Vegas doesn’t have to cost an arm and a leg – try these fun activities to enjoy Sin City on a budget!
Las Vegas is full of glittery, bright ways to spend your money from casinos to star-studded shows to sultry clubs with high cover charges. It can seem impossible for someone on a budget to visit and still have fun – or for someone who lost all their money in roulette to fill the remainder of their trip. Instead of moping in the hotel bar, visit these cheap Vegas activities – you’ll forget you wanted to hit the blackjack table entirely.
