If you're not really in to gambling ,you can just sit down at one of the 'one armed bandit' machines when you see a hostess coming. Look like you're playing and just order a drink, she'll even bring you cigars and cigs too if that's your thing.

Vegas Baby!, by noblesart on Jul 20, 2011 14:27:03 GMT 1, Love Vegas!
For nights out go to www.vegas.com/nightlife/ and browse through all the different night clubs. Lots of them offer "open bars" for $50-70 which will get you most main stream drinks included all night.
We often go to VooDoo Lounge on the roof of the Rio...literally on the roof. It's pretty spectacular when you're up there.
Last time we were there we used www.hotwire.com for the hotel. Ended up staying in The Wynn for pretty cheap. If you want to really do it on the cheap though, stay at Hooters. If you share rooms, you're talking about $15 a night. Just don't go in the pool. The deep end smells like cabbage.

Vegas Baby!, by Wearology on Jul 20, 2011 15:37:38 GMT 1, If you want to experience TRUE Vegas than take a trip downtown where it all started. If you are going with a significant other take her for the most romantic dinner ever in a restaurant called the OAK Room it is located in the basement of the Four Queens hotel or if you are on a budget there are a ton of all you can eat buffets for $1.99. If you always wanted to shoot guns than there is a place where you can rent machine guns and other automatic weapons. If you like unique cars there is a place where you can rent a Lamborgini or other exotic cars. There is also a bar in Vegas that is completely made of ice that is really cool as well. If you are going solo and looking for some fun there is always the Bunny Ranch in Nevada. Send me a PM if you want to know more about Vegas as I go there a lot for work.

The Vegas 3 stars are good value especially mid week can be as low as 30$

If the UK version of "stag party" is the same as the US version, I would highly recommend staying there. Drop me a pm if that's of interest and I can help you out w/rooms.

Vegas Baby!, by speebe on Jul 20, 2011 19:22:32 GMT 1, I went there for a stag and you just need to avoid accidently funding the brazilian twins Uni education at one of the many off the strip, strip bars.
As noblesart said VooDoo lunge is a good shout.
I'm off there soon too and LA.... Taking the wife this time, so I may have to try the Oak room.
Keen to hear about good accomodation deals too.
Any more tips for me Cardiff & Wearology...?

Surprised that cost is a problem considering the amount of business you get from this forum!!
The buffets are great and playing penny slots for free drinks is another money saver.

Vegas Baby!, by dannygman on Jul 21, 2011 9:34:12 GMT 1, How does everyone get these free drinks?! I went back in december and didnt get one freebie!
No real advise Gary, apart from I stayed in the Aria, and loved it. Plenty of chicks loved the fact I was staying in the Aria too. (It was the easiest 'pull' you could have!).
I wanna go back in December but need to do it on more of a budget this time though!
