Is this a good B-day Present?

okay i'm a chick and my best guy friends b-day is coming up soon. How we met is we were assigned to be partners together in a class we had and we had to make this story about what we would do if we could visit 5 major city's in 5 days.The class was so dumb, we were the last class required to take it for credits. It's called Life management.



we were gonna go to las vegas and get drunk and i was gonna take him to a strip joint then jump in a fountain together at night or go to new york and sleep under the stars in central park. We'll probably never aford the full trip but we like to say that someday we'll go.



well for his birthday I was going to make 2 Cd's. 1 is going to be our favorite songs put together with print on the CD and rode map of the US saying "The soundtrack for Las Vegas." and the other CD is going to be all of our friends saying good things about him and wishing him a Happy B-day,including his sister and parents as a surprise. On the CD it will just say,"surprise and to put it in his computer."

Bank of America Branch/ATM in Vegas Strip Please Help!?

I"m currently in las vegas now on the strip. HOwever, there is no branch or atm where i can get my money. I didn't brought enough money from home and thought i could just withdraw money at the branch/atm. I found one bank of america atm that i read online about the Forum Shop at Caesars Palace. However, that machine does not allow me to withdraw any cash.



Does anyone know where else i can go? Do i have to go off the strip? I have no car. CAn someone tell me what is the cheapest way i can get to a bank of america ranch/atm while riding a taxi? I want to walk to the closest place possible and then take the taxi from there to the bank of america branch.



I read there was a branch near tropicana but isn't that on the strip? I have a map of the strip. The thing is i want to withdraw at least $4000 so if i withdraw at atm, it will cost me a lot of money each time and i know there is a limit as well. Thus, i want to get to a branch and then withdraw everything i need at once and do this by taking a cab there. HOw much would the cab cost? I know i have to times it by 2 since i'm going back and forth.Bank of America Branch/ATM in Vegas Strip Please Help!?
I am taking your question as 'serious'...though you are asking it on a website, instead of calling the customer service number on the back of your card. Also, any hotel concierge/operator/bell staff...would send you to the nearest one they know of. Additionally, if you can take $4,000 out, you shouldn't be fussing over the cost of a cab to get to an ATM.



However...a 'serious' answer is:



1) If you are near MGM/Mandalay Bay area...you would go East (towards the airport and past its entrance) to Maryland Parkway...there's a full-service branch there...next to a McDonald's and UNLV.



2) If you are nearer to T.I. (formerly Treasure Island) or Venetian, etc...then you should go West on Spring Mountain (Into Vegas' version of Chinatown)...It's just a few lights past the strip there (diagonally across the street from the Chinatown Plaza and across the street from Play It Again Sam strip club).



3) Take a city bus to 'downtown' or 'Freemont Street' AREA...there is a major BofA branch at the corner of Bridger and 4th street. About a block from Freemont street. (It sits one block west of 'the strip' or Las Vegas Blvd...however you wish to refer to it.
Use the ATM location feature on the Bank Of America Website. Enter in your starting address and it will take you to the closest one.Bank of America Branch/ATM in Vegas Strip Please Help!?
There is a Bank of America branch 3 blocks West of the Orleans.



The Orleans has a free shuttle to/from the strip, you catch it at Bill's Gamblin Hall



Then walk the three blocks from the Orleans to BOA.



Round trip cost - freeBank of America Branch/ATM in Vegas Strip Please Help!?
Best to see cashier at the casino. CAll the phone number on back of the card. SHould be one to help you locate a ATM near you.
Maybe its just me, but I dunno if withdrawing that much at one time is a good idea - or even possible!.



The other thing that raises a flag in my mind is how you could misjudge your spending money by $4000!!



You should use your BoA debit card to pay for most items in Vegas. If you are pulling the money out to gamble - not a good idea, especially in light of the fact that you already stated that you didn't bring enough money

He no longer wants a barney doll though.



well for his birthday I was going to make a CD case with barney on it with small text saying, "I told you I would give you what you always wanted, lol" and in the CD case would be 2 Cd's. 1 is going to be our favorite songs put together with print on the CD and rode map of the US saying "The soundtrack for Las Vegas." and the other CD is going to be all of our friends saying good things about him and wishing him a Happy B-day,including his sister and parents as a surprise.

Well any coments?Is this a good B-day Present?
That sounds like a very nice gift. It is the little things that mean the most. I remember when I was young and would ask my mom what she wanted for Christmas she would always say "a new car full of spending money" so after about the fourth year I went and brought her a hot wheels car and put money in it. Just a few dollars and some change. She loved it. She laughed so hard. She even took it to work and showed her co-workers and customers. She worked as a waitress at the time. I did get her something else, but it was the "new car full of spending money" that she told everyone about.



By giving him what you plan on, it will show him you listened to what he was saying and you took the time to remember.Is this a good B-day Present?

Questions about Ballys and bellagio?

Hi we are going to Las vegas here soon! We were going to stay at Ballys but might change our mind, what are the hotels right in the vicinity of Ballys and Bellagio... I am not familiar with that area of the strip what are all the hotels ... is there a map of the strip anywhere online that shows where the hotels are so I can see where the hotels are? if not, what are the good central ones by Ballys and Bellagio?Questions about Ballys and bellagio?
Here is a map of the strip and downtown. Flamingo, Harrahs and Imperial Palace are running deals all the time now. Keep Imperial Palace as the last choice in that central area.
Right there you are pretty much in the center of the strip. You are near Cesar's Palace, The Mirage, The Flamingo, Planet Hollywood and so on.Questions about Ballys and bellagio?
OK here are the hotels by the four corners that make up the four miles of the famous Strip



Tropicana, Excalibur, Luxor, Mandalay Bay, MGM Grand, NYNY, Monte Carlo



along the way Planet Hollywood



Bellagio, Ballys, Caesars Palace, Bills, Flamingo, Paris



Wynn, Encore, Venetiain, Palazzo, Fashion Show Mall



Sahara Hotel with walk to Circus Circus, Riveria and StratosphereQuestions about Ballys and bellagio?
Paris, Planet Hollywood, and Caesars Palace, these hotels are all on the center of the strip.
As you face Bally's, to your right will be Paris and Planet Hollywood. Directly across the Strip will be Bellagio. Map below.



*
Cheapovegas.com has the best map of the strip with one quick honest review of each hotel. If you stay at Bally's ask for the front tower for great views of Paris, Bellagio fountains, and a few others. It's not as updated as the back tower but the view makes up for it!



Also Bally's is connected to Paris on the inside which means you get way more eating, gambling, and entertainment options very close to your room! It may not sound like a big deal now BUT when you get there you will appreciate it!



Close hotels to Bally's are ~Paris, Bill's Flamingo, Bellagio



and



Bellagio's closest hotels are ~ Caesar's Palace, Monte Carlo(kind of), Bally's, and Bill's.



Bally's casino is easier to navigate and has slightly easier access to other sister properties. Plus Bally's is a monorail stop!
Have stayed in ballys and to be honest there are allot more hotels near bye with much better atmosphere,flamingo,caesars and mirage are just sum of the many great hotels near bye





have a great time
Hotels around the area you were describing would be Caesars Palace, Imperial Palace, The Flamingo, Venitian, and Palazzo. There are some more, but these are pretty much right around the Bellagio and Ballys. If you are looking for a hotel just to sleep and shower in go with the Imerial Palace. It's cheap and has a great location. The rooms are just like your regular hotel room, but they are clean. If you are looking for luxury go Caesars. Caesars is personally my absolute favorite hotel. There is a great pool, spas, and the Forum Shoppes, which you will have to check out reguardless if you stay there or not. The location is great and the hotel itself is breath taking, it's absolutely gorgeous! It's a little more money, but worth it. I haven't stayed there before, but I have been in the hotel numerous of times.

What zip codes in vegas area are nice to move to?

I am looking to move to Las Vegas. I have found some very nice homes but do not know if they are in nice areas. some area codes that i have found range from Henderson to North Las Vegas. Some of the area codes in Las Vegas are 89134, 89139, 89148 and 89143. In Henderson 89052 and 89012. please help me.... what is the best area codes? they all are a good 10+ miles from the strip and the area looks nice just based off of the homes. here is the link to an area code map.



http://www.lasvegasrealestatebythesalters.com/Zip%20Code%20Map.jpg



Once again, thanks for all of the help.What zip codes in vegas area are nice to move to?
89149 (Centennial Hills) is where it's at, newer area. All new shops and restaurants, and a brand new Hospital. Close to the freeway both 95 and the 215, the traffic up here isn't crazy unlike most other parts. New schools (if you have kids) we have everything up this way, that we need. With out it being busy and hectic. Stay clear of North Vegas (i'm north/west) great view up here of the whole strip/valley and close to the mountains.



89128 is also a nice area ( around Buffalo and Durango) also north/west.



89131 or 89129, 89144 and 89147 are good area's (nice and clean).

89134 and 89143 also good nice place to live (part of town)



Both 89139 %26amp; 89148 are newer area's but both, are busy and seen a little far off (nothing seems close, store places to eat). The tarffic is always so heavy in and around that part of town.What zip codes in vegas area are nice to move to?
Henderson by freeway is 30 minutes away from Vegas and that is a very busy freeway. The best parts of Henderson are in the Green Valley Development but there are great homes everywhere. You don't want to buy sight unseen because Henderson has a history of putting very nice by very ikkyWhat zip codes in vegas area are nice to move to?
I live in 89138 and I love it!

Getting around Vegas cheap?

We are stayin at the Flamingo and have no problem using the duce bus or the monorail so here is my ? . One evening we are planning on starting the night at Fix Lounge for the sunset and I understand there is a public overpass walkway to get to the cezars palace so as to be on the right side of the street to catch the bus down to the Mandalay Bay, but how do we catch the bus to come back the other way as there are no pedestrian walk ways or stops for about half a mile going the other way on the other side of the street as we will be going to the Harrah's from there. After that we will take the monorail back to the paris as I do not see a pedestrian cross walk anywhere around Harrahs. Is there a map of the pedestrin walkways? How does one get across Las Vegas Blvd without walking up the entire block? Also, is it true that it takes 45 min to take the Duce from Freemont St to mid strip? Thanks for any tips. Would we be better off on the MB night to take a cab to Harrahs w/b dressesGetting around Vegas cheap?
Information on all of the public transportation in Las Vegas, including all of the free hotel shuttles.

You can catch the Deuce across from both Mandalay Bay or Luxor, it's just as easy though to take the monorail from MB down to Excalibur then walk the pedestrian bridge over to the MGM and catch the bus their.



This is a map of the Monorail, and the LV strip, but if you look closely you can see the pedestrian bridges over the strip(they are grey)

http://www.vegastodayandtomorrow.com/mon鈥?/a>



From Harrah's to Paris is not that far to walk and there is a pedestrian bridge over Flamingo Rd. It runs from Bill's Gamblin Hall over to Bally's.



The Deuce probably takes around 25-30 minutes, depending on traffic, to get from Fremont St to Harrah's. It only takes the bus 45 minutes from McCarran airport to downtown.

I like riding the Deuce. I didn't think I would but it really isn't bad at all. A 24 hr pass can be had for cheap, like $5. You can take the free tram up to the Excalibur, then walk across and make your way over to the MGM Grand. The Deuce can be caught right in front the MGM Grand.

Difference between Rainbow Six: Vegas for PS3/360 or PSP?

I am thinking on buying it for my PSP. and i have seen previews and gameplay for PS3 and it looks great. I know there is a difference in graphics but how about maps, missions, features, arcade mode, multiplayer, and especially scenarios.

Oh yea and if you can, can you please tell me the places in Las Vegas it shows like the casinos, what parts of the strip, and other fantastic places in Vegas



I know long question

And thank you so muchDifference between Rainbow Six: Vegas for PS3/360 or PSP?
If I were you I would get the 360 version, I bought the PS3 version and exchanged it for the 360 version. There's no difference in maps or any other feature, but there is a HUGE difference in online play. There are way more people playing the game on XBL and the connections are way better. Plus I prefer FPS with the 360 controller. Also, another huge difference is the framerate in the PS3, it is slow, it might be a tad bit better looking, but it runs slower than the 360 version. If there are alot of explosions going on, the game will start to slow down. Even sound effects on the PS3 version don't register, like if I were to fire off some rounds with a sub machine gun, parts of the time, the gun won't make any noise. As for places in the game, you are totally away from the strip, no big name places/hotels/casinos that were in the first game. I don't even recall ever seeing the Las Vegas strip in the game at all.
