Commentary:

There are many items available in Las Vegas that are not absolutely free but are still exceptional values.  These are mentioned on another page entitled Good Deals.

Someone once called Las Vegas the “Land of the Free” and, compared to similarly sized cities, there is a lot to be had gratis.  This list doesn’t even begin to cover the many trivial key rings, pens, postcards, etc. that are dispensed locally.  This list also doesn’t cover the profusion of articles that are dispersed at the numerous conventions in the Las Vegas area.  Nor the incredible volume of free sexually oriented reading material that one can obtain.  Nor the vast array of free magazines that cover gambling and other entertainment available in Las Vegas.  Even with such material eliminated, this list is still substantial.

WARNING:  Most large casinos distribute free gaming guides offering sketchy information that poorly describe the table games.  Such brochures rarely give instructional information or strategies for winning play.
