You probably will have to rub your eyes a bit to make sure you aren’t seeing things.
Years ago, I visited Vegas – it was just after I turned 21, and was a semi-broke college student, traveling with a companion who believed that roulette and aimless road trips were the keys to Vegas fun. Clearly, there’s much fun to be had in Vegas, but a great deal of it is while shopping!
Alas. I did not get to experience this. But you might.
For one reader, I am giving away the tools you need to plan your next Vegas Shopping Getaway!
I recently was checking out VisitLasVegas.com and they have it pimped out with so many great shopportunities, I almost had an inappropriate reaction.
One reader will win a $150 Southwest Airlines gift card and $150 American Express pre-paid gift card – perfect to get you started! To have your chance to win, check out the VisitLasVegas link above, and tell me below about your dream shopping vacation experience, if it became a reality. To be eligible to win, you must also choose any three entries here at Shopaholics Daily from the past two weeks and leave a comment. Deadline to enter is June 24. Good luck!

My dream shopping trip would be to be dropped of on 5th ave in NYC with lots of cash, lol!
I would love to shop the Forum Shops At Caesars. LOVE IT!
Oh, How I need this….A mommy’s getaway shopping time!
I would plan an outlet shopping spree and visit
Fashion Outlets Of Las Vegas
Las Vegas Outlet Center and
Las Vegas Premium Outlets
The dream would be that my husband would be left back at the hotel and I would get to shop by myself!
I am with you! Saving money means more shopping! I even like the part about leaving your husband at the hotel!
The Grand Canal Shoppes caught my eye … because .. quote … I read ….
“You’ll find more than 80 shops at this unique, Italian-themed promenade.”
Ohhh .. what fun !
Yeah, I loved the shoppes when I went last year. Couldn’t buy tho cause I was broke. : )
Did it .. left three comments at three different entries at Shopaholics Daily from the past two weeks.
i look forward to a Hawaiian vacation with my special one, I promised her a grass skirt!
I have to admit I’m a self-professed outlet store junkie, and I usually prefer to balance quantity and quality, so my dream shopping experience would be to hit the Las Vegas outlet center and Las Vegas premium outlets and go hog wild. What’s terrific about these outlets is that, in addition to offering high-fashion options like D&G and Armani, they also have more accessible stores like J. Crew and Banana Republic – and also usually have other stores that complete my dream, such as music and book stores, which I also love. Rather than wasting all of my time and money at the casinos, I’d much rather spend a day at the outlets and see how far I can stretch my spending money and enjoy the thrill of a good bargain!
I left comments on these three entires:
(1) Girl-Approved Hair Care For Men
(2) Kate Szabone Silver Teardrop Necklace
(3) Geek Chic Cthulu Necklace
Thanks!

Me, too! Saving money at each store means more shopping in the long run! Yeah!
My dream shopping get away would be a one day flight to New York City, to see the latest fashions and a chance to go shopping at some of the cool stores.-Of course in my dream I would also recive a coach purse lined with hundreds just for this special occasion!
I have only been to Vegas once more than 10 years ago. I would love to check out Fashion Show Las Vegas, which I have never been. My dream shopping would be to shop without any limited amount of money AND time! I want to arrive at Fashion Show Las Vegas with a super cool convertible car!

The pavement is so “HOT” in New Orleans during the summer however, Vegas Shopping Mall is even HOTTER!!!

I commented on The Torn Jeans Trend, $15 Deals at Old Navy and Save Yourself posts
I commented on the bronze bag, power of a red lip and the confidence of a swim suit. SHOPPING is glorious.
I would like to shop at the following places:
Mircle Miles Shopping Center
Fashon Show Las Vegas

Even if I can’t afford alot of the stuff. Looking is great too.
I would hit up the Las Vegas Outlet Center! Even if I’m in Vegas I’m still going to find a good deal!

Ahhhhhhh Vegas. I haven’t been to Vegas since my wedding, and I’d love to go back. I definately saw some sales that I didn’t raid last time I was there
VisitLasVegas.com is great, it can help me plan out trips, where to stay, where to shop… its got deals and coupons and everything a girl needs to go crazy. I’d love to hitup some of those outlet malls listed, I didn’t even think to head off strip last time, but this time – no more touristing it, I want to shop like a local!
Thanks for the amazing contest!
I commented Here, Here, and Here
My dream shopping would be at Fashion Outlets Of Las Vegas. I’m a bargain shopper and I love to get the most for my money!
I commented on 3 posts. Thanks!
I am a bargain shopper at heart, so my first answer would be the outlet malls…but I would really love to have a luxe Vegas shopping experience – like a little ray of sunshine in my grad school penny pinching days! I would love to go to the forum shops at Caesar’s and get a sexy bikini or a “vegas dress” (yes, every girl should have ONE!). I want to be able to buy something I would usually deliberate on for months without thinking and be able to feel the rush of wearing it out for the first time!
I have commented on the ABS sale posting, the Jet jeans posting, and the Sex & the City Cosabella posting!
Thanks for the contest.
My favorite shopping experience was as a kid me and my mom went on a tour bus christmas shopping spree we went to 3 malls in 8 hours they played games on the bus and gave away presents and we also made a dinner stop, we bought a lot of presents that day and had so much fun with the people on board. At some stops some people were exhausted and stayed on the bus.
I left comments on 4 sites (Got carried away)
Retro Bow Bikini
I Do Not Whine, I Wine

3 three shops to visit in vegas would be
The forum shops at Ceasar’s Palace

I’d hit the Grand Canal Shoppes then I’d ride the gondolas!
I had a shopping dream where I somehow win a timed shopping spee and I pick out all these fabulous items, and then I wake up and realized it was just a dream, it has yet to come true but I have won gift certificates to stores in the past where I can create my own shopping spree within the limits of the gift certificate.

My dream Vegas Shopping trip would be to go to the Forum shops and buy without ever having to either look at a price tag or wonder how I will ever manage to get the things I buy to fit into my suitcase!

Shopping at Vegas is a dream for me! Truth be told, Vegas is all about gambling, glittery lights, lovely babes, amazing casinos and a shoppers paradise. But I guess enhancing the market of fair trade shop in such areas would be a nice environmental moment to start.
