Matt Goss Merchandise Is Taking Over Caesars

Where: 3570 Las Vegas Blvd South [map], 89109
March 8, 2010 at 12:00 PM | by juliab | 0 Comments

T-4 days to the glorious Goss debut, and as well as the tarting up of Cleo’s Barge that’s finally got underway, the other big news is that the merch has arrived.

When we asked before at the shop nearest the Barge when the Goss guff would be arriving, we were they wouldn’t be stocking it till 12 March itself. But on Thursday, we found ourselves walking by a mannequin with “dirty” emblazoned across its bosom, and we had an inkling that if we looked round the back we would see “virgin”.

And we were right. There’s a whole load of t-shirts – taking up two whole segments of the shop (like half the front wall). In fact there’s pretty much one for every day of the week.

Indulge Your Cardsnapper Fantasies At Miracle Mile

Ever wondered what the life of a cardsnapper’s like? (It’s ok, we have too.) Well now you can – kind of.

These t-shirts from Città delle Luci in Miracle Mile tickled us. They’re the right color, the right lettering, and possibly even the right phone number (we aint calling to find out).

Yours for only $16.99 (make that a “$17 special”). The folks back home will love it (maybe).

Print Out Your Photos at These Kodak Kiosks

Remember the old days when cameras required film and you had to wait at least a week to get your vacation pictures back from the developer? Then remember when one-hour photo processing was introduced and we thought nothing could be better? Yeah, that was a long time ago.

Now that everything's gone digital, everyone is printing out their own pictures--whether it be on specialty photo printers at home or by doing it in-person at the drugstore. And guess what? You can even do it in the Wynn Las Vegas..

We spied this nifty little photo kiosk on the Esplanade near the shoe shops and the Pizza Place. There's also another one located in the Bellagio too. Simply plug in your camera, memory stick, USB card or even CD and the kiosk will print out your picture right there.

The pricing options vary depending on what kind of print you want and how many but typically, a single photo print-out costs about 30 cents. But we wouldn't be surprised if there were Vegas-esque prices here for your print-outs.

Douchebag Frames Pick Vegas Douchebag To Hate On

December 14, 2009 at 4:29 PM | by juliab | 2 Comments

There’s nothing like a little light stereotyping is there? Brits are stuck up. Americans are stupid. And Vegas may as well be a synonym for “dickhead”, “ballbag”, “wanker”, “shit for brains”, “twat” and our current favorite, “ass-clown” (as well as some naughtier ones we weren’t sure we could upload on t’internet).

Who are these Vegas haters? Why, they’re the people behind Douchebag Frames, who sell photo frames enabling you to immortalize the people you hate. Or “name, shame and douchebag frame” them, as they so neatly put it, for just $20 (or £11 to UK people via Popbitch).

Five Oversized Souvenir Drinks to Try (Responsibly) in Vegas

July 10, 2009 at 4:06 PM | by jaymi | 0 Comments

Nothing says, "It's My First time in Vegas!" like a plastic souvenir cup. But of course, this being Vegas, a standard plastic cup with a hotel logo slapped on it just won't do. Your Vegas souvenir cup needs to be huge, so huge that people will doubt you can finish it without getting alcohol poisoning.

If people aren't staring at you when you walk down the Strip with this drink in hand (or slung around your neck for support), then you haven't found the right souvenir drink.

Fortunately, VegasChatter is here to guide you through the options. Looking to advertise your Vegas virginity with one of these oversized drinks? Or just trying to show off how much alcohol you can consume in 10 hours or less? Here’s our list of places to snag an oversized souvenir drink.

Just remember, one is probably enough. These things are loaded with alcohol due to their size but we've also heard rumors that vendors use Everclear as a way to save some money. (Around the world, folks are smacking their heads and saying, "That's why I blacked out after that drink....")

'World’s Largest Gift Store' More Than Fuzzy Dice and Shot Glasses

Where: 2440 Las Vegas Boulevard South [map], 89104
March 16, 2009 at 9:44 PM | by Erika Pope | 0 Comments

At the intersection of Las Vegas Boulevard and Sahara Avenue, you will find not only the city’s most dangerous traffic pattern (if you’re headed east-west, that is), Ivana Trump’s lipstick-colored sales office for her now-abandoned high-rise condo project, a lot that’s been vacant for decades and the Sahara Hotel but you will also find the wildly popular Bonanza Souvenir and Gift Shops.

Occupying an L-shaped strip mall, Bonanza truly does appear to outsize the souvenir emporiums found in destinations with similar inclinations toward kitsch (Myrtle Beach, Atlantic City). Its changeable marquee-covered exterior doesn’t appear to have been updated since it opened in 1980, beckoning the masses with pronouncements like “TOON TOWN” and “MOCASSINS.”
