You can be the one who suggests fun activities that will be kind to your wallet and still allow all of your friends to have that crazy Vegas trip they likely desire. Here are the top five ways that you can make your stay in Vegas an inexpensive one:
Add your favorite hotels on Facebook.
If you add a hotel like Treasure Island on Facebook, sometimes you can get up to 20 percent or more off your entire stay. You may also be entered into giveaways that provide you with a free stay. Becoming a “fan” of a hotel on Facebook is the way to go if you like getting free upgrades too!
Get a list of casinos with free buffets.
Try to make a list of casinos that offer free buffets. You may also want to sign up for a comp card with a casino before your arrival to Vegas. This will help you save time and avoid long lines at the casino. Casinos like the Mirage and Caesar’s Palace are known for giving out free buffet deals to visitors who sign up for a comp card.
Follow Vegas shows on Twitter.
Pick out a few Vegas shows you want to see during your stay. Try to follow the actual shows on Twitter, and you may just land 10 percent or more off your tickets. Some Vegas ticket dealers are also known for displaying promotions on their Twitter feeds to attract more visitors.
Book your tickets online.
Booking your show tickets online can also save you some money. There are websites that also allow you to buy the tickets of other people at the last minute. You can save hundreds of dollars by purchasing tickets this way.
Buy tickets at the last minute.
You can also try buying tickets at the theater counter at the last minute. Some theaters will have an “auction” that allows you to purchase tickets for Vegas stand up shows at drastically reduced prices.
Before you head off to Vegas for the time of your life, keep these tips in mind. You will keep more money in your pocket and may even be able to play a few extra hands of blackjack!
