Doing Las Vegas on the Cheap
By Len Butcher
In a recent study, Las Vegas has been named the third most expensive destination in the country, but if you take advantage of the "deals" and coupons offered by our hotels and restaurants, it can be one of the least expensive. Here's a few that will save you money and allow you contribute more to our slot machines.
The Sopranos Last Supper Show, in the Krave nightclub next to the Aladdin on Harmon Avenue, has a $20 off coupon. This is a fun show.
Another fun show is at O'Shea's, between the Flamingo and the Imperial Palace. The casino is offering a coupon for free admission to the Vinnie Favorito Show if you buy a Favorito CD or T-shirt for $15. You can save 25 bucks a person on this deal and have a great time as well. Gotta warn you, though, comedian Favorito is another Don Rickles, so beware.
One of the best, if not the best buffets downtown, is at Main Street Station and the hotel is offering a 2 for 1 coupon to the buffet for out-of-state members or new sign-ups to their slot club.
If you're in the mood for some music, the House of Blues in Mandalay Bay has a coupon for free admission to any of these following shows: Monday & Tuesday nights Rockstar Karaoke; Friday Nights Flashback to the 70's,80's and 90's Dance Party; Saturday Nights Boogie Knights Dance Party; or Sunday nights Purple Reign (Prince Tribute).
Want to wash down a hearty meal with a great beer? Then take advantage of the Hofbrauhaus coupon that gives you a free 10-ounce beer with the purchase of any lunch or dinner entrée. Or you can get a free gift if you make a purchase of $25 or more in the gift shop.
Here's a good savings and an interesting place to visit, especially if you were a Liberace fan. The Liberace Museum is offering a 2-for-1 coupon to the museum. Tickets are normally $12.50 per person.
If you want a great view of the Strip and beyond, the observation deck on the 50th floor of the Eiffel Tower at Paris Las Vegas is the place to be, so you might as well take advantage of a coupon that will give you $2 off the admission for the ride to the top.
The Second City Comedy Club at the Flamingo is offering a 2-for-1 coupon to the very funny show that features some great improvisational comedy.
As the hot weather approaches, what could be better after walking the Strip than a waffle cone, frozen drink or sundae from Ben & Jerry's Ice Cream? They're offering a two-part coupon for these goodies. The first part is a 2 for 1 on any size waffle cone. The second part gives you $1 off any frozen drink or sundae. You can find them in the Aladdin or Casino Royals.
All of these coupons are good for at least the next few months. Who says Las Vegas doesn't have a heart?
