There were 4 of us checking in with two rooms at the Mirage for 4 nights and I gave the girl a $50 sandwich... she didn't ask for IDs right away but I made sure she saw the $50 before I asked about complimentary upgrades. I was able to get both of our rooms upgraded to Tower Deluxe plus 8 spa passes (worth $25 each). From what I've seen, most people have had success with tipping $20, but I'm guessing it would depend on who you're tipping and which hotel you're staying at.
cool. those are some good deals.. i would love spa passes
While she was doing the room upgrade I just asked if she was able to provide any buffet or spa passes. She asked how many I wanted and since only 2 of us were using them for the 4 days, I asked for 8 (they covered the $25 admission into the gym & spa... not for treatments).

oh sweet... thanks for the additional tips.
hey how's vancouver?? im going to whistler next week..
Vancouver is beautiful! We've been having a string of hot hot weather over the past week although it's cooled down to about 25C. I love whistler, a shame I haven't been able to make it up this summer yet but it's always a fun trip when I can. How long are you coming out for and what's the occasion?
just for a few days.. and i'm just visiting a friend that lives over there. also have some friends in vancouver i want to visit.
okay, totally off vegas now ... lol
should i rent a car? or just take the bus from the vancouver airport to whistler?
I've gone on a couple six day stays to LV and have always just stuck to the $20. I think the $50 is excessive unless you're asking for a bunch of other upgrades.
hmmmm, good question! I always like having a car for the sake of convenience but if you're staying in whistler the entire time then you're basically walking everywhere anyways and a car would be useless. I'm sure your friends will drive you around if necessary :P
true that..! saving another $400 for my Vegas trip.. cha ching!

We're staying at the HR next week. Checking in Wednesday and checking out Monday... I was thinking of doing $40 just because I didn't want the $20 not to be enough...
