One of the best places on the strip to get Snacks, drinks and booze is the ABC store in the miracle mile shops.  it’s a short walk from Paris, horseshoe, Bellagio, Caesars and Cosmopolitan.   prices are a little bit higher than a normal convenience store, but much less than the stores in the hotels which will be at LEAST twice as much.   With the need to hydrate out there, you could easily spend $40 a day on water and Gatorade at a hotel.   Also, if you go in the morning, there are two places about 100 ft away that have $6.99 type breakfast that are ok.   (Cantina and Hollywood I think are the names) We usually stay at Bellagio and bring a shopping bag , as the plastic bags don’t hold up great with lots of water and Gatorade.   Also on just about every other corner is a big CVS.

As far as sunscreen, bring lots.  if you’ve never been, some of the hotels like Luxor, Excalibur, Paris, and Planet Hollywood have very few shady spots and they are almost immediately taken up the first few minutes the pools open.    Once people are at the hotel for a day they figure out where the shade is and they lineup half an hour before the pools open and rush to them.  This late in the year it’s not as bad as early summer though because the sun is lower and some of the buildings block the sun for more of the day.  If any ladies are going, I highly recommend one of those giant hats.
