I tell you we cannot win there for anything.

Hi folks, we're staying at Circus Circus in February (not my choice, group thing organised by someone else)....

1) is the $20 trick still widely used by you guys out there? Just wondering what I can expect at Circus Circus (cue jokes about room quality there I'm sure!)

2) The resort fee per day - is that chargeable per room or per person? Not entirely clear on the website - likely to be room but just checking.

Thanks

Thought long and hard for something positive to say about CC. Here it is. The Steakhouse is excellent.....particularly the Prime Rib.

.....And there was a Krispy Kreme stand when I was in it a few years ago . Never stayed there, so can't say about the $20 at check there, but still very much used in other hotels, so give it a go. And you're absolutely right, resort fees are per room, not per person.

I never realised rooms in Vegas were as low as $24!!! I believe CC has a recently refurbished tower........your $20 would be well spent upgrading to there. However dont expect too much......the best they have there is a $40 a night room.

Last time I went to Vegas, I caught Pneumonia and spent two weeks in hospital. To this day I swear I caught it from Circus Circus...............

Two more......its very convenient for the Tix4tnite booth AND The Peppermill. Both a short walk (so long as you dont get mown down on the strip).
