So, how did I like Las Vegas this time? What about my stay at the New York- New York Hotel?
I promised I would get back to you on this a few days ago, and I am finally getting my lazy butt around to it. I did post a review on New York-New York here. To summarize, I liked it. I would definitely stay there again and I recommend that you do to.
As far, as the trip, it was awesome. I wasn’t at work and I was in Las Vegas how could that possibly be bad. A couple of things to pass along, I highly recommend getting a players card at your hotel. And then only play at that hotel or it’s affiliates. I managed to get a few meals and all of my hotels rooms comped this time, and I definitely didn’t do any hardcore gambling.
Also, I went to Spamalot while I was there (great show by the way) but, because this was a last minute trip I bought my tickets at The Wynn in Las Vegas. I think I spent around $135 per ticket but…… I see that has them on for $120 per ticket. There was only 2 of us so this wasn’t the end of the world but if there are more you could save enough for breakfast.
On that note, I am constantly amazed at how expensive meals are starting to get in Las Vegas. It is practically impossible to find even a hamburger for under $15. I plan on doing some research and see if I can find a discount package that is worth it for people staying on the Strip. Yes, you could go off the strip to eat but… how does it make any sense to spend $10 on a cab to save $5 on a burger. There has to be a better solution.
Anyways I will post any news when I come across it if you have anything to share please, add it to the comments.Talk to you soon.

I recently returned from Las Vegas and I have to admit I committed one of my cardinal sins; I bought my tickets at the box office and paid at least 20% too much. Granted this was a last minute trip, but it is always recommended to buy tickets before you go. Not only will you save some money but you will guarantee yourself a spot.
I usually recommend sites like or StubHub.com today we will look at a new service. Actually new may not be the right term for Tickco.com as they have been around for over a decade but nonetheless they are new to MeOnNeon.
Looking over their inventory I have to admit that I am quite impressed. They do offer a complete line of Las Vegas shows but their specialty is broadway show tickets. Add to this a complete sporting event line-up and you should be able to find just about any show your heart desires.

So I made it back from another Las Vegas adventure. Happy but broke you gotta love Sin City.
I stayed at New York New York this time, which was a first, and I have to say I was pretty impressed. I plan on writing a more comprehensive review over the next few days so check back to see what I have to say.
This time of year is such a good time to go. The weather was perfect hovering in the mid 70’s every day. With Spring Break officially started now if you are not into large crowds and busy lines you may want to give it a couple weeks before heading to Vegas. However, if you are into crowds and looking for last minute deals, you may want to try out Travelocity’s latest .
I did manage to squeeze in a show this trip, despite only going for 3 days. Spamalot, by Monty Python , is a musical of their big screen hit The Holy Grail. Tickets range from $75 USD to $178 USD. With the highest priced tickets, also called the VIP package, a backstage tour is included. Since no photography of any kind is allowed during the performance, this is an excellent way to record your experience since you can happily snap away backstage. This VIP tour takes about 45 minutes to complete, and I feel, is worth the dollars simply for the unique experience. Word to the wise though, buy your tickets before you go and you will save some moolah. Both and Viator offer competitive ticket packages.
I did check out a service called Tix4Tonight but I will tell you more about them and a few other Vegas tidbits tomorrow. Until then, ciao!
