If you're only after a clean safe bed for the night, maybe explore motel options rather than the casino resort hotels?

You'll probably want to check if there are resort charges and whether car parking is free or not.

The missus does like the idea of a Strip hotel though....I'm not so fussed, especially as it takes 20 minutes to get outside from the average room!

I recoiled about the cost of parking....Vegas has been going down hill ever since you couldn't put quarters in a slot machine anymore.....that sound!!!

If you stay at Linq, harrahs, flamingo, Cromwell you would be centre strip and on the strip within a few minutes of leaving your room.

Of course for one night it doesn’t really matter where you stay, most would recommend more than one night but I understand you find Vegas “dull” ��.

Walk up rates are expensive you will be better booking in advance

Not really, you won't get Marciano, Guess, Top Shop, Saks, Steve Madden, Norstrum, Neiman Marcus, Chinese Laundry, et all new season stuff at Primm. You'd be better off at Town Square where they have some of the outlet stores of the more main shops.

Who buys Tommy Hilfigger . Armani AX, DKNY, and the like these days anyway.

I have to admit that I prefer TH, DKNY and the like to some of those you have listed. Found some decent bargains in those stores. And Calvin Klein as well when we've been over the Pond.

Topshop & Guess is my idea of shopping hell. Not keen on NM either. Found that store rather expensive. And I couldn't give a toss about all the new season stuff either. As long as it's reasonably priced, and fits, I don't care.

It smile-tastic but rather an instant hit which fades by the morning. One night of inane grinning at the ludicrousness of the city will always be enough for us.

Criticising other people’s shopping choices on a travel forum is really not necessary.

For the record.....I have purchased Hilfiger a few times myself.

Me too, paid about $5 for a couple of T shirts last time

Primm is good for the drive out, but nothing more...
As reported above, most of the stores have closed, but the ones that are open (chain stores), the prices are the same at the Outlet malls....
I know, as i went to North 4 times ($5 parking each time), and 6 times to the south, and end up in the same shops (RL, Tommy, Nike, Coach, Fossil, etc)..... Same stuff, same prices.
That was last month
Still recommend Primm to make use of the drive!

Sign up to Simon Services (for the Outlet malls), you dont get the option now to get a voucher to exchange for a booklet, it makes u print off the vouchers instead...
It gives you access to the main booklet vouchers, and then specials (handy for the RL shop with 25% off when spending over $125 , which expired 31st May just to note) !, but you get the same specials quite a few times a year which are better deals than the booklet style vouchers...

I like the shopping, just not as much as the wife (hence going quite a few times last month!)...
After the discounts, it worked out to be like $14.20 inc tax for a crew/V Neck t-shirt in RL , good money saving!

We like Town Square too.

Present company excluded of course :rotfl:

Snowflake alert.

It was a joke, I know these people personally and its the way we talk to each other.

You go on a forum and its not all pats on the back you know. It's tough in the real world.

I have been on this forum for a number of years, so I know how most posters post.

Didn’t seem like people took your comments as a “joke”.

As for calling me a snowflake...had to look up what you meant by that...again, not really necessary.
