Free… the most beautiful word in the English language. Well, it might be a recession and yes, you can find deals, but free — that’s a whole ‘nuther animal! I was at the Hard Rock Hotel walking from the parking garage yesterday, and when I walked past The Pink Taco (home of the world famous “wet burrito”) I saw a sign with a delicious-looking pink margarita. I suddenly realized what I was reading: Every Thursday from five to seven p.m., girls who show up wearing pink drink free – free pink margaritas!
Sunday Mornings (or Late Saturday Nights) in Las Vegas
