4 ways to a Cheaper Vegas Vacation

Below is a list of our ideas and tips for a cheaper Vegas vacation!

1. Be patient and plan well in advance. Many of the hotels have early bird deals and packages. To get the most out of your buck you have to be willing to do the research, spend time online looking for the deals. A good place to start is with the hotel/casino website, many of them guarantee the lowest online prices.

2. Coupon Codes, these little babies can save you a tremendous amount of money. The hotels do not typically promote these but there are many good sites that show the codes and provide links back to the hotel, or show, and/or car rental of your choice. Many have expiration dates and sometimes they are not reliable, you may have to look around. Two sites are listed below, but there are many, look around.

3. Once in Vegas many of the hotels provide a coupon or discount booklet. Some of the hotels will only give them to people staying with them; some will give them to anyone. They are typically at the concierge desk, so walk up and ask for one. The coupons range from two for one buffets to $20 game play at the casino.

4. Use online package deals, this is my least favorite because it typically costs more to bundle than to search long and hard for the individual parts. Sometimes, however, you may not have the time to do the research; in this case it will probably be your best option. One very nice idea about this approach is that it gets done quickly.
