I've lived in Las Vegas for almost 20 years. Tourists should stop wasting money on these 5 things.
As a local living in Las Vegas, Nevada, I know the city gets expensive. Here are ways to save money, plus things I think visitors waste money on.
Having lived in Las Vegas for nearly two decades, journalist Jena Brown warns tourists about five money-draining activities to avoid while visiting the city. ATM fees on the Strip can be steep, so travelers should seek out lower-cost ATMs off the Strip. Prices for drinks and bars near the casino lobby often exceed those located farther back, so shoppers should compare options.
Tickets for popular shows are frequently cheaper if purchased on the day of the event or from day-of kiosks, rather than buying in advance at pricier kiosks or websites. Toiletries, clothing, and other essentials are typically more expensive in the casinos, so guests should bring their own supplies and be cautious when shopping.
Lastly, parking fees in casino garages can quickly accumulate, so tourists should research their parking options and consider alternative transportation methods to avoid unnecessary expenses.
