I have booked with them 4 or 5 times before to go to vegas. In fact my trip in 2 weeks is booked via them

They used to be know as lowcostusa, you might of heard of them
I bagged a spa suite at the MGM for a week for 3 adults including flights for just over £700 each

Thanks for that, just joined. snip ............../QUOTE]


Thanks Luci, I also frequent the Tipadvisor forum for LV. Can get rather rowdy on there at times, some good banter.

ON the MSE LV forum I find a good mix of regulars and newbies, whereas in the short time on the FB group a lot of newbies go on there by the sounds of the questions, that is not a bad thing as we all had to be a newbie. The thing about LV is that however many times I have been there is always something different to experience.

hi I sooo wanna return to vegas snip ……….

Bobby, do you have enough Myvegas coins to get 2 free nights? For the remaining 3 check out Smartervegas, they have insider deals direct with the hotel that you may not find on the MGM booking page. The good thing about Smartervegas is that you will still book using your mlife login so earn points etc.

I would also check your mlife account to see if there are any comps available. As a low roller (very low) I often get offered 2 or 3 nights comp at Lux or Exc, which would be ideal if solo.

I have gone solo a few times and don't normally stay in the same class as I would do with my Wife, I don't mind roughing it for a few days;)

MGM Grand is very nice and perfect for a solo traveler IMO. I would avoid the West Wing room category and would choose a Grand King or Grand Queen room. West Wing rooms are very small and dark IMO.

Looking at getting some cash changed up for the upcoming trip. Are there any high street operators who are happy to give you mainly 1s 5s and a few 10s... I nearly always pay by card but just need some small notes for tips

Debenhams were super helpful with this, so got a while bunch of 1s and 5s for tips... I'm determined to pay/tip by card where possible, but housekeeping, casino floor waiters aren't really card friendly

Solo Trip
7th June - 5 Nights
Stay in Hooters, as its a good location strip wise , and based on cost...

Lastminute = 1-stop flight using Westjet & inc bags = £780
Lowcostusa = 1 stop there, but 2 stop return inc bags = £813
