If you sit at a bar drinking then yes but it will be expensive anyway. You can drink for free in Vegas if you're in a casino gambling. Sit at a table game, slot machine etc and within minutes a valet will ask you if you want a drink. Order what you want and tip $1 a drink that's all most do! If it's a busy Saturday night you may want to tip $3-$5 per drink as you can wait a long time for a server to come to you but by tipping larger they will keep an eye on you.
Example - I arrived in vegas, dropped my bags and went down to the casino (NYNY) was gagging for a pint after the long flight. i went driect to the bar and paid $13 for a bottle of bud and a glass of coke. If i had sat down i could've got both for $2!
If you're well off then tip as much as you like, taxi driver get 10-15%, restaurants just use you nogging, if the bill is $65 then pay around $80.
As for sales tax, our prices in England include taxes but in America they dont so just use 10% as a rule of thumb so if the label on a pair of levi jeans says $40 when you get to the till it'll be closer to $45!
Have you booked your hotel yet? there's more to think about than you are selecting a hotel, pick the wrong one and you could be in for a 30-45 min walk just to get to the strip! |
