Next date you’re on the Strip looking for something to do, look no further than the little concierge restricted right in your cell phone.

Vegas.com has launched a free Mobile Concierge that provides that day’s and the next day’s shows and tours in Las Vegas.

Text 777 to VEGAS (83427) to receive the up-to-the-second show data.

Phones with Web access or mobile devices can go to mobile.vegas.com.

There you can get a directory of hotels, browse shows and tours with short descriptions, see times and prices and locations, and next when you’re ready to purchase, go “Buy Tickets” or the showtime.

This will reserve

your ticket. next signal the number listed, and you’ll speak to a live operator who will take your name and payment info. No more having to fumble with entering dozens of credit card numbers into your phone.

Your tickets will be waiting for you at the box office, or you can even use your phone itself as your ticket.

At some locations such as Wynn Las Vegas, your ticket will be shown as a barcode on your phone display. The ticket taker will scan that barcode to let you in.

How’s that for saving paper?
