I'm just hoping it picks up. I had to wait till payday next week, so i'll just wait till the bitter end. Still in 4 weeks time,i'll be hours away, sat in the bubble, from Vegas!

I ordered from Thomas Cook at 620am when my husband got up and saw the news and alerted me.

Picked them up at 9am at $1.44.

I tried at 5.00am when I posted on here with the Thomas cook.

They were still showing 1.44 so thought I was going to get a result before they woke up,and changed things.
But I tried to order for in store pick up,and then delivery.....it wouldn't let me complete the order for either.

we're just back from a non-Vegas holiday and I am going to get caught up soon, but I know some of you will appreciate this...minutes before we were meant to be leaving for O'hare for the return flight yesterday. my first W-2G ever, Harrah's Joliet. I had been playing $1.50 / spin and had had the bonus, won about $40, was fine with that to end the trip...playing down to a round even number, had 4 or 5 spins at $3 and triggered the bonus again. Ended up with 25 free spins and was a bit miffed, particularly as I was ready to leave. But it worked out OK (and the paperwork only took 15 mins).

Well done ferf! Awesome win.

great win by the way ferf1223!
sadly my brother and i had sorta mixed luck playing the slorts, we spent alot of time playing the slots and often did $1.60 and $3 a go (as well as some inbetween and some lower limits)and some times got on the bonus and at $3 a shot we thought woohooo jackpot here we come and well we got like $12 from the bonus:mad:

Next Vegas trip booked





Only 277 days to go

we'll just miss you - we fly home a few days before you arrive.

still catching up - but great TR, Stuie! We had that $75/night wrap-around upgrade once. We had been offered the same for $150/night on a previous trip and declined, but for $75, particularly as we had both been suffering with what we think was flu or similar it was worth treating ourselves.

you guys really seem to make the most of your trips - sorry about the up-and-down gambling...though at least it wasn't all down!

I realise that the subset of Vegas enthusiasts on here who are also Hockey fans (of the ice variety) will be a pretty small one but....

The NHL have confirmed a new expansion means that a Vegas franchise will start playing at the new arena from the 2017/8 season - that'll be Oct 17 onwards. This makes them the only major league sports team in Vegas and is a pretty big deal.

We ordered dollars on Monday from FairFx and manged to get $1.47,didn't really want to buy so quickly after coming home but am so glad we did...with the dollars brought home and the ones from Monday got all my spends for October.so I am not going to watch them go up or down....although may get some more if they do shoot up!!!!!
