Potential Vegas Trip Quandary
Started by saharalv on Tuesday, 17th January 2012 1:36 pm
Hiya.
I've been putting in extra hours at work and have been told that I need to work Saturday (which would make it 7 straight days). I have an option as to when I can take days off, either Thursday and Friday, OR take Monday and Tuesday...
The issue is that I have an Encore comp for free rooms and $150 in freeplay that will expire soon. I wasn't planning on taking a trip so I only have a bit saved up (our savings account can be borrowed from, says my much better half). I was planning on taking a Vegas trip in March when I'll have more $$ saved, but no comps. My vacation days are pretty valuable this year, as I'll have to use it for paternity leave.
What should I do, guys?
Continue my April plans? Work 7 straight and make an impromptu trip to Vegas?? Or just take Thursday and Friday off and get wasted in Culver City??
I'm depending on you all for the correct answer. Thanks in advance!! Hugs!!

Go now. The later you go in your wife's pregnancy, the more unhappy she will be (if you go without her) or you will be (if she goes with you!). I know this from my experience doing Vegas both with and without my wife during her pregnancy...

Go now and enjoy yourself.

Never decide your trip based upon comps. New comps will come. (But be warned that March is more expensive than January).

i'll be the minority opinion and say skip the trip and save the money. You'll need it if you have a kid on the way.
