We had a thread a couple weeks ago and it seemed everyone tthough Vegas was the place to go. So I am just curious when we should do it. I think it was agreed that the end of 2008 was good to, giving everyone plenty of time to stash a little cash away to be able to afford it. I am going to try my darndest to get myself there (my best friend even wants to come). When what weekend is best?

Being a full time student make any semester weekend bad. I'd love to go and could probably save enough by then but seeing as the semester starts the last week of aug/first week of sep. something mid-august would be best for me. Of course, I've skipped classes before!

I ADORE Vegas! I have a friend that lives there, too, so that would be so much fun for me! I think Columbus Day weekend would be best for me - I could stretch it to a 5-day weekend!

I picked the 10-12 2008 because my birthday is on the 12th and what better way to spend your birthday then with your friends. Although the idea of travelling scares me a bit because I haven't really travelled that much. But I think it would be worth it.

That would be so much fun! I can't vote right now, b/c more than likely Fall of '08 is when me and Patrick are going to be getting married!!! (If not before then
) Once we set a date (which may still be a few weeks or so), I'll let y'all know so we can try and come too!

I chose Oct. 10th-12th. We'd have to make reservations EARLY for that weekend, but it would be easiest for everyone to get off from work. Plus it could double as mine and my husband's anniversary trip.
Our anniversary is Oct. 15th.

My only other suggestion would be Labor day weekend, which is the last weekend in August.

"You guys" as in you wouldn't come??? You'd love Vegas. Lots of shopping.
And great food. And great bars. And pools. And.... I could go on and on.

If I had a job... and were able to save up... I'd love to go, but unfortunately it doesn't look positive for me!
