Can't say I'm shocked. Vegas is now feeling the pinch. Not only that, when I was in Vegas last year, I walked thru th Mirage and it lost the new and "neat" look at use to have. It didn't seem well maintained.
Now is a great time to get Vegas deals. I'm always getting e-mails, flights/rooms are very reasonable. However, even still, you need money to gamble, and that can be expensive.
