Re: Who's Going to Vegas 10-17-09?
On Travelocity today, the Flamingo can be had for $50 for Thursday and Sunday night, $90 on Friday and Saturday! This is a non-refundable rate - you have to add another $1.53 a nite for a refundable rate. I would call the hotel directly to see if one can get the same rates through them....

How many Buffet(t)s are too many????

Up side of going through the hotel you do not have to pay for your full stay! If you book on the website of the hotel - they are staying the best rates available. So they MAY honor the Travelocity, but I am not sure if you can get the rate without already booking.
I think my weekend rate is $70 on Fri/Sat and $45 the other days...this is with a players card and watching the website.
A friend got two free Buffett tickets for May...but she is not going...so they are trying to pull people in for sure!

Re: Who's Going to Vegas 10-17-09?
Ms Sammie and I are going to the May Vegas show. honestly, I thought that would make Ms Sammie dog happy, but she is insisting that we go to the October 17 show as well. I simply can't say no to a golden retriever with a face that gets her into a lot of trouble.
Seriously, I'm leaning towards a resounding yes on this show.
