I know its Circus Circus but on Groupon..........2 nights sunday-thursday from now until Dec 19th......$59 bucks and they give you a $30 dollar food credit.  

Obviously its not the best place in the world, but if you are driving in from Cali or Arizona or anywhere..........with the food credit, you get 2 nights in a hotel for 30 bucks............its almost free!

INSANE DEAL ALERT

This just in on Travelzoo.

Planet Hollywood.

BASICALLY  any Sunday-Thursday in November and the first 2 weeks of December

$45 dollars a night.

Let me repeat............$45 dollars a night

I stayed there last year and I thought it was pretty awesome.  Rooms were awesome, Location was awesome and lots of eye Candy if you know what I mean.

Sportsbook is usually quiet........good place to watch a game and bet on some ponies!

There are some selected Sunday-Thursday rooms for January and February at $65 dollars a night

During this time, there are a few friday and sat night rooms between 95-144 per night

Seems like a good time to go, maybe suck up a sat night stay and have a college football, NFL is the heart of the season.

Airfares are pretty inexpensive during this time too

Glad to help anyone if they needed, if not, hope this helps!

Here is a tip Billy.  I have lived here in Vegas for 12 years.  I have worked at 5 different casinos and seen lots of great deals over that time.  When I last worked for a Ceasers Entertainment property they had a friends and family rate for all employees.  I am sure there is someone here at pregame that must work for them.  Other casino companies also offer this at times.  maybe someone will step forward and help out pregame members.

You gotta check this out

IF you EVER wanted to go to Vegas the time may be right.

Caesars entertainment just posted some FANTASTIC deals.  Now until the end of the year( roughly Dec 28th)

Imperial Palace, Flamingo, Bally's and Harrahs.......INSANE SAVINGS

Flamingo, Bally's and Harrahs are as low as 30 dollars a night

Imperial Palace, as low as 20 bucks a night...........22 on certain Fridays on Saturdays.

Obviously its not 5 star accomodations, but the location cant be beat.  I mean hell, you can find a good deal on a really good hotel and stay there midweek, and slum it at the IP for under 50 bucks total for Friday and Saturday night?

Lots of good deals, usually come out on a Tuesday...........now if I can find some good airfare to match for you.  Jet blue came out with some deals today.........From NY, there are no deals.

BUMP IT UP

Time to visit RJ and JD in Vegas

Hey Billy,

I'm debating going to Vegas, leaving Nov. 7th-8th to the 11th. Need hotel and flight. Nothing too crazy but prefer not to be at circus circus, stratosphere, luxor, mandalay, or excalibur. Like to be in the middle of things (i.e. flamingo, ballys, etc.).  If you get some free time, your help would be appreciated. Im transitioning jobs and have a small window to fit a vacation in. Thanks!

Oh, flight would have to be out of Providence, RI or Boston, MA.

Hey Ace

At first glance, Boston is obviously the much better option...........and it looks like the 7th.

I know it would be nice to be in Vegas for an NFL sunday, but how would you feel about leaving at midnight, on sat night/ sunday morning...........if the price is a HUGE concern

Also, are you going to travel by yourself, or bringing someone.........because that makes a BIG difference on price

The more info you get me, the more I can help you.

Ok Did some sorting around.   Sometimes you have to be tricky.......and break things up

You cant fly for anything resembling a decent price direct

How does this sound

Wed Nov 6th.  United Airlines.  Leaves roughly 5pm..........stops in DC, and you get to Vegas at roughly 1030pm.   Price $115 one way of the trip...........seems to me a very good price

Sunday Nov 11th   Delta Airlines......Leave Vegas at 1115pm, stops at NY JFK and then you get to Boston at roughly 10am Monday Morning.  Price of this leg of the trip  $211............outside of flying Spirit Airlines.......which I wouldnt do unless I was flying an hour from NY to Myrtle Beach SC.........is double, and you still need to stop.

So far airfare comes in at roughly 330 bucks.....which is pretty pretty good

Working on the rest now

The problem I am having is the price of that Saturday night stay.  It is Veterans day weekend, right after a presidential election.......  I dont think the election has a lot to do with it, but Veterans day being celebrated on that monday sure will.

If price is a serious issue..........can we leave late tuesday night and come back on the redeye saturday night/ sunday morning?
