TRAVEL- The subsequent is my penny pinchers guide to Vegas. The greatest method to cut your holiday costs is to travel cheap. The cheapest flights are mid-week, Tues … Wednesdays are very best. In case you are "self working (a pro web-based poker player who sets his own hours)" Go last minute. You can find almost usually last minute deals to load those empty seats. So travel midweek and even better travel off-season. This will cut you overall vacation expenses down greatly.

TRANSPORTATION- When in Vegas it is possible to acquire around for no cost by walking and using trams. Or you can take the bus, which covers the entire strip and downtown for two bucks a fare. But I discovered renting a automobile works most effective and is at times less expensive than taking buses or taxis. If you go midweek you are able to obtain a auto for $15-$20 a day, inexpensive!

LODGING- The cheapest hotel I can bring to mind is Westward Ho rear. They’ve several of the lowest rates. Otherwise I usually stay downtown. Midweek you’ll be able to locate a room for close to 30-40 bucks.

FOOD- For a buffet look at the Gold Coast, its pretty excellent and only about $7. When in Las Vegas you’ve to try the $.99 Shrimp cocktail in the Golden Gate Casino. Want a larger serving? Attempt a half rack of ribs for less than 5 dollars in the Riveria. The Riveria is also famous for their 3/4lb hot dog. It’s Huge and only expense a $1.49. If you stay at Westward Ho you possibly can acquire a cup of coffee for the nickel. You’ll be able to receive a 1/2pound burger and fries at Key Largo for $1.99. And back on the Westward Ho for just a drink. You’ll be able to receive a 27oz Margarita for $.99.

GAMBLING- You possibly can wager on black-jack for a buck a hand at Slot machines a Fun. The Gold Spike has all sorts of penny and nickel slot machines for your entertainment. And I usually bet on a casino game of Texas holdem at the Excalibur. They’ve a 1-3 game that is the lowest in town!

So have enjoyable on your next Vegas family vacation and remember it does not have to expense you an arm and a leg.
