Rio Is Spoiling Us Now With $45 Rates For Twitter Followers Till June
How naughty is the Rio? We thought its $50 room deal was good enough, but turns out they’ve been hiding something from us: $45 rooms, available till the end of June (the $50 ones run out next month).
The Insider Rates deal is only open to their Twitter followers (they flagged it up yesterday) and has some weekday rooms available for $45, and weekends for $60. The weekend deal isn’t so great – there are a couple of $75s in there but the first $60 deal is for May 7 – but there are puhlenty of $45s going, even on a Thursday night.

The Rio Has Rooms For $50 Until the End of April
It feels like only yesterday that we were praising the Rio’s 20th anniversary deal of rooms for $20pp. We thought that would be a fluke rate, but in fact, they’re also running a $50 room rate deal at the moment, as they flagged up on Twitter yesterday.

The Tropicana Is Shifting Rooms For As Low As $28
A brand new room for $65? Not bad
The Tropicana is changing and it wants you to know about it. Not content with doing a multi-million dollar upgrade on its Paradise Tower and ditching Dirk Arthur, it’s just dropped its room rates to a superlow starting price of $28 and bunged in a free upgrade as well.
ravelzoo brought this to our attention: between 7-10 March (yes, book quick) and 3-7 April you can bag a double room for $28. And on March 11, 22-24, 28-31, and April 8, 18-22 and 24-29, they’ll cost you $35.

New York New York's Text Offers Are A Mixed Bunch
After stuffing our faces for $5.99 thanks to the Rio’s special text offers, we thought we’d try out some more to see how they performed. First in our sights: New York New York.
First off: this is a slow burner – we signed up on February 11 and we were still getting texts last week. The good thing is that the offers don’t have expiration dates – at least, they don’t mention them on the texts (see below) - so you can get going before your arrival in Vegas and sift through them once you’ve got there.
Again, they’re a mixed bunch. First up, we got a two-for-one deal for the roller coaster, but it was only valid with a room key (so no good for us) and between 11am and noon – bit too specific for our liking, even if we’d been staying there.

How Does Caesars' Matt Goss Package Stand Up?
No sniggering at the headline either, please
It’s T-11 days now to the glorious Goss debut. Excited? We are. So much so that our hands trembled this morning as we opened the first window on our Goss-advent calendar. (Kidding. Kinda.)
Guess who else is excited? Caesars. So much so that they’ve refurbed Cleopatra’s Barge finally got round to launching their Matt Goss package. The Gossmeister told us this was planned in January, and we’ve been hounding them for details ever since. And on Friday, they finally released it. Progress!

How We Scored a $200 Room at Caesars for $88 This Weekend
We’ve said before how much we love blind booking site Hotwire, but when something’s as good as this, you can’t say it enough. So here’s our latest success story.
This past weekend, we had a friend staying and since we were bored of never being able to drink and drive, we thought we’d go halves and get a room on the Strip for one night. We plumped for Sunday, to get as good a deal as possible, and hit up Hotwire.
We were thinking of trying for something along Flamingo/Paris/Ballys lines, but what did we see? A 4.5 star hotel on the Central Strip was coming up as $72. Yes, $72. And cross-referencing what it offered on Betterbidding.com, we were 90 per cent sure it was Caesars Palace.

Is it Worth Signing Up For Rio's Text Offers?
We were perusing the Harrah’s blog the other day when we came across this post about the text offers the Rio is doing at the moment. Seeing as the last time we wrote about the Rio we were on a bit of a downer, we thought we’d give it a chance to rehabilitate itself. Were these text offers as good as the folk at Harrah’s said they were?
So we texted “Rio” to 227466 as we were told to, and the offers started rolling in. Over three days, we got seven offers sent our way.

If You're Not Katie Price, You Should Probably Think About Hotwire
Wonder if they put that message up in honor of Jordan?
We were a bit disturbed this morning when we read that Katie Price and Alex Reid were shacked up in a $10000 a night penthouse down at Planet Hollywood. On a Tuesday night? Were they being fleeced?
Later on we were relieved when the fine Norm Clarke tweeted that their honeymoon suite was a wedding present from PH top dogRobert Earl. We wouldn’t have liked to have think of our Jordan being taken advantage of.

Trump Drops To $99 a Night With New Offer

The non-gaming, non-exciting Trump Las Vegas may not be one of our favorite places in Las Vegas but you can't deny that they consistently have great rates and deals for their all-suite accommodations.
The newest "Golden Getaway" offer (a nod to the hotel's golden exterior) is available from now through March 30 and offers two nights starting at $99 a night with a $50 hotel credit and a 4pm late check out. The credit can be used at the DJT restaurant or the hotel's spa and should take away the sting of the $15 resort fee. The offer is also throwing in two for one tickets to Mystère up the street at Treasure Island for just $79.
To book, call (866) 471-0438 and mention “Golden Getaway” or visit www.trumplasvegashotel.com and enter code 50HOTL. There is a two-night minimum and just so you know, Mystère is dark on Thursdays and Fridays.

Room Rates Looking (Gasp!) Do-Able for Super Bowl Weekend
Pass out here at Encore for only $274 a night.
Next weekend is Super Bowl and we thought the rates at the hotels in Vegas would be going up, up, up. But they are actually looking pretty--dare we say it?--normal. MGM Grand rooms are at $150, Flamingo Las Vegas is at $109 a night and the Venetian and The Palazzo are holding steady at $209 a night (don't forget the $15 resort fee.)
Caesars Palace, however, is upwards of $330 a night but Wynn and Encore are just $279 and $274 a night, respectively.
We were on the hunt for five-star digs for less so we turned to Hotwire last weekend. We were able to nab a suite-sized room for $144. We aren't allowed to divulge where we're staying but we say give Hotwire a whirl if you want to go lower than what the regular booking sites are giving you. (Just remember these tips.)

Cheapskates, Rejoice: Groupons Have Arrived In Vegas
Perfect - Groupon obviously heard it’s our birthday next month
It’s been four months since we first stumbled on Groupon – a website which offers daily deals on things like food, drink and the odd pole dancing class at huge discounts. Back then, it hadn’t yet launched in Vegas, and, not being the kind of people to drop full price on a pole sesh, we’ve been waiting ever since.
Finally, on Monday, the wait was over, and we quickly snapped up a $75 voucher to eat at Andre’s in the Monte Carlo. For $30.
