Bachelorette Party Advice!

A childhood friend is getting married next month and her Maid of Honor (also a childhood friend) planned a pretty extravagant bachelorette party to a CASINO this weekend. We're travelling about 4 hours to it, spending the night, gambling, going to dinner AND paying a cover for a night club. Not to mention drinking, drinking and drinking. I'm not a big gambler at all. I"ll probably stick to slots since they're easy but get boring! Plus gambling = free drinks. I had to put my foot down when they wanted us to pay $350 for a bottle of champagne to ENTER a club and have a VIP table at the club.

It's truly going to be a very pricey, calorie laden day and night!

Any advice for saving money and calories this weekend?

    Hmmmm! :love: Sounds like a fabulous weekend! :love:

    Well, suggestions:
    a) Any pit stop on the way, buy alot of water :wink:
    b) If you can stop by a supermarket, grab as much fruit as possible (mixed possibly) and a bag or two of prepared salad kits :wink:
    c) Dance your *kitten* off!!!!!!!!!!!!! (Burn those calories!!!!!) :wink:

    Have a great time!!!!!!!

    saving money = be a slow gambler at the slots, find one waitress, tip her 5 bucks your first drink and she will keep coming back to you :)

    Be sure the casino you are going to gives free drinks to players. Not all of them do! If you gamble, don't take your ATM card! Just bring a certain amount to play with, and if it goes, no more gambling. Have a great time, and good luck!
