Secrets from Las Vegas Locals: Best Discounts and Free Stuff in Vegas

Ranked #4,265 in Travel & Places, #126,631 overall

Las Vegas Promo Codes, Discounts and Free Stuff for Hotel, Dining, and More!

I've been a Las Vegas local for several years now, and while I love to hang out on the Strip, I refuse to pay the high prices being charged to tourists. There are a lot of great discounts to be had in Vegas if you know where to find them.
I created this lens because I'm tired of seeing Las Vegas "deal" websites that don't offer true deals at all -- just links to affiliate hotel and show sites.
The freebies on this lens are NOT for my commercial gain. I personally have redeemed many of the offers that I post. My aim is only to share the best deals with you since no one should have to pay the outrageous prices they charge on the Strip!

Promo for Unlimited City-Wide Buffet Dining

Looking for a REALLY great dining deal in Las Vegas? Seven of the most popular casinos in Vegas are participating in the "Buffet of Buffets" promotion; for one low price of $39.99, you'll get all day access to seven of the best buffets in the city. A hotel room and buffet package is also available from only $46 per night: Promo Code for Harrah's Buffet of Buffets
PS- Yes, this promotion does give you access to the world famous Rio Carnival buffet.

Free Gourmet Dinner and Drinks for Ladies at Tao and Lavo

I know, it sounds to good to be true. Here's how to score a free dinner at the hottest joints at the Venetian and Palazzo.

Image by Daniel St. Pierre at FreeDigitalPhotos.net Website: http://www.freedigitalphotos.net/images/view_photog.php?photogid=691Note: This freebie can only be redeemed if your party consists of an attractive, all-female group

Tao, the hottest restaurant/nightclub at the Venetian, and Lavo, the restaurant/nightclub at the Palazzo, both offer free dinner and drinks to groups of young ladies. If that wasn't enough, the group will get walked into the club after dinner in order to bypass the line and the cover charge.
Last time I checked, Tao offered this dinner only on Thursdays (you get an unbelievable sushi assortment) and Lavo on Sundays (with Italian fare).
In order to book this unadvertised freebie, you have to contact a club promoter for Tao or Lavo. They'll arrange everything for you.
The only catch? This dinner offer is so popular that the club is often dominated by women on the nights that they offer it. So ladies, don't go to Tao on Thursdays expecting to meet many men!

Complimentary Drinks for Non-Gamblers

Attend one of Vegas's free open bar events!

TIP: a snorkel does NOT help you drink faster...Want to drink at a hot Vegas bar or lounge for free? It can be done! Every weeknight, an organization called Spy On Vegas hosts an "open bar" somewhere on or near the Strip. The only catch is that the open bar only offers drinks made from whatever brand of alcohol is being promoted that night. But the drinks are truly free and there's always a great crowd there to party with!

    Excellent tips. Free drinks are very useful. It is funny. Beer is cheaper than water in vegas. Visit las vegas hotels comparison for rates, reviews, and info comparison from various website in one website.

Fun and Cheap Alternative to Hotel + Rental Car Packages

If you are planning on doing a lot of off-strip sightseeing on your Vegas trip, considering an RV Rental. It's inexpensive, and you can take the RV to great nearby destinations such as Death Valley, Zion National Park, Laughlin, and the Grand Canyon.
Many companies, including Bates International, are offering some great Fall deals this year since they are coming out of their peak summer season.
