if you're going midweek you can pull up rooms for $40 and under, off the strip.

www.lasvegashotels.com
www.lasvegas.com

these had pretty much the same prices, vegas hotels had more of a selection. the farther away you get, the more you'll end up paying in cabs though. i found a great map showing where all the hotels are. i haven't checked out the monorail map yet, but i'm assuming that it will be easy to stay at one of the cheaper hotels up the strip so long as it's on the rail line. Circus Circus and the New Frontier have rooms for $50. Boardwalk shows rooms for $64. i just booked my room a few hours ago, these prices were good as of late sunday night.

Cool thanks so much, by the sounds of it it is hard enuf organising a trip out of state, for me it's organising a trip from half way around the world!

Well if you need some Vegas money - you could always start a bogus Ebay auction to get your ass there

It worked so well for the crazy who already tried it

seriously though - good luck

Aww, Dee! Is there really no way? You keep getting oh-so-close, it's like a sign that you should go, IMO.

You'd really only need 2 days off, 3 tops if you planned it right.

too much BS goin' on here for me to go to the Vegas shows & not feel guilty about leavin' the fiasco/situation to my siblings

Villavic · #14 04-25-2005, 02:52 PM

what I did find out is that hotels are far expensive on weekends. All kind of hotels. I stayed one saturday night at a Days inn (ugly) and it wasn't a big difference from an Excalibur or Mandalay on weekdays.

But that was may 2003. Don't know right now.

I understand why you're not going. But maybe because of all that bullsh*t is why you should go? Like in the middle of all of this just do this thing for Brian. The mess will be there when you get back. Just a thought.
