Save Money in Las Vegas During Your Birthday Month
Las Vegas remains one of the best places for cheap hotels, food, and entertainment. Visit Las Vegas during your birthday month for even more value. As usual, I’ll be going to Las Vegas for my birthday month. Arriving in late August – checking in on a Sunday and leaving on a Friday – I’ll be […]
Vegas News | Almost Fertitta Time, What’s Up With Bally’s and Ping Pang Pong Gets Props
The big Vegas News from the past couple of weeks is probably Caesars Rewards introducing a new highest tier, Olympus. Hurdy Gurdy Justin broke it down last week. Caesars had my go-to properties when I lived on the East Coast because they took care of me in Atlantic City. I had a great host at […]

Vegas News | Oh No Oyo, Icahn Fail, 3:2 Poolside Blackjack and Much More
This was a wild week in Las Vegas, from a free play promotion that went exactly how we all expected to a hotel catfishing customers. At least I got to have some tasty eggslut without waiting in a huge line! Since we publish Vegas News every two weeks, there’s some older info to share. This […]
Save Money on Rideshare in Las Vegas With Credit Card Benefits
Credit cards offer many ways to save on rideshare in Las Vegas (and many other locations). Here’s how I save money on rideshare. I often see online discussions about the cost of taxi rides, limos, and other transportation options in Las Vegas. With so many ways to save money using Lyft and Uber, I stick […]
Vegas News | More Bellagio Villas, A Possible Caesars Arena, What’s Up With The A’s and Bally’s, and Master Kim’s Wagyu House is Delicious!
Caesars reported earnings this week. There was no call because the company might go private. Yadda yadda. See the money info here. Caesars did make the news when landlord VICI said it was working with Caesars on possibly building an NBA arena behind Horseshoe. They’ve both been looking for ways to monetize this land for […]
Vegas News | What’s Up With Caesars, Bally’s, the Stadium and all Those Hidden Discounts?!
Caesars had until last weekend to accept a new deal to replace Fertitta’s offer to take the company private. There’s usually an announcement or/and a legal filing to say the deal is going forward. The date passed with no announcement by Caesars, Fertitta or anyone else. It’s definitely a little weird and there’s been chatter […]
Las Vegas Monorail: Maps and Prices for 2026
You might think about Uber/Lyft and taxis when you think of getting around Sin City. But a sometimes forgotten option is the monorail, or as I should say: monorails. In total there are 3 monorails remaining (RIP Mirage Monorail). First, the major one. The Las Vegas Monorail offers an affordable solution to navigating the bustling […]
Vegas News | Celebrating America 250, Diving Deeper Into Bally’s Plans and Station Casinos Turns 50!
I understand why businesses don’t like to make news heading into a long holiday weekend, but I don’t like it. This was barely a thing when I was younger, and it’s seemingly grown every year as the news cycle gets shorter. If a company shares anything it wants people to be aware of 48 hours […]
Las Vegas Casinos Spend How Much On Comps?
In Vegas News a couple of weeks ago, I shared some information from the 2025 Nevada Gaming Abstract report, which provides a look inside the accounting of every casino in the state. Income, expenses, and revenue are broken down by region, similar to the monthly reports. However, there’s much more information available in this report. […]
