For Rooms most of the Casinos will match on there own site any internet price so your not going to find a better deal for those places online. I normally use lasvegas.com to get pricing ideas. Then go to the sites of the hotels and see if they have any good packages.

For shows there are few little places on the trip that sell last minute discount show tickets. The other option is if you are there with a Significant other go see some timeshare thing and get free or deep discounted show tickets.
But the more popular shows normally don't have much if nay discount.

EMAIL SENT!!! Enjoy!!!

But all you have to do is sign up for the emails from the casinos and let the junk emails roll in. They usually have great deals. i.e. I stayed at mandalay bay for 69/night.

If you want a really good vacation, call up a time share and ask them to tour the facility and stay there for a night or two. All you have to do is attend a presentation and keep saying NO. Hey its free and you get a meal out of it.

For shows, stay at a hotel where you want to see the show. They usually give great deals if you talk to the concierge (hope i spelled it right).

The deals in the emails are on the sites too normally son't need the spam. The only ones that aren't are players deals.

you can also stand in line for shows even though they are listed as sold out. its kind of a pain, but I stood in line for O once with my girl and this guy gave us some extra cash to buy him and his girl tix too. then we went back to his place for a party(<---this part very untrue)


There was no dicount on the tix but at least we got to see the show, which btw was awesome!

Didnt read the other posts so I hope I am not repeating somoene, but you can find bitchen room rates at Vegas.com . If you buy the room through them be aware your not gauranteed a room till shortly befor eyou go....... So what I do is check Vegas.com a couple months before I go, then call the hotel right then and make my own reservation directly, and ask for the low price listed.

You can actually do that with ANY of the travel sights, IE Travelocity, Priceline ETC. One of the Hotels told me directly, they will always match the online price, its that much more money the hotel gets, seeing how the site is selling what they bought, and marking up what they get the room for"
