    Thanks

    I have contacted Ticketmaster via twitter and they said the show is still going ahead.
    However I have just recieved this from Caesars



    We haven't received an official cancellation notice for 8/22/16. They are currently on a 'Stop Sale' which prevents further sales. We should have a final decision by early next week confirming that the show will in fact be cancelled. If that occurs you should be notified and you may exchange for a different date or receive a full refund.

    We apologize for the misunderstanding and inconvenience this may cause.

    Aghhh another waiting game.

    I really want to see them. I had front row tickets too. Sigh!

    Hi

    We can see it the night before; it looks like there are still some seats though not at the front.
    I do not know whether to risk booking more and not waiting for the swop. As I am worried we will miss out. I am also impatient which isn't very MSE.
  • Asda has a cushion with Golden Nugget on it. Currently in the sale from £7.00 to £3.50 according to the tag, but went through the till at 88p. Nothing spectacular, but great for the spare room etc.

    I saw them last week. Might get one for 88p if there are any left.

    I'm sure this, or a variation of it will have been asked before so apologies for the repitition.....

    For car hire I've only ever used carhire300/rentalcars.com for US bookings.

    I'm tempted to book Avis via avios.com this time around as its actually slightly cheaper and I'll earn a few thousand points.

    The question is will I get the same cover where I don't need to worry about additional insurances etc when we get there?
    Is it the collision damage waiver I should be looking for? That is listed as being included.

    Thanks in advance.

    You should I think get the same cover from any uk broker ( if avois .com is a uk broker)

    Have you tried Alamo Brits, I have found them the cheapest the past 3 years with the added advantage of being able to go straight to your car as long as you do the pre check in with them online

    Thanks. I'll check Alamo Brits. The main attraction is the avios points though.

    Just booked another trip. Virgin sale made me do it. Could possibly get direct flights cheaper than £516 each, but we are happy with it. My dad will be coming with us, (his first time since mum died) so the convenience of direct flights is worth it.

    hi
    and sorry to hear about your mum !, and i hope your dad knows what to expect,its vegas after all! when was your deal for date wise?
    I was gonna ask about when airlines do there sales and will check virgin, though sadly, being in edinburgh the *closest* direct flight from us is glasgow( just the hassle of getting through there and then on the way back after a 10hours flight) so i have sorta though about going down to london and getting a direct flight there!

    when do other airlines do there sales? or is it just one of these things that pop up now and again?

    kind regards
