    I'll need to do something to make some money. Man, looking through the credit card statement, I appear to have spent more than my budget. That town got expensive! Even a medium coffee at Dunkin was $5.30 CAD after conversion, and I wasn't only drinking coffees.

    My credit card recorded no transactions at that establishment, or others which (I've heard) are similar.

    They're certainly big, but I don't know if they are the BEST I've tasted.

    My trip in April was double the spending money all previous trips were, prices went crazy.

    I mean, you can say all you want about controlling yourself at the club, the bar, or the tables, but when even Dunkin' is charging double what normal cities charge, you know you can't avoid it.
    Room deals are also not what they once were. I think most hotels are half-staffed and half-full so they are happy to leave a room empty for a night rather than sell it for cheap. That's my take on the situation. Most restaurants look to be the same as well, half empty, but still can barely keep up.

    Need more mexicans clearly.

    I was there for work early Oct, but for my personal expenses I was shocked at the exchange rate. I seem to remember that pulling money out of ATMs was competitive, but seems now they add a significant markup. Spot rate was showing $1.38 but I paid something like $1.53! Not sure if it was my bank or the atm company who decides that but fuck it was painful especially with the bad luck I had.

    At least I didn’t have to pay for anything else though so I can justify that 15 point exchange rate markup in my mind. I saw the vendor’s $14k bill for the two bottle service tables at Jewel and I’m glad I got to experience that for free.

    As fun it is to watch fat American debauchery. I prefer cheaper locations off America's soil.

    Don't they have one of those Lambo Owners Rally events that goes to Wynn? They did several years ago, but I can't recall the name... Something with Toro in it, I think.
