VEGAS HOTEL DEALS FOR JCK07
January 31, 2007
Most all of us will be attending the JCK Show in Las Vegas this June. My parents, husband, and I will be there for a whopping 8 nights! Of course, hotels, food, gambling, and fun is not cheap in Vegas. I’ve been penny-pinching because of the new store and just purchased my ticket along with my husband's and now I’ve been on a rampage searching for deals on hotels. We’re going to be out all day but want to come home to a comfy room. I’m not on my folk’s payroll anymore so I can’t be like them or the other "richies.” So if you’re like me hunting for a good deal and of course a nice hotel like Paris, Mandalay Bay, MGM Grand, New York-New York, Monte Carlo, Caesar’s and a bunch more I’m sure I left out. Here are the sites to look at Fatwallet and Slickdeals.
I know JCK has a PDF File with hotel rates which you can access here but I find the rates here to be much more expensive. For example, Luxor is $142 a night but with the first promo code, PMBQ10, Luxor is $79.99 a night or MGM Grand which is $172 on the PDF and $109 with the promo. Before you go crazy with the promo codes…here are the show dates:
Luxury/Premiere May28-31
Couture Show May30-June4
Educational Classes May30-31
JCK June 1-5
Let me explain to you how these sites work (If you can't understand these steps skip down to the exact site and promo code I used).
- Click on the particular site above.
- Click on the forums tab.
- You will usually see sections like travel, finance, free stuff. Click on the more button in the travel Section. (Fatwallet is my favorite)
- You will then be brought to all the forums. Basically, these people are deal and bargain-hunting phenes. They list promotional codes they’ve found or received from coupons, or gaming and so forth.
- When you get to the forums section go to the search button and type something similar to Vegas hotel deals or hotels in Vegas, hot hotel deals in Vegas in June, OR Click the title of the forum that is of interest to you.
- You will then see a list of hotels, a link to the site, the promotional code to type when you get the site and the month the promotional codes are valid. DO try them even if they are not valid anymore because a couple I used said they were only valid thru April of this year but worked when I typed them in.
- Click the link they have there for the hotel you chose.
- The link will redirect you to a site, usually the main site for the hotel you chose.
- Type the promotional code you saw on Fatwallet or Slickdea and voila!
If you’re having trouble here is a great promo code that I’ve been using for various hotels:
The Vegas travel link to a forum on Fatwallet (click here) or for the direct link to unbelievable hotel rates (click here) for Luxor, Mandalay Bay, The Hotel, Bellagio, MGM Grand, Treasure Island, Monte Carlo, Excalibur, and more (the site only says Mandalay Bay but once you enter the promo code it lists many hotels…so don’t worry):
- Click the Start Over Button
- Select the month and number of nights.
- Enter the Promo Code PMBQ10
- DO NOT CLICK GO AFTER YOU ENTER THE PROMO CODE. CLICK SEARCH AVAILABILITY. If you hit go, it will say promotional code expired.
WARNING: These deals go fast…usually in a day or two because I’ve been checking everyday for a week. If you have trouble shoot me an email at shanu@gulianis.com.
Stay tuned next week for updates on promo codes and deals that I’ve found.
