Budget & Tips

At present, the exchange rate between the dollar and the euro is slightly to Europeans' advantage (US$1 = €1.07). But with high inflation and a higher standard of living and prices, it's not as easy to get a bargain as it was several years ago. So it's not really worth it to buy products such as classic clothing, electronics or computers. It's a different story, however, if you visit the outlets to the north and south of the Strip. With fluctuating exchange rates, the situation can change rapidly. So don't go on a spending spree.

For good deals, some stores like Boot Barn (the cowboy culture specialist; www.bootbarn.com) offer year-round deals with one product bought, the second offered or 50% off the second purchase.

Sales

Thanks to the presence of two outlet stores on the north and south sides of the Strip, bargains are available all year round. Otherwise, Black Friday and Cyber Monday (at the end of November) are the two most important shopping days in the United States. On the other hand, you'll need to be patient and get to the stores early if you want to take advantage of the big discounts on offer. It's also good to know that each holiday (Memorial Day, President's Day) is regularly accompanied by a sale. Finally, some magazines, newspapers and free journals offer coupons with discounts ranging from a few dollars to very attractive percentages.

What's very local

Because Las Vegas is such a diverse city with so many different communities, there are dozens of stores specializing in Latino, Asian and European cultures. In short, if you're looking for something specific, Las Vegas is the place to find it.

Every casino has a gift store. In addition to the traditional Las Vegas merchandise, you can also buy clothing and accessories specific to the establishment (towels, caps, T-shirts, etc.).

In addition to Latino culture, Nevada also boasts a rich Native American past, with handicrafts and jewelry. Important boutiques include Silver Post (located in Downtown Summerlin).

Tourist traps

Like everywhere else, Las Vegas is not immune to street vending. Beware, then, as the products on sale are essentially counterfeit. Buying them is forbidden and can get you into trouble at customs.
