did you mean the above post?

I meant that I think those times are only for one week and that each week the times change (although not 100% on that)

hi and thanks for the info,

Im gonna be trying for the next 2-3 days and if not well i ll try for other 241 buffets.

duchy, ye i can understand that people are soemtimes just chatters or nervous flyers and i can understand and accept.Im not much of a chatter myself and well the holiday to new york/vegas had finished so i was sorta annoyed that the holiday was over and i had a looong flight!

Hovis91- that sounds an awful experince ! hope it was a once only time it has happend!

traveller - what a story! As i ve said im not much of a chatter and with us leaving vegas ( we thought for the asat time due to money) I was not in the best of moods ,put them together , its best just to leave me alone!!

I was undecided on this too. I didn't know they had got a freebie from it but thought that's what they were trying for because if I'd have been that daft I would not be admitting it to the world!

I felt sorry for them that they had been saving all that time so I tried a dummy booking to see if it was possible to get it that wrong but it clearly gives you the option of Birmingham UK or Birmingham Alabama, however if you do choose wrong at this stage when you go onto next page it just states Birmingham. Flight duration and price should have been another clue but if you have no idea of what those are then I suppose it's possible....

Let's hope they do a bit of research about Vegas before they go

I'm still convinced they'll end up in circus circus, convinced they booked the Cosmo or anywhere else beginning with C. Queue the hapless,pouty poses again :rotfl: I was fuming they got free flights though!

To annoy you even more they got flights and 5 nights accommodation from Virgin! Do Virgin even offer Circus Circus? I know they have Cosmo!!

Thanks for that Ferf. I'm torn between booking Mandalay bay for the wave pool as a cheap water park day, along with cowabunga bay or booking a tournament of the kings ticket. We're staying at the signature so will have the mgm pool but thought the Mandalay pool does look nice and we'd all benefit rather than just my youngest and me. Plus, we're already doing KA and recycled percussion. At least I know july rooms are out.

We didn't pay tax on our groupon. Might depend on the staff member. Only time we've had to pay tax for a groupon was when we did the 2 yard drinks at Fresh.

I seem to like different buffets from people sometimes. A lot of folk are saying they don't like the Bellagio buffet any more, but I find it just the same, and I tend to eat the same things at it. My favourite is Wynn, but there are never any deals so we only go once per trip usually (or extra if we do breakfasts).

Did you use the current Groupon offer?
It states in the T&C that you will have to pay any taxes and fees.

I went with Mandalay bay as everyone wants the wave pool☺ Lesley the senior frogs yard glasses are the Groupon price anyway after 3pm o n their website,so don't buy it especially.

Can anyone recall if MyVegas offered tickets to billboard awards in the past. Taking place on May 22nd at Tmobile arena and I assume 1million LPs which I'd have with 2/3 refunds

Not sure about last year but they were offered in 2014 . 2 premium tickets and 2 nights at MGM Grand for 1 million LPs
