Walgreen's & CVS on the strip charge a lot more than you would pay at home but that's what you get for forgetting stuff. I just came back yesterday. My friend forgot her toothbrush and the cheapest one at CVS was $8.50. Water was around $2 for 16 oz bottle. If you plan to do any gambling, waitresses will bring you "free" drinks (cocktails, soda, beer) while you are playing and they usually have little bottles of water. Of course you have to tip them a couple bucks.
I love Vegas--have a great time.
Thank you very much for this. I'm a diabetic and need to keep my insulin cold. I guess I'll be emailing to discuss with the property what can be done. I am so used to every hotel I've been at for the last 15 years having a mini fridge, I didn't even think about that.
