Macau Pre-paid SIM with data - Best Option
This is not about punting/mongering but well it may help you attain the final objective of picking girls (including on wechat)
We are all so used to having our mobiles with us that not having a local sim is a nightmare and if its with a reasonably priced data plan theres nothing to beat it.
Read somewhere that a fellow monger went all the way to the ferry terminal to buy the 3G unlimited data sim @ HK$100 per day. That is steep.
I had done my research before going and it paid off so here goes.
You get the sim cards almost any place, including the conceirge at the Venetian. The are also available at the various phone shops opposite the WYNN/MGM (casino). The best bet is to take a CTM prepaid card for HK$/MOP100 which had HK$/MOP 100 credit. Once you have bought it see the code mentioned on the card to activate data plan which costs only 35$ for 1 week with 50mb data and also around 120 min free usage of CTM wifi where ever its available and 30 free local minute usage. So unless you want to watch videos this should easily suffice for 3-4 days after which you can once again re-load with a MOP50 voucher and re-activate the data plan. works out much cheaper than HK$100 per day. I was also able to use it with my blackberry handset (not for bbm & push mail) for surfing (using opera browser)/viber/whatsapp/google maps and all else I needed it.
Though most people now use samsung/iphone's I had a Blackberry handset/ For using the data plan on blackberry phone you will have to tweak the settings a lil. go to settings ->device-> advanced system settings -> TCP IP -> there check APN Settings enabled and in the column for APN enter ctmprepaid. This should get ur data started on blackberry handset.
As for punting my fav VFM place would be Hou Va near Royal hotel. Where else in Macau can you have a nice session for HK$510 for 1 shot :-) the Saunas were too pricy for me :-(
Enjoy n keep posting
