As soon as you get on a plane or arrive to Vegas, the first thing everyone wants to do is have a drink. Who can blame them right? As it is a sweltering 100 degrees outside. Well, I'm one of the people who think Vegas was purposely constructed in a desert to have tourist consume more alcohol. However, to beat Vegas casino & bar owners from trying to get your money, I have devised a method that will surely save you at least 50% on alcoholic drinks. A) BYOB - Bring your own Beer:

 1. If possible, bring your own fine liquor.  I recommend something clear like a good vodka such as Belevedere or Grey Goose because it can be easily mixed with any other types of mixers and is the staple to classic drinks like martinis.

2. However, most of us arrive late into Vegas because you have that "one" friend who constantly takes forever and looks exactly the same. Sometimes, I question why it takes a guy 1 hour to get ready or is it simply that his internal clock is set 1 hour late? Anyways, we are always late and forgo the recommended Alcohol run prior to driving or flying out to Vegas. Plus, I guess its a good idea to not have several hard liquor bottles in a car, if you ever get pulled over. The only solution is to get Alcohol in Vegas - but the question now is Where??? I'm not sure why many don't realize but there are membership wholesale outlets in Vegas such as Costco Warehouse and Sam's Club. The addresses for Costco are 222 S Martin Luther King Blvd, Las Vegas, NV‎ - (702) 384-5211‎ & 6555 N Decatur Blvd, Las Vegas, NV‎ - (702) 415-2300.  The address for Sam's Club is 7175 Spring Mountain Rd., Las Vegas, NV‎ - (702) 253-0072‎.  These locations will be by far the cheapest way to stock up on liquor especially if you are planning a Bachelor Party.  A huge 1 liter will be about $45, which is a steal considering when a club charges you $900 for a 750ml small bottle.  Remember , bring your membership card or borrow one before leaving to Vegas.  Btw, this is also the place to pick up beer food and snacks.  If you really want to impress the ladies, pick up a box of cupcakes. After you invite the girls back, place 1 single cupcake out and watch the girls fight and claw each other for it.  After one wins, take out another cupcake and repeat again.

3. Pre-party: keep the bottles chilled and fill up water bottles and swig away as you stand there for an hour as groups of girls and ugly guys with dates pass you. B) Getting Free DrinksCasino policy is to give you drinks while you are gambling. The trick here is to APPEAR to be gambling or gamble conservatively, so my method of choice is to stick with games that get you quicker access to the roaming waitresses and bartenders. The tipping policy is a dollar a drink.1. Video poker bar - every casino has one and its built into the actually bar. So slip in a $20 and play slow poker, the great thing is that the bartender is right there and you can get a drink every 3-5 minutes. 2. Tables - Waitresses are required to service the tables 2x faster than slot machines. A trick is to hang around this area and simply have chips in your hand or just stand close to a player, anyway you do it a bartender will ask you if you want anything. 3. Slots - Pick slot machines that are close to where the waitresses fulfill their drink orders, so they can easily spot your raised hand. However, due to how you are usually asking a waitress that is not assigned to your area - I sometimes go for the kill here and ask for 2 strong drinks. If she says, "sorry sir, only 1 drink per person", just say "ohh im sorry my gf went to the restroom".

 4. Players Club - This is the last resort and most desperate method because after you lost over $1,000 bucks, you will get drink coupons sent to you via postal mail. Plus, no respectable true Vegas insider will use a coupon for a drink - yes, for a buffet but not a drink..C) At a clubNever get table service unless you are willing to use the table to get chicks as shots are much cheaper if you order them directly at the bar. To get the best service aka more alcohol, always use a girl to order the drinks for you. This theory has been tested and 98% girls will get more alcohol when ordering. As always drink responsibly and write your room # and hotel on your arm - because at the end of the day, "we leave no man behind".
