    Need vehicle insurance deductible advice

    I'd raise the collision on all 3 to $1000. Leave your comp at $100. It won't save you enough to raise it. Call your agent and they can get you some quotes.

    Help me choose our hotel!

    All of your choices would be nice. I've stayed at Bellagio,Mirage and the Venetian. Mirage is by far my fav. I'd stay at Bellagio again but it would have to be in a fountain view room and a good deal. Bellagio rooms are very nice but the pool area didn't do it for me. All the restaurants...

    We've got an 2008 Outlook and have been pleased with it. This summer the water pump went out on it on an out of town trip. We dropped it off at 8:00am on a Sat and picked it up by 11:00. This was covered under the power train warranty (our regular warranty was out) We were very pleased with...

    How far in advance to hotel deals come out?

    Try Smarter Vegas.com for hotel codes. For our August trip I booked 3-4 mos ahead of time. Rates went down a few times and I rebooked each time. After about the 3 month point my rates at the Mirage climbed. Got a tower deluxe for Thur Fri and Sat for $104 each night.
