How do I avoid parking fees in Las Vegas?

One of the best ways to avoid parking is to skip the car altogether; if you're flying in for vacation, don't rent a car. Instead, rely on using a taxicab, car share like Uber or Lyft, or even walking along the strip to get you to where you need to be. There is also public transportation throughout Vegas.
