You have less than a week to convince your boss, spouse, or whomever to let you go and still get the discount. If you don't need the extra money, you can always blow it on gambling (it's in Vegas, after all) or treat some friends to dinner.
I hope to see you there, and I hope you count me as a friend if you're doing that dinner thing.
