Good Idea: Tix4Tonight for cheap tickets for shows and buffets.
Bad Idea: Having an outdoor Tix4Tonight booth on the strip mid summer at a record 118 Degrees weather day in Las Vegas.
I enjoyed my first Tix4Tonight experience. It's way better than Groupon. That's another story I don't want to get in to, because Groupon customer service sucks. It was like trying to convince an Apple user that owns every Apple product to switch to Andriod. Like talking to a idiot and asking them to give up their baby. Not gonna happen. If you use Groupon consider your money lost and you we scammed and hope for the best. Customer Service will not help with issues. However, T4T you will get a better experience.
I like the fact that multiple staff member passed out water to keep us semi-cool under umbrellas in the Vegas death heat. Also, nice that a person gives you the 411 on tickets when you enter the line, so you don't get to the front and find out your tickets are sold out.
My only gripe is I feel the prices can be lower. This is Vegas there are a lot of free shows and comps everywhere! Also buy-one-get-one free is very common, just not at T4T. This place is a business making bank off of tourist. If you are lazy, this place is fine, but if you ask around or have hook ups in Vegas this place is a waste of time and money.
I do recommend you check out T4T, because I had a great experience. I saved money but I wasn't blown away by the savings. And I was offered other shows besides the one I was interested. Think of this place as a low budget travel agent, but not as pushy as a timeshare salesman.
That reminds me! Don't fall for timeshares in Vegas. Buy your tickets. You'll thank me later.
