We survived Las Vegas for 3 days 2 nights!! This is our 'free' trip. What a big LOL. Nevertheless, it really felt like a vacation. We stayed @ Plaza Hotel & Casino in Main St where Freemont Street Experience starts so it's quite perfect when you don't want to be bored in your hotel room.
This is our second 'free' trip - first one was in Catalina Island.
January 2 - Sent the certificate Casa Blanca Express
January 18 - Talked to Linda and chose the dates for Big Bear + sent by mail $30 for taxes
February 4 - Called to change from Big Bear to Las Vegas trip
February 11 - Confirmed dates for Vegas and received email

Stories and reviews for attractions above will be in a separate post (and the vlog too) as I don't want this to be too crowded as it focuses on the money part for this trip. Need an itinerary? Click here.
I hope this helps anyone a thing or two!

Tips for trips like this:
- Bring your own water!! (for hangovers - we didn't have some btw) We brought about 6 tumblers with all waters and it was enough.
- Got us some chips, fruits, or whatever to munch on for the road.
- Bring a ponytail and a brush - I forgot these so my hair was down all the time despite the heat with my hands used as a comb.
- We saved about $80 for the 2 nights in the hotel. Free is free. If you don't want the hassle of calling and following up for this opportunity, just pay for it.
- Bring your own travel size shampoo, conditioner, soap, you name it. You'll never know if the hotel you're staying at has it.
I hope this helps anyone a thing or two!
