So, I just had my worst gambling trip ever in Vegas and pretty much blew my wad in hours (didn't matter what game I played, what sport I bet on, etc...everything lost). So I have a comp room for two more nights at the Cosmopolitan and am about to say screw it, and book an early flight back home today. It's too warm to do anything outside for me (not accustomed to 95+ degree weather) and the pool doesn't have a lot of cover. I'm not much of a shopper, nor do I want to use my charge card to spend money needlessly on something I don't need. I have seen pretty much seen every Cirque de Soleil show there is. I do have a rental car. I was thinking maybe a massage would be nice (if I could find something away from the casinos that was reasonable). Any suggestions or do you think I'm on the right track to just leave early?

it's going to cost to change your flight too.

To save money, don't park in a MGM garage.

Go check out the free entertainment on fremont st downtown!

You can watch bands people watch grab a big cup from a gas station and mix up a drink and just stroll.

Cheaper food down there too.

Not judging I had it happen ONCE on a vacation myself.

Just learn from it!

I am assuming you have resources for non gambling items like food since you mentioned shows.

LOL, you guys and the MGM parking thing are starting to crack me up. It's only $160 to get a flight out (that's not a big deal to me). I have resources, just no liquidity today.

Default thanks for helping las vegas

Lost everything in a few hours? Incredible how people do that and then your supposed to feel sorry for them. Typical person NOT budgeting. Were you staying for four nights and brought about 500 dollars? If thats the case... don't feel sorry for ya. If you did bring a low amount then you needed to gamble at lower stakes and not for long. Probably a poor gambler too... playing keno.... the slots.... roulette.... all the terrible games in the casino. Just a guess, you were drinking heavily right? Thanks for adding to our economy in Vegas though. Also, the people still posting how its funny how everyone is so worried about the $10 parking fee.. ya know what... let me know when your going you can pay for me too. So, it will be 20 dollars for you and nothing for me !! what?? are ya cheap? cant afford $20 bucks!! geez
