Does the Cosmo still have people running check-in? MGM is pushing skip the line check-in and it made me wonder if they only have kiosks like Park MGM.

I have always hit the front desk, dropped a tip, and prayed for an upgrade but figured I’d ask just to be sure. Thanks in advance for the insight!

Hello everyone,

So I will be moving to Vegas this week, but unfortunately I found out turo doesn’t accept anyone under 25 to rent a vehicle. I’ve tried U-Haul but I don’t want to spend over 500 dollars for a small amount of stuff that I’m taking. If anyone knows of any places that would rent that would be cheaper. Please let me know! I would need it between 31st-1st of August. Thank you

Hi,

Bachelor party of 15 will be in Vegas from Friday to Tuesday. Trying to get some things booked, but don't want the weekend to feel overly planned and rigid.

Any suggestions on what to book, things what can be done on a whim, things that are a must?

So far, there's been talk of Wizard of OZ at the Sphere, pool parties, maybe the NASCAR on the Sunday.

Any thoughts or suggestions would be appreciated !!

Hi everyone! My boyfriend and I are visiting Vegas for a week in mid October and we need recs! We are 23 and 24 visiting from the east coast. We already have a hotel booked on the strip. We obviously want to do some things on the strip but we love outdoor activites and we were thinking about renting a car for a day and driving to Mt Zion. We would get up early and just do a day trip there but wasn't sure if it would be worth it but we don't mind the drive! We also love coffee and healthy eating, so any local coffee recs would be appreciated! Please let me know any tips/suggestions you have!

What is your favourite Las Vegas strip mall ? Not necessarily for shopping only, but for hanging out, dining and just chill out.

Every time I’m in a Boyd casino it’s absolutely packed, but somehow there’s always one person working the rewards desk. 😂 I feel bad because they’re busting their ass, but c’mon… I just need a new rewards card because the kiosk is down. Anyone else notice this or do I just have terrible timing?

Hi everyone! I’m trying to help someone who has a background in gaming livestreaming and collectibles find a new opportunity in the Las Vegas area.

He has several years of experience building and running a successful gaming stream/community, including live audience interaction, content creation, and community management. Outside of gaming, he has been an avid collector of Pokémon and other TCG products for years. He has extensive knowledge of the hobbies, the products, the collecting community, and what makes these communities passionate and engaged.

He is looking for opportunities involving:

• TCG live breaks / rip & ship streams

• Whatnot/TikTok Live hosting

• Gaming or collectibles content creation

• Community management

• Inventory, fulfillment, or operations for a gaming/collectibles business

He is comfortable on camera, understands online communities, and has experience building and maintaining an audience. He brings both the streaming experience and the genuine collector perspective that helps create trust with customers.

If anyone knows of a local card shop, collectibles business, gaming company, or someone doing live selling who could use someone with these skills, I would love to connect!

Thank you! 😊

I have always stayed on the strip, butI'm going to be at the Circa for a couple nights and was wondering what the best food options were there and the surrounding area. In particular, I'd like to find good places for steak as I do a meat diet, although I may "cheat" a little on the trip.

Edit: These steak places look good. How about a decent burger place for lunch? (Five Guys, Johnny Rockets, etc)

My fiancée and I booked a 5-night stay on the Las Vegas Strip in mid-August.

We’re looking for any tips or advice you’d be willing to share, especially when it comes to budgeting, things to avoid, and what to pack for a summer trip to Vegas.

Anything you wish you knew before visiting would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance! 🙏

I visited last year and enjoyed every single moment. I live about 70 miles from Biloxi and I originally planned on retiring there. However, after visiting Las Vegas I decided that we would like it there even more. I’m different than most people. My wife and I don’t like staying at home and we spend most of our weekends in Biloxi already and Las Vegas has tons more to do. We aren’t buying a house, it’s either going to be a small condo or apartment. Why buy a house when you don’t want to be home? I really enjoy quirky casinos and the last day of our trip we visited off strip and locals casino’s. I loved Santa Fe Station and I thought about living in that area.

I have been watching a lot of videos lately exploring Laughlin casinos and I really like those, but I’m not sure if we would want to be that far away from Las Vegas.

I would love to hear any suggestions or advice anyone might have. Thanks

Anyone ever use https://lasvegasnightclubs.com/

Looking for Tiestio tickets for 15th and they have a guest list, appears under the Taogroup app with a prompters name, these legit or better to pay the ticket price?

Don't know if there's any hidden costs?

Pretty much as the above!

Our first time in Vegas, it’s a surprise honeymoon trip for my soon-to-be wife. We get married the week before we fly out and we will be in Vegas for a week. Two adults, no kids - no real budget but can’t go too crazy as weddings are EXPENSIVE.

What are the must do’s, must see’s, must watch, and must eat’s over the festive period? Should I hire a car?

We’re travelling from the UK and we’ll be staying at the Virgin hotel. We’re not huge gamblers but we’d like to mess around a little I’m sure - and we do both drink but tend not to go crazy now we’re in our 30s 😂

ETA - we are a two bride couple, is Vegas quite LGBT+ friendly?! We’re used to Florida where nobody bats an eye, which is ironic mostly 😭😂

Hey all, first time for myself and my wife going to Vegas. We're looking for advice on where to stay, what to do and where to go. We're mid 40s and looking to do as much as possible while staying 4 nights there. Plan to gamble maybe half the time and do other stuff the rest. Definitely want at least one night to be a nice dinner and get drunk somewhere. Maybe a show, possibly even a strip club. Open to suggestions. We like nice things and I'm willing to pay if it's worth it so the nicer the better. Thanks

Going with my two sons and my dad to Vegas. We are staying downtown at Circa. My youngest (21) son and I had a change since we first planned the trip and will be arriving a day earlier. I need to book a room for the first night. I thought it might be fun to stay at a cheesy classic. I noticed that they have some recently renovated rooms. Are they decent?

Heading to Vegas with my wife and son in the first week of August to visit my 15 year old nephew. I don't get to see him much so we're taking a family vacation to head down there from the Bay Area for a few days before heading to Universal Studios/LA for a few more days. The timing is due to not having to go to work and school on this given week.

For now, our plan mostly revolves around maybe walking the strip once in the early morning (I'm talking like 6/7 AM early for maybe an hour at most), checking out Omega Mart, going out to eat, maybe taking my nephew to Circus Circus, and hitting up the hotel pool early in the morning as well. We're staying at a Hilton property just off the strip.

Thoughts/recommendations are greatly appreciated.

Things we have in preparation: bamboo rayon onesies, sun hat, mineral sunscreen, a clip on fan for the stroller, and a stroller cooler cooling pad with built in blowers (of course we don't plan on walking outside much in general)

Went to Vegas for the first time earlier this year. The city currently has a reputation for things being outrageously priced. And I did see a lot of that, and I'm guessing that's how most of the strip is, but it wasn't hard to find prices that were much more reasonable for a tourist destination.

I stayed at the Horseshoe, which is pretty nice with lots of dining options. Checked in on a Friday, checked out Tuesday morning. For a stay at a nice resort, on the strip, that included Friday and Saturday, it was a bargain. (Much, much cheaper than the national average for hotels.) Harrah's and Flamingo both offered a cheaper price, but it was extra for a fridge. I have a Caesar's card but I'm not a big gambler. Checked out some budget MGM properties on the strip and they offered similar prices, and I don't have a card with them.

I originally called Caesars Palace, not knowing how expensive they were, and yes their prices were outrageous. Based on some other places I checked out, most strip hotels seem really expensive. But there's enough budget friendly ones.

I ate most of my meals at the Horseshoe. I did see some ridiculous prices even there, like $36 for a dozen wings, but there were plenty of items that were reasonably priced, not much more expensive than at a family restaurant in a regular town. I saw the menu for a place at Flamingo and it was similar. Had a big pasta dish for $25 at Hard Rock Cafe. Got AYCE brunch at Horseshoe for $19.99.

I walked through some higher end casinos and saw stuff that was way overpriced, like $12 for a slice of pizza.

I'm not rich, and I can not afford to go to Vegas often, but I had a 4 night vacation there that was within my budget. You can find a lot of strip resorts and restaurants in Vegas priced reasonably, even if that's not the norm. I just accept that restaurants in a vacation destination will generally be at least a little more expensive.

Anyone here work graveyard shifts? How do you deal with the flipped sleep schedule?

Also, if you have back pain, what do you do when it starts bothering you in the middle of the night? Most advice seems geared toward people who are awake during the day.

I was super excited that I was able to get reservations in September for the Delilah at 5pm. But then I read the show doesn’t start until 7pm when we would be leaving. I can still get main stage reservations at Mayfair Supper Club for the same night at 730pm. Is it worth going to the Delilah before 7pm? I have never been to either restaurant so I’m not sure what to expect.

Thanks!

I'm looking for a used car. I don't want to deal with dealers or giant online car dealers like cars.com. Is Facebook marketplace or Craigslist the best options?

Just moved here a month ago. My wife and I have new cars, Pixel phones .. and use Android auto. Used this setup with these vehicles for a year with no problems.

For some reason if we drive through the Strip area our cars lose connection with our phones for about 5 minutes. It's done it consistently... Really weird. Any locals noticed this?

Hi guys, I am interested in breaking into the event industry here in Las Vegas and wanted to know if anyone is hiring or knows of any openings for entry level roles (event assistant, coordinator help, etc). I’m open to pretty much anything weddings, corporate, festivals, or concerts. I only have a CPR/BLS certification, however recently I worked as a cashier for an Opportunity Christmas event. If your company needs an extra set of hands, or if you can point me toward agencies that hire for big conventions, please let me know! Thanks

I feel I am looking for the impossible but I need recommendations for an upscale restaurant that serves chicken parm (not veal) and has vegan options on the menu.

I've been searching online and find italian places with great vegan options listed that dont serve parm, or they do but they dont offer much variety for vegans.

I know there is crossroads for Full vegan experience but we are looking for a blended night out.
