Saving Money At Buffets

- by The Editor - Leave a Comment

For many years the buffets in Las Vegas with their seemly endless choice of food were seen by the resorts as loss leaders with their low prices just like the cheap rooms and inexpensive shows to get you to stay at the property and gamble in the casino.

The Cosmopolitan when it opened was a real game changer with its Wicked …
