Liquor Store Prices

Are the prices for bottled liquor the same at Vegas stores as most of US? I plan to stock up my room, but didn%26#39;t know if I should just fly in with a few bottles in my carry-on or pick them up in LV.



Liquor Store Prices


We stopped at a grocery store in Vegas (don%26#39;t remember which one) and prices on their liquor seemed to be about the same. I broke a bottle of wine there. Glad it was only $3! :)



Liquor Store Prices


Liquor and beer prices vary pretty widely across the USA. Are they cheaper than Utah? Yes. New Hampshire? No.




I think you%26#39;d have a hard time with bottles of liquor in your carry-on. Unless you%26#39;re going to carry a LOT of 3-oz. bottles!




Prices vary greatly here in Las Vegas, just like I%26#39;m sure that every store in your town does not charge the same price. You can get a better deal at Sam%26#39;s Club or Costco than you can get at the hotel gift shop. Of course the hotel gift shop is probably not going to have have anything bigger than a pint. Where as Costco doesn%26#39;t have anything smaller than a liter bottle.





If you%26#39;re staying at the Gold Coast or Orleans they have liquor stores with very competitive prices. You can catch the shuttle to these casinos from Bill%26#39;s if you want to do some bargain shopping. Or you can spend a few dollars more and buy something at your hotels gift shop.





Only you can decide what your vacation time is worth.




BeachJunkie: Just an example...a jug of Seagrams here in Washington costs about 26 bucks...at the Orleans or Gold Coast, the same bottle costs about 15.99.....plus tax, of course...naturally, you now cannot take these bottles in your carry-on...so, a ten minute shuttle from Bills to Gold Coast saves you and me from taking extra weight on our carry-ons.at a cheaper rate....In years past, I always included a jug of bourbon, but no more...especially when it is cheaper in Vegas...people always talk about not spending time in their room , but there is much to be said about relaxing with a drink watching a good basketball/football/baseball game....after walking miles and losing so much on the slots...have a great time....




jungle, thank you.





I think I will take your advice. I agree sometime being able to have a relaxing hour in the room really rejunates! Also, I figured everytime we leave our room we can fill up a big mug or cup with a drink for the road...walking of course:)




I%26#39;m not sure where you%26#39;re staying but I found South Point Hotel%26#39;s gift shop very reasonable for liquor. You can also have a look at the ABC Stores in Desert Passage although I think they are higher priced.





I know people who drag their liquor in their checked luggage and it doesn%26#39;t break but if it did, what a big mess! Due to liquid restrictions, I do not think you can bring liquor packed in your carry-ons. I believe there is a 3 oz restriction.
