    I used to visit Vegas pretty frequently and if you played your cards right (pun intended) you could make a fairly inexpensive vacation out of it. Nothing super exciting.
    I finished reading a lot of books lounging by pools at various hotels, eating and drinking a bit more than I normally would. Avoiding the tourist traps and just relaxing.

    Nowadays the casinos don't want to comp anything and the prices they charge are outrageous.
    Last time my wife and I went, which was a few years ago, I went to the pool bar and ordered two drinks. Nothing fancy. When the cashier told me the bill was $60, I was blown away. $30 a piece. A complete rip off. It's gotten to where a lot of places pull that kind of shit anymore.

    There are way better and cheaper places to visit than that glittering desert shithole.

    I used to go there for business trips and I remember being floored that the hotel Starbucks was charging $11 for a small latte

      Was at a resort a few years back and they pulled the same shit. Paid for the one round, but what would have been multiple days of day drinking and spending there turned into us finding a pool, but then going to the local bar instead. People there were great, exchanged stories, and spent probably a quarter of what we would have at the pool.

      If they had even just charged half of what they were we probably would have stayed and they would have made a few hundred off of us on drinks alone, but they got so greedy they lost out on everything else.

        There were only two major groups I saw in Vegas last year. Elderly middle class people who still have wealth to not pass on (doesn't seem like near as many of them these days) and the Upper Class where $300 candles are just a thing you throw on your kid's nightstand.

          Hands down, the oddest thing to display inside a trenchcoat, NGL. Hats off for originality, though.

          Curious: how do you keep them fresh, anyhow?

          You do keep them fresh, right?

                I enjoy Vegas to some extent, but it isn't worth the cost now. I can go on an international trip or to a classier city that isn't in an ever heating desert.

                Gambling and shows are fun for a few days, but if I'm dropping thousands, I want to have real experiences, not some amusement park nonsense.

                    Thats interesting, most chain restaurants in Germany have the same prices in all locations. Not 100% sure if an airport burger kind would have the same prices as everywhere else, but it wouldn't be much more.

                      Americans can't afford Vegas, and foreigners who could won't go until Trump and his GeStaPo is history.

                        And the chips are one hundred percent on board with it. Wait until Vegas cops learn who really pays their bloated ass salaries and lawsuits.

                          You can have a real experience without dropping thousands by playing Russian roulette.

                          Don't, though!

                                Gambling is also widespread enough now if that's why you were going to Vegas, you don't have to anymore. Even in NC we have a pretty sizable casino in Cherokee. And the shows in Vegas seem to really just be the same shit you could see in other big cities, or at least something equivalent.

                                        He wasn’t satisfied with just bankrupting his own casino. He’s a mission to bankrupt every other casino, too.

                                          Yep the guy who bankrupted multiple casinos is running the country now. The economy is gonna crash hard. You'll be wishing for the 2008 financial crisis.
