People who are saying their room was comped acting like they don’t still charge you resort fees lol

I stay at mgm properties when I go to Vegas and have been for the past 15 years. I’ve gotten comped resort fees in the past. It’s been a while since I’ve had that though especially in the upper tier hotels with mgm. But I’m not a baller so I’m sure some people still get the fully comped offers.

However I’m staying at the vdara, 4 comped nights, $100 resort credit, and $50 free play and it’s only costing me $200 in resort fees. That’s a hell of a deal for a hotel like the vdara on a holiday weekend on the strip.

And we have a companion pass with Southwest this year so it only cost $550 for 2 tickets. And I got the non stop flights out of Msy (booked in early December).

Unfortunately I’ll be spending some coin in other places. Cabana at mgm on Friday, helicopter tour to Grand Canyon Saturday. Got tickets through lsu so that wasn’t too bad. And my wife got us on the Hancock Whitney tailgate vip list for the tailgate at the house of blues so that was free.

Probably all in $3k not counting my bankroll for gambling.

Flights $11.20
Hotel $0
Game Ticket $469
Hoover Dam/West Rim $150ish

Food will be comped @ Landry's Inc. owned restaurants.

Southwest nonstop flights: $200
MGM Grand Hotel: $540
1 ticket in section 108: $360

Total $1,100 already spent

Food and alcohol: $400 ($100/day)
Gambling: trying to stick to $100/day, so $400
Ubers and miscellaneous: $100

Rough total estimate = $2k

Or going to Orlando for citrus bowl. I hope to never go to Orlando again.

Looks like the economy is good.
