Random trip to Vegas

I'm going to Vegas tomorrow morning. It's a no-time-to-explain-let's-go kinda trip.

Resorts are now charging $25+ resort fees per night. how do i get around this?

I have no interest in these fees.

The resort charge includes:

High-speed internet access (in the rooms and public areas).
Access to the fitness center.
Local, long distance (excluding international) and 800-number calls.
Daily newspaper.
Printing of boarding passes.
Resort fee listed includes tax.

Yup.

Gotta pay it. Fees, fees and more fees. I just went to a restaurant yesterday and they charged me $.50 to use my CC.

Can't not pay resort fees.

Stay off the strip at a Hampton or Marriot.

Sleep on the street. It's free and 80% of the time people leave you alone.

You could also pick the pawn credit house, watch their soap show few days ago in TV, entertainment priceless. Would definitely pay it a visit at next time.

Resort fees are a bitch but you cannot escape them if you want to stay in a nice place. Why go to Vegas and compromise? You will lose the resort fee in one bet at the back jack table anyway.

My theory is that there is so much to at a resort hotel besides gamble I actually save money. Unless you are the 1/100th of 1 percent that actually makes money gambling this approach would probably save you money too.
