And WAY too expensive :eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek:. I don't even know what the other folks who're going are willing to spend so guess the organiser needs to sort that out.
We got a VERY good deal through Expedia. It is worth it!
If you want to stay downtown rather than on the strip, the Golden Nugget is gorgeous and very reasonable.

Spurred on yet again by cha, I have listed two items on ebay, packaged up three ink cartridges for Tesco recycling and put an old printer on freecycle.:j
I really must list some more things on ebay, not done any 'baying' for quite some time now!
Cha..I think I love you!!

Hi TPA!
Hope you don't mind me asking you a question?
When you sold all your stuff through Music Magpie, did you receive a bag to send it back or a box or anything?
I have a fair few DVD's & CD's to sell so was just wondering..
Thanks in advance

No box, but they do send you a pre paid label, or alternatively you can use their free courier service. That reminds me I am due a phone call of them today.
One of my items has sold on ebay..less than 24 hours after listing it - am very excited (is only about £10 after postage and fees but feels like a lottery win:rotfl:) Think i'm so excited as it was something I forgot I had and had no intenetion of ebaying it, then cha popped into my head and I thought 'come on woman get your finger out'! So I did!!
Will be back later, have three mystery shop reports to write up first!

No not my dog, but does remind me of him - very cute but naughty!
E*A are making me laugh at the moment with the 'egg' shops, they have lowered the fee by 25% and are not paying the reimersment any more either! All my localish ones are still showing..surprise, surprise, I am waiting for the phone call asking me to do them at the last minute for an extra £1 if i'm lucky!:eek: Normally I would take about 6 of them and do a round trip, but for that money there is NO chance!
Have applied for a few eye jobs on Tern for next Monday, as again I could do 5 in a round trip making it worth while, trouble is they haven't got back to me yet, which leaves me in limbo, do I take other jobs in similar areas in the hope they get allocated to me, or do I leave it and have the day off, as I've said before with deisel prices the way they are I need to make a trip worth while.
Today again spurred on by cha I have:- Recycled diet coke cans in Tesco 34p earned:rotfl:
- Sold one of my items on ebay:jMaking £11.55 after all fees
- Dyed my own hair:eek:saving me £45 (hairdresser charges me £20 a cut and £50 for cut and colour), hair dye on offer in Tesco two for £10 so thought I would give it a go. I am currently '550' mahogany (sp) Am going to grow my hair again, can trim my own fringe so only need a cut three times a year:D:eek::p
- Printer has gone to a good home via freecycle
- Completed three mystery shops
- Booked one further mystery shop
- Requested a V Slicer on freecycle as ours has fallen apart
- Did the bi weekly shop at Tesco using my £7 off a £50 shop
- Used a 5p a litre off desiel voucher
- Gained another 5p off a litre voucher which I will use to fill hubbys car
- Am having NO wine tonight:j Cha hope your reading!!

Just a thought........
Hubby has got a PSP with games in the top of the wardrobe that he hasn't played in probably 2 years.......would it be wrong of me to list it on ebay without asking him........MFW - We've only gone and blooming done it!May 2013:j0
