Yes, It's Tough in Vegas These Days

Earlier today I had a post on the "Death of Vegas" and mentioned that I've been getting a lot of offers for very low room rates.  Look what just came in today:

Back in 2002 my family spent five days at the Monte Carlo and I think it cost us $69 a night for weeknight rates. Eight years and not insignificant inflation later the rates are less than half of what we paid.

Yes, they've got trouble over there.
