You don't like crowds during the summer months or weekends? Try visiting a gaming destination on their off-deason periods. There are Las Vegas strip mega-hotels that offer one night stays in the price range of $10 to $20 a night. These are $80 to $120 rooms during peak seasons and on weekends. January and Feburay hotel prices are some of the lowest of the whole year. Also think about a Sunday through thursday visit instead of a week-end trip. That kind of schedule can save a lot of money which can be used for other things.
