Nathan Burton

Nathan Burton the subject of two of my blog post has auditioned for America's Got Talent for the second time. AGT 2009 They will see him in Las Vegas! He is already there. If he should win it all I am sure that he would get a BIG production show but it would be a loss for the frugal vacationer because with big production shows come BIG $$$ fees. Good Luck Nathan Burton! He is good enough to go all the way.

Las Vegas continues to be "on sale" in regards to room prices. We generally get most of our rooms heavily discounted or comped (free), the last two trips were ALL free. Here is another site for the frugal Vegas visitor Earlyvegas.com, this is the link to the page with discount codes. We make a Vegas trip at least once a year so its easier to earn room comps. If you are an occasional visitor this page has current discount codes to get the best price for the paying visitor.

Fitzgeralds (downtown) 2007 - 2nd trip that year

Won a trip to Las Vegas and the sponsor put us up in the Fitz. We won a trip to Las Vegas Bikefest a downtown event. For an old casino the room was ok, beds weren't great but it was clean. My biggest complaint was the elevators. They don't have service elevators so everyone rode the same ones. Must have been some broken because it would take forever to get one. I believe we waited almost 10 minutes for one and by the time it came it was so full noone else could board. We started using the stairs.
