Ally, Here’s a general tip for Living Social and Groupon. I usually try and call before I go or speak to person there. Tell them you could buy one but prefer to give them the whole price if they match the price. They always say “Yes” because it saves them a lot of money. After the deal gives you 25-60% off, they then have to pay Living Social and Groupon a very hefty fee. These deals are often a loss leader and if you don’t come back, they lost money. This way, the still love you and know that you are helping them too.

Thanks so much for the tips! The CNF fee and, most importantly, getting any cheaper hotel rates after making the initial reservation when booked directly. I booked 2wks ago for Nov'22 and re-checked the rates today, called the hotel for the newer lower rate, and saved $250 off the total stay! Will rewatch before our trip for a refresher. Thank you!

Congratulations and Well done on making the best video on KZbin on Vegas Money Saving Tips, I have seen lots of videos but this one is exceptional , thanks for keeping it real . This video is a must watch and can save you hundreds or at least provide you with a much better travel experience to Vegas. Arriving early in the morning , leaving your bags at the bell desk and exploring Vegas literally gives you an extra day without an expensive hotel stay just to sleep in a room.

Excellent vid Aly. Usually I spend 10 nights in Vegas (1fri & 1sat). Restaurant food day after day is bit much so I always get room with a fridge. First day I go to whole foods & buy few salads - fruit - bread - water …. & I bring a small kettle. Always eat out dinner but when I get up in morning or any other time it’s convenient to have quality snacks ! Whole foods is much cheaper than strip food & they have quality items.

Great tips. I also think people need to be realistic when coming to Vegas, as well. I've noticed the prices on everything (**i.e. food, resort fees, shows, etc.) have dramtically gone up in Vegas since at least around 2018-2019. So, for those that have not been to Vegas in over 5 years or so, are in for some serious sticker shock. The only prices that have remained stable are the minimums at the tables and slot machines.

Each trip we are rewarded with 4 more comp nights so we plan our next vacay while we’re there lol. We would love to stay at a nicer hotel but the Delano is 5star when it’s FREE lol. We also love the casino at Mandalay Bay which is convenient.

CVS and Walgreens do have liquor, but they are still overpriced. If you are near center strip, on E Flamingo between Bally's and Cromwell / Flamingo you will find "Stage Door". For an example, a fifth of Smirnoff vodka is ten bucks. They are right across the street at the crosswalk when you walk out of the Bally's food court.

if you have a reusable water bottle, many resort pool areas offer free water for fill ups. Also, even if a hotel offers an in room Coffee maker, do not use it. Its safer to bring your own maker. Hotel room coffee makers are a haven of germs, and there is a reason why when police go into hotel rooms they check the coffee maker very early in there investigations.

YES about the coffee wish I would of known that. We stayed at Bellagio and walked about a half a mile inside the hotel to get Starbucks which personally think their coffee sucks. I did stay in Signature at MGM which is not on Las Vegas Blvd but a block off of it and they did have a coffee makers in the room. I hit up the maid and she gave me a few extra packs. Great tip about Walgreens and CVS. I don't drink but we did buy quite a few snacks there at least half the price of the convivence store in the hotel or the stocked fridge in the room. Thanks for the Groupon idea. We have used them locally here. Overall many great tips. I have been using Vegas slots for a long time but not so much lately. I have more than enough to go to Vegas several times. Absolutely must see is Fremont. El Cortez is the doe blackjack. I won a ton of money there.
