I just came back from Vegas and guess what????? You don't have to spend and arm and a leg.
Here are few tips for next year:
Use a shuttle service instead of a taxi from the airport. A taxi can get stuck in traffic and run up to $10-$20 plus tip for a hotel on the strip. Some shuttles are $4.25 for a ride to a strip hotel.
To get some munchies just take the tram from the Mandalay Bay to the Excalibur. Walk a couple blocks up the strip to the CVS or Walgreens. Buy Water, Juice, Breakfast bars, snacks, etc. I never ate breakfast out. I always just ate a couple of breakfast bars with some juice then headed out.
Eat at the the Luxor's McDonalds (Thanks Grinder. I would have never known it was there if not for your post). Their prices are not inflated. I could get a large drink with a meal and then a free re-fill which I would take back to my room all for about $3.
Knowing Vegas a little better I can really save some money next year.
BTW!!! I had a GREAT time at InterNext and made a couple of deals that easily paid for my trip, plus I made some great friends and contacts that will help me in my business. I would suggest that any webmaster do whatever it takes to go to the next one even if you have to save a few bucks by eating breakfast bars in your room. So for all of you that told me to stay home... GO FUCK YOURSELF
