I think there's still a coupon code for Von's for free delivery for orders over $50.

Liquor and beer prices aren't too bad. And you can also get water, gatorade and snacks delivered to your hotel.

From the Von's website:

*Use Promo Code: EASY7 at checkout for free delivery on your first order
 
Anyone ever try getting a complimentary upgrade on a room just by asking? And if they did, slipping them the $20 after instead of doing a sandwich before asking.
I've done it several times. It's more likely you won't get anything more than a upgrade to a view/higher floor room, but if you get the right person, that $20 goes a long way.

When I try the $20 sandwich and they just give my a higher floor, I ask for the money back, cuz they really didn't do **** for me, acting like they pulled some strings... 

Even with a low success rate, I try it everytime though..
 
Yeah, i think usually open table only has a certain number of slots, but if you call in, they might be able to take care of you.. just a thought

I learned a couple years that you need to speak directly with the restaurant if you want every option available. Open Table is very limited, and the number listed for STK is actually the hotel concierge, and they only have access to what's on Open Table. Call early during business hours and request to be transferred to the restaurant. Then speak with a host/hostess.

Try that.

Yeah I'll try that.

Also tried Botero but they don't do reservations that large. Will call both.

Did you book directly with the hotel?

You can call in and ask to have it adjusted.

If your original booking is refundable, just cancel and rebook with the cheaper rate. Make sure it's fully refundable.

Also, what hotel?

All hotels will match it, if not give you something slightly lower. Cosmo gives you 25% off the lower price (well, Marriott does, but they run the place).

Also, if you end up canceling and rebooking, check around other sites and look for some coupons codes. 

With MGM Group's Best Rate Guarantee, if you find a cheaper rate within 24 hours, theyll take off another 10%.

It's tough to find a cheaper rate or coupon codes that work for bigger hotel groups like Marriott, Total Rewards, and MGM, but you never know. 

I had a wraparound terrace suite set up for the Cosmo for about $850 for 2 weekend nights, but ended up not going.

With Marriott you can get lucky at Cosmo. Cosmo was recently running their summer rate promotion (book three nights for a certain percentage off). If you booked on Marriott (which didn't have the deal) and showed them the Cosmo offer, they would match it and give the extra 25% off. The days of the Cosmo deals are pretty much over though. They caught wind of it pretty quick. But every once in awhile something slips through. I once got a City Room for like $75/night.
 
This one site used to have a deal where if u could beat their rate, they gave u the room free. Used to get free nights at Venetian lol.

Yeah I don't see the purpose in paying just ask politely. I have never had any issues. Most of the time they will not take your money and say it's ok n upgrade if available.
 
Yeah I usually say it's my boys bachelor party no matter who/ where I'm at and get the hookup. Last time they sent a fridge, nicer room and bottle of champagne up.

Asking for it back :lol:
 
I still haven't found any closed circuit tickets yet... You think I'll have any luck finding some out there Friday? 

Not sure if it's been asked but any movie theaters showing the fight? I know there are some in Cali that do boxing events. Checked Fandango but nothing popped up yet in Vegas just a thought.
 
You deff gotta off the strip for bottles for the room. Not having car kinda sucks for that first few bourse tryna father in room essentials but after that car jus gonna sit.

And for anyone that's out there this weekend make sure Yall take pics and I want stories next week!!

I got stories from this past weekend so I know this coming up weekend will bring the heat

If you don't have them now, your best bet is to stand outside the doors day of and see who's selling.
