And I prefer going to Vegas in May as it's nice.. Not as hot as in june/july... We were actually able to walk around the strip without problems with heat as breeze blows by here and there.

Palazzo Resort | Is that flying from Bellingham? I think most vegas deals nowadays are cheaper as most of these big hotels usually cost a lot more.

Also should check out a shooting range down there where you can rent fully automatic SMGs and assault rifles.

It isn't cheap, but the instructors are really good and you have a really good variety of guns to shoot off. It was my first time so I went for the 9mm, but next time I'm going to step it up for an automatic.

okay i read a little bit of the thread and heres a tip
if you are a girl, if you dress up, you are going to get in for free, no line no cover..... i have never seen a girl pay ever in vegas
for guys, if you want to have fun, get a table, split it between your friends, it ends up being 200-300 per night if you don't go overboard. i think most people can agree with me, in vegas, no table = no fun.
if you just want to check the club out, just get the free pass from the concierge(sp?) desk at the hotel. it's free, just ask
if you plan to go to a certain club i.e. pure, stay at the Caesars... but if you don't
get a table, you'll just end up walking around and leaving cause it sucks without a table
for stripclubs, i have never paid for the cab ride there nor the cover to get into a strip club
you can make a deal with the cabs to have them drive you there for free and pay your cover because they get 50 bucks every person they bring into the stripclub
you can also phone ahead and have the stripclub send you a limo and give you a ride there and free cover, however you have to tip the limo driver though
ie spearmint rhino = 7027963600 (must be picked up from a casino hotel)
happy hour is 12 to 8, 3 dollar highballs and special shots
imho best time to go is 4-6 and stay till 8, the ratio between the strippers is going to be 3:1
new ladies start working at 3 and 6 and 9, usually they still till 3-5am
6am is when the uglier ladies start working (thats when everyone starts going home :P)
you're going to lose all your money when you come out 
when you leave certain strip clubs i.e. rics (which sucks imho) you can have a limo driver drive you back to your hotel, just pay tips
if you decide to get a taxi watch the pay meter, twice i've had taxi drivers try to shut off the meter and tell me an ridiculous price because they would be thinking i wasn't paying attention
HTH

OG is good if you like the girls really NASTY. Not nasty as in nasty looking but if you go into the vip room you will know what i mean
downstairs is a male strip club and upstairs is a female strip club
you can get free ride and cover to OG from the taxi's but what they don't tell you is they make you buy a 25 dollar drink voucher at the door to get in. as well as the private dances in the vip, they make you buy drinks in there, each drink is 20 dollars (only in the vip room)
i would have to say og is my second favorite strip club, spearmint rhinos is the best

Didn't have an idea it was that much. Oh Pure sucks by the way so unless you get a free pass or your just dieing to go forget about it. Personally I think Tao blows it out of the water especially if Tao Beach is open on the night you go.

# Non-residents: $30
# Locals (driving themselves): Free
# Guests arriving by limo or taxi: $30
so it is free if you are a local ?
and a limo is 30 bucks
