    Hi, you can do vegas on a budget if you like. there are buffets and all you can eat restaurants galore. every hotel has free attractions and entertainment eg treasure islands pirate shows, Ballagio fountains etc, even the strip itself is more than a days walkabout. If you're gambling the drink is free!, even if you are playing the penny slots, although its a good idea to tip a dollar or so each drink if you want the waitresses coming back.

    Unless you do a major amount of gambling and shopping its not gonna be as expensive as you might think, especially in four days.

    Bottom line, If you want to spend hundreds/thousands/millions;) a day its very easy but if you are travelling on a budget its just as easy to do aswell.

    I think when we went we budgeted about $100 for food each day. We stayed in the Bellagio and I think breakfast in the buffet there was about $20 each. Also we don't drink wine or anything so that $100 would just be for food and soft drinks.

    Probably the most impossible question in the world to answer :)

    A little gambling for me for example would be planning to spend up to $150 per night. For you it may be a lot more/less...

    Consider taking a trip down to Fremont Street if you're only interested in small stake betting.

    It's a bit friendlier and relaxed down there too.

    fremont street is much cheaper for drinks ( so probably food aswell)
    To be honest i found drinks to be very expensive there so if you are not planning on drinking a lot, you will save loads.
    Some places do all day buffets which are very good value.
    However if you are planning on doing grand canyon or a show- you will have to spend a fair bit.
