Other than that, I don't know what's cheap in Vegas. Sleeping is free (except for the cost of the room)

Big Shot - Shoots passengers straight up 160 feet at 45 mph (over 4 Gs) until they are 1,081 feet above the Strip.
X-Scream - A giant teeter-totter that propels you 27 feet over the edge of the Tower, 866 feet above the ground.
Insanity, the Ride - A massive mechanical arm extends 64 feet over the edge of the Tower and spins you at a force of 3 Gs for a truly mind-bending experience.

The development is called CityCenter, consisting of condos, plus retail and entertainment, and of course a hotel/casino. The casino will be called Aria. Looks like parts of this project (including Aria) are scheduled to open in December 2009. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CityCenter

Just came back from Vegas....had a crazy trip.
Tao on Thurs Night - Lined up for no longer than 5 mins since we were hotel guests. Got there around 11pm. Club was jam packed (both rooms). It was impossible to even walk through the dance floor. Still bumping though
Lavo on Fri Night - Did bottle service. Club was pretty small compared to Tao. It was still packed of course. I had fun there but I wouldn't go back to Lavo again. Just one of those clubs you should try once.
Rhinos on Fri Night - The club was too packed to even get a normal place to sit and get a regular dance. Chicks were only doing VIP dances when I got there. So I hung out for a couple drinks and left. Ohh well, been to Rhinos many times before already lol.
XS on Sat Night - Did bottle service. Our table was outside but it was kind of small for our party of 9 + the random girls. Amazing club. It was definitely one of the best looking clubs I've seen. Dance floor was packed. Most of us just partied outside around the pool and our table. Would go back there for sure.
Tao Beach Fri & Sat afternoon - Sat was definitely more busy and happening. More girls there on Sat than Fri. Good times there, that's why I went twice lol. I recommend checking it out.
Yes, I barely left Venetian/Palazzo area LOL. Now suffering from Vegas withdrawal and not looking foward to seeing my bill haha. Seems like a lot of girls go there Fri - Mon, at least that's what I got from all the girls I talked to. So something to consider for all you guys. I wanted to check our Rehab but our flight out was at 2pm
