US – where to spend a week before a weekend in Vegas? Hi all! I’m heading to Vegas for a girls trip the first weekend of October (never been before, not a crazy party crew). I need to use some PTO the week beforehand, so I would love to head out West from where I live on the East Coast about a week beforehand.

If I ordered a ring online from the US shipped to Canada, paid tax on it on arrival, proposed, and my fiancée travels back to the US, does she declare that? It was originally ordered from the US, so US taxes (AND Canada taxes) were already paid, right? And the receipt would show it’s from a US company shipped to Canada. Or am I misunderstanding? I’m not asking about “can you get away with smuggling stuff”, I’m asking the actual legal reality of it. submitted by /u/crimeo

LPT: Women’s US size 8 shoe is the same as a men’s US size 6.5/7, and a youth US size 6/7. You can often find nearly identical youth and women’s shoes, where the youth sizes cost half as much.

Air France let us onto a plane with our purchased tickets, then pulled us off citing, “we can’t find your tickets”, sent our two (empty) seats direct to our home town in North Carolina, USA, then stranded us in Paris during the Olympics. Now nobody is responding to our request for reimbursement. What can we do here? Our original flight was out of Glasgow on a Saturday in August with British Airways, booked through American Airlines. We got a “flight cancelled” notification at 4am, and that we had to drive to Edenborough to fly out the next morning instead with Air France. When we got there, we had some issues getting onto the connecting…
