What kind of lines are there for general ticket holders visiting Disneys El Capitan Theater in Hollywood?|197529

We_re thinking about visiting El Capitan Theater in Hollywood, and don_t want to spend the extra money for VIP tickets. The web site recommends arriving at least an hour before show time to get seats. Is that really necessary? How bad is the crowd? There would be 8 of us, but all teenage or older, so we don_t need all the seats in the same row.

If they say recommend an hour, they are probably right. you have to take into consideration, Traffic, Parking, getting your seats and all those other things that _Always_ seem to go wrong when you want to do something at a specific time.

The past two shows I_ve been to, that 1 hour is just about right. The last show (Hannah Montana), we have VIP tix, and got there just as the box office was opening. There was already a considerable line (This is Friday morning before 10 AM, just so you know).

So yeah, an hour is about right. Maybe more on Saturday and Sunday.

We saw a show there a couple of months ago on a Sat afternoon. The movie had been out for a couple of months at that point. There was plenty of seating for us just to walk up and get the tickets. The theater may have been 1/3 full.

If you are planning on going to see a new release, than you need to get there earlier.

What are some great places to shop for clothes around shea?|152425

I am going to shea stadium in NY on Aug. 23 and i wanted to know if there were any good shopping malls for a teenage boy going back to school.

My friend, there are no shops around Shea Stadium. You_ll have to go to the Queens Center Mall, which is located on Woodhaven Blvd.

From Shea, you can take the Manhattan-bound (eastbound) #7 train (Purple Line) to 74th Street-Broadway/Roosevelt Avenue-Jackson Heights.

Once there, transfer to the _G_, _R_ or _V_ trains (Light Green, Yellow or Orange Line Local). Take either eastbound train from Roosevelt Avenue-Jackson Heights to Woodhaven Blvd-Slattery Plaza/Queens Center.

When you exit the subway at Woodhaven Blvd, walk a half block to the mall. You can_t miss it.

Good luck

How much money should I take for a 4 day trip to Las Vegas?|121501

I plan on going at the end of September. The flight and hotel are booked but how much should I take for the trip? I plan to gamble a little see some sites and shop for a couple of things, nothing major. Thanks for any help!

table games are cheap in some casinos, dirt cheap in some casinos and royally expensive in some others. The MG, Venetian, Bellagio are grand examples of expensive casinos where 4 losses at a stretch would mean you lost a $100 bill where as some like Alladin you can lose anywhere between 5 - 7 games straight and be down $100 and some casinos like the Orleans you need to loose ( depending on time ) 20 straight games to have thrown away $100. Now you need to be attentive...... what we do is we go looking at all casinos in the daytime and gamble in the night!
Take money depending on your gambling streak. I have a thumb of rule I play at the cheapie casinos where my money lasts at least 6-7 rounds! If I get 3 straight losses time to change table! take about $1000 for food and gambling. But I would keep some money aside for other things like the comedy clubs, the night shows etc.....

Food is expensive at all places in Vegas strip. venture out of the Strip to have your food they are real cheap.If you want to do something exotic have dinner at the Eiffel Tower of Paris Paris it cost about $200 and you need to be attired in formal wear ( means shoes, tie and a coat ).
If you plan on travelling outside do venture out to Hoover Dam it is a great sight and about 3 hrs drive away. But 4 days is not enough even for Vegas...... so I don_t think you will be travelling anywhere else. Remember to watch the water fountain show in front of Bellagio it is breathtaking and free!
I plan to re-visit Vegas in October!
You have fun Gambling and lots of Good luck to you

Oh another thing water inside every hotel Costs about $3 -$5 per bottle so remember to buy it outside before you go into your room!

I lived in Vegas for 4 years. The food is cheap _ the drinks are free as long as you are gambling. But, my biggest suggestion is to take a set amount of money to put into machines or to gamble with...then, don_t let yourself go over that set limit.That is where people get into trouble saying just 1 more time just a couple more dollars...you end up overspending.I always took rolls of quarters to keep myself entertained on the slots.Souveniers are cheap,too, Your biggest expense is the gambling...if you don_t overdo it there you_ll be fine with a few hundred dollars.If you plan to see a show be prepared to spend about $100. for good show tickets.

As much as you can...
Coz you are a lucky man..

I would take $200 per day if you are not much of a gambler. $50-$100 per day for gambling and the rest for food, shopping, and shows.

In 4 nights, its easy to drop a grand. $500 should do it just for the gambling - you_ll play alot more than you think. Shows are about $100 each (definitely go see Xumanity!! - it was off the hook) - two shows should be good for 4 night trip. Meals are quite cheap but shopping is quite expensive. Also if you go clubbing, watch out for the $15 drinks and $10 packs of smokes.

My advice, have a seperate cash reserve for your gambling money and charge everything else. Never go to the ATM in the casino or you_ll be deep in the hole if you do.

I went back in april for 4 days and only spent like 600-700 bucks and had alot of fun and bought alot of suvinours... Vegas is weird cause you can go there and blow all kinds of money with out gambling but you can also do ur homework and find all kinds of places to go and save money if you want to take that route. you can get a beer for between 1-10 dollars, i did my homework before i left, you will not have enough time to see what you want, you will have more problems with time then money.

Well the food down there is way expensive and if you are planning on gambling you are going to blow a lot (don_t get addicted). I would bring a lot cuz it goes away fast.

If you want to see a show, try to purchase your tickets before you leave on the trip(Cirque du Soleil has 5 shows;awesome)
I would take approx. 150.00 per day for Food, gambling, shopping,etc
You might want to allow yourself a specific amount for gambling each day. Once that is gone, you quit for the day.
Have one nice dinner, but don_t forget the buffets at Bellagio and the new Wynn are amazing. Also, seafood at Joe_s Stone Crab (Caesars Forum shops) is the best in the US. Go at lunchtime, when there are lower prices but the same good food.
Be safe and enjoy

spend 100.00 a day. stop after 50.00 if you don_t win anything

Las Vegas is expensive!! Take a lot of money.

I just came back from a trip on Friday. I took $500 per day. Worked just fine.

at least a grand or two

not counting airfare and hotel i would sayyou could get by on 500 or 600 dollars but 1000 dollars would be great.

take all of it. spend as much as you can.

6000 you know like 1500 a day that way you can have a good time.

If you budget how much you want to lose in those 4 days and don_t put in any more in the machines/tables. you can get a better idea on how much to bring (if you wanted to blow $100) a day on gambling(which is very easy to do). Base it around that , you never know you could be lucky !!! I would suggest with a $100 a day gambling budget,,probably a $1000?Good Luck .
