Vegas On the Cheap: Locals-Only Deals

Live in Las Vegas? Your best ticket to discount resides in your wallet -- your Nevada ID. Whip that mugshot out and you can land deals on show tickets, restaurants and more.

Deal from a Gazillionaire: What's better than a millionaire? A Gazillionaire. And he happens to be the host of Absinthe at Caesars Palace. Through the end of June, locals can nab $20 off tickets to the show using the code "LOCAL" when ordering tickets. Kick it up a notch by going on June 24, proclaimed Absinthe Day. After the zany show under the big top, you can play games such as Champagne Pong, and Le Corn Hole or take on the Gazillionaire in What Would You Do for Free Absinthe Tickets.
