Awhile back, someone posted about cheap rooms on the strip. While not my number one choice, Circus is running a special through the Viva Las Vegas newsletter. The following is taken from that e-mailed newsletter I received this morning. The dates are through the end of January, so I hope that this helps someone.

Bettie

an
absolutely amazing offer from the Circus Circus Hotel/Casino for
the readers of the Viva Las Vegas Newsletter.

They are offering you a room rate of $29 per night Sundays through
Thursdays until January 30, 2003. That's $29 for the room. $29 for
one person or $29 for two people. Special weekend rates are also
available.

IN ADDITION:
These are for the Tower rooms and not the less desirable Manor rooms.
That's important. No minimum stay required (you can book one night only,
if you prefer). You can book up to 14 consecutive nights. Two free Breakfast
Buffet Coupons and $100 value Coupon Book will be given to you when you
check-in.

The $29 eligible dates are:
November 24,25,26 and 27.
December 1,2,3,4,5,8,9,10,11,12,15,16,17,18,19,22, 23,24,25 and 26.

Note that special rates are also available for any dates not mentioned
above.

Advance reservation is required by calling
1-800-444-2472 (press"1"). You must tell the telephone reservationist
who answers that you want the offer code "VIVALV" and state that you
receive the Viva Las Vegas Newsletter OR YOU WILL NOT GET ALL
THE BENEFITS.
