With souvenirs and shopping sprees essential to most holidays, Vegas takes some of the worry off your wallet. From designer labels and brand-name shoes to gifts and cool stuff for the
kids, the city’s factory outlets are great places to bargain-hunt. Downtown, check out the Las Vegas North Premium Outlets and Las Vegas South Premium Outlets (the two are about 15 minutes apart by car and together boast approximately 290 shops).
can’t go past Bonanza Gifts. The self-proclaimed “World’s Largest Gift Shop” features everything from 99-cent gag gifts to customary t-shirts and shot glasses to Native American jewellery and Elvis memorabilia.

For frugal fare, there’s no better bargain than a Vegas buffet. Most of the casinos feature restaurants with all-you-can-eat breakfast, brunch, lunch or dinner deals. For really good value, tuck in to the Ports
O’ Call Buffet at the Gold Coast Hotel & Casino. There you’ll find breakfast and lunch for about AU$10 and dinner for about AU$16.
