    Yes! The cashback maximum you can get with a purchase at the Walgreens on Fremont Street is $20. The ATM is a part of ALLPOINT network. No fee for me since I was part of the network.

    My Mom can confirm that the ATM of shame at Binions is $3.75

    My Mom can confirm the ATM of shame at Circus Circus is $7.99!!

    My Mom can confirm that the Heart Attack Grill’s ATM fee is now $1.95!

    My Mom can confirm the ATM of shame at Harrah’s is $9.99!!!!!!

    My Mom can confirm the ATM of shame at Mirage is $7.99.

    We are heading to the East side of the strip for the final leg of our journey. I will be able to give updates on any further ATM of shame from that side within the next 3 days.

    Saw a guy turn a HUGE coffee can full of change in for bills at HOOTERS last night. Wasn’t aware you could do that! Would have loved to get rid of all the change I’ve accumulated on this trip so far.

    Does the ATM at Heart Attack Grill have a limit?

    The max you can withdraw per day depends on your bank account withdrawal limit, and that’s different for everyone, so it can be more than 500 depending on your bank.

    I didn’t have to visit the ATM at all this trip. My Mom sure did though!
    Every time I turned around it seemed like she had snuck off to get more money from the ATM of shame!

    We went in to Casino Royale with the intention of checking the ATM fee. Maybe someone else can confirm how much the ATM fee is there since I forgot.

    Does Walgreens offer cash back? I'm asking because that's been my move in the past when I'm in Los Angeles.

    If not, I would suggest the tourist/convenient store and the within walking distance of Circus Circus right by the motor hotel, its hit or miss but the fee is around $2.50

    I believe there are Bank of America ATMs in M&M world and at the T-Mobile arena box office.
    Again, unless you are a Bank of America customer, I assume they charge a fee?

    I used Walgreens and CVS fee-free because my bank participates in the All-Point network. They had a $200 per transaction limit so I just made multiple withdrawals in a row up to my maximum.

    Finding one that was working was hard, though. CVS at TI, Walgreens at Venetian and CR weren’t working the whole trip. The Walgreens down by Ross, PH CVS, and Downtown Walgreens all up and running.

    Cracking! I'm staying there later this year, so that's great news!

    For UK readers: the Starling bank card - pitifully easy to apply for and set up from their smartphone app - charges no overseas transaction fees, as others have mentioned earlier in the thread. It and uses the Mastercard interbank rates, which have extremely narrow rate spreads. I've got one of these, and it works remarkably well within Europe. I'm looking forward to seeing if it plays nicely in the States. I'm utterly fed up with HSBC's charges and their tendency to decline overseas transactions even when I've notified them where and when I'm travelling!

    This is random but it would be cool if we made a list of all the casinos and their ATM fees. I mean I wouldn't walk far to save a couple dollars, but at the same time I don't want to pay $10 when I'm already getting whooped at the table lol

    Set up a line of credit at the casino. Easy, free and fast.

    Not as easy for UK visitors.

    I'm lucky that my bank (Chase) reimburses me for ATM fees, but I rarely use them in Vegas. If I have to hit an ATM, it means that I went over budget which is never a good sign. LOL

    Be aware that the fee isn’t always a flat amount. So make sure of that. Plus notify your bank and they can raise the daily limit of withdrawal as well.

    Unless people are going to different Las Vegas than I have, there is a lot of misinformation in this thread. Just ask or read before making any transactions.
