I went to LV for the first time ever within the past month. We stayed at Mandalay Bay; which is essentially at the end of the new strip. To go to the old strip it cost me $33 in cabfare. I clearly underbudgeted. The second day there I drank RBV's all day and chugged a rum n coke. I was done. All I ate was hot n spicy cheetos that day so you can imagine the mess.
