So, What is the Twenty Dollar Trick?
The twenty dollar bill trick is sweeping the travel industry and becoming extremely popular, especially in Las Vegas. When you check into a hotel you simply slip the front desk clerk a $20 bill with your credit card, while asking "Do you have any complimentary upgrades available?". The general rule of thumb is that the front desk clerk will check for upgrades and if they cannot find anything they will return the $20 tip, making it risk free!

Big Daddy (Apr 27, 08) - SUCCESS (Salon Suite) Success--- I did the sandwich trick and it worked. I gave a fifty to a cute girl at the desk and she asked "is there anything special I can do for you". What service! I said "anything you can do would be greatly appreciated." When I got to my room, I couldn't believe it! The best fifty I have ever spent in Vegas! |  |

Heather (Apr 27, 08) - SUCCESS (Tower Deluxe) I read about the trick, so I thought I would try it. I couldn't believe it worked. I just held the folded twenty in my hand the whole time I chatted with the clerk. It was a great room with a jacuzzi tub., and stone shower. I am leaving in 1 week to go again, and will definitely try it! |  |
