I know a lot of people who still feel that when I use the word “frugal” I mean cheap. Let me again give my definition of the word: getting good value for your money, at any level!
With that said, here’s an article from the Las Vegas Business Press about a new source for discounts in Chicago and Las Vegas, the 3 oclock club. The owner of this Web site caters, in his words, to “high-end demographics,” offering deep discounts to upscale restaurants, spas, and other establishments, such as go-kart race tracks in Vegas.
I haven’t personally taken advantage of any of these discounts yet since we have enough casino comps to cover all the upscale meals our arteries can handle. However, I will bookmark this site and check for non-casino activities when my teenage grandchildren visit. And it might be a good discount source for many of you who are not at a high casino comp level and want a bargain splurge at an upscale restaurant or spa during your Vegas visit.
I would appreciate reports from others who use this discount resource. Your evaluations, positive and negative, in the Comments would give other blog readers helpful information.

Great find Jean. This site will get some use.

Jean: thanks for the tip. I signed up with 3 O’clock and ordered a pair of race passes at 50% off at Pole Position karting. Five days later I received them in the mail. And, I can use the MRB coupon for more races. Every day I get an email with their daily specials. I’ve seen some repeats but hopefully more businesses will sign on.
