When I drive my car after it hasn't been driven for a while, and I start slowing down- my car stalls. When I try to turn it back on, all you hear is the the engine trying to turn on but it won't for a good 15-20 seconds. After driving for a good 15 minutes or so, it stops with the stalling.

People said it could be the air filter, o2 sensor, spark plugs. I replaced all 3 and it still gives me the same problem.

I am really getting aggravated because I am sick of mechanics telling me what it is and being wrong. I do not want to spend any moremoney fixing this issue unless 100% certain. I need this fixed before memorial day weekend.

What should i do?

You have to pinpoint the problem before you go replacing any parts, this is typical for any repair. I would check the fuel and spark as the problem is occuring (first stall).

How long is "a while"? It could be a fuel issue caused by condensation getting into it.

Well i took it to the dealer and they mentioned my map sensor was reading high. I need to be below 1 volt and i was 1.55, they said i need a valve adjustment at least. But they r not sure if this will fix it

1.55 is really high. I would get a valve adjustment done.
