Default Vegas Visit again

Hi folks

I'm in Vegas from Sunday till Wednesday for CES, on business. I'll be staying at the Wynn.

My boss wants to go shopping so I said I would ask all my friends who live in LV to advise the best place to go We don't wanna pay tourist prices, not with the

Renting a Car? If so, head to Best Buy on Maryland Parkway, over by the UNLV campus. Not too far from the Wynn.
Fry's Electronics on the other end of Las Vegas Blvd (South).

Shopping (non electronic), I actually prefer Caesar's Palace. You'll find most of what you need and the prices aren't bad.

Thanks

Caesars is surely a license to print money, preying on all the tourists

Clothes and Electricals is what we'll be shopping for I guess.

We'll get taxis everywhere, and the train thingy, no renting cars

I think the Fashion show mall(3200 Las Vegas Blvd S # 600 Las Vegas, NV 89109
702-693-5985) has the best stores and is near the Wynn.I've been to some outlet stores around Vegas and they all seem to have dated clothes. not sure if that matters to you, but if it doesn't than heres the addy..875 S. Grand Central Parkway, Las Vegas, NV 89106.

nearest Best Buy location from the Wynn would be...

3820 S Maryland Pkwy
Las Vegas, NV 89119
Phone: 702-732-8283
Hours: Mon-Sat 10:00am-10:00pm
Sun 11:00am-7:00pm

nearest Circuit City

3778 South Maryland Parkway
Las Vegas, NV 89119

also, I would check out Fry's Electronics

6845 Las Vegas Blvd S
Las Vegas, NV 89119
(702) 932-1400


btw I may go to CES on wednesday..if you are attending on wednesday, just look for the Korean kid with the S2000 homecoming shirt.

Thanks guys

I'm flying out on Wednesday so won't be at the show. I'm touring the show quickly on Monday, and have meetings booked for the rest of the time.

Not even a spare evening to spend with any of you guys
