Let's Get Together

Many of you have written to ask whether Brad and I would ever be at some public function where people could meet us – to exchange coupons, to have me autograph your Frugal books, or just to chat about frugal gambling. 

Well, this coming Saturday, September 19, is just such an opportunity. Since we both are feeling better - finally over the flu (or whatever we had), we plan to be at the monthly luncheon at the Gold Coast buffet organized by vpFREE. The group meets in front of the buffet and enters together promptly at 11:30 a.m.  

Haven’t signed up to vpFree yet? No problem, you can subscribe at vpFREE-subscribe@yahoogroups.com.   This is free site. Duh! Maybe you guessed that by the name! I predict that if you play video poker, you will wonder how you ever got along without the information you find there. And even if you only play slots, you will find it a good resource about slot clubs, comps and other related subjects.  

Hope to see a lot of you all Saturday.    Bring your coupons and be prepared to make some new frugal friends!

Just a reminder about the Gaming Authors Meet-and-Greet this Sunday, March 9, from 1:00-2:30 p.m.  in the Sound Trax Lounge at Palace Station. I will be there, as will be Steve Bourie, Scot Krause, and Henry Tamburin. Mystery book writer Donna Foley Mabry will also be attending to meet fans of her Las Vegas-based mystery book series. First will be a general Q+A session for the whole group, followed by time for one-on-one discussion with the authors, and the chance to buy their books and/or get your previously purchased ones autographed. 

Admission is FREE, and there will be FREE drawings for door prizes, FREE giveaways and a special coupon sheet for all attendees.  Brad and I always look forward to seeing old frugalite friends and making new ones.  

Also, remember that you set the clocks forward Saturday night.

Meeting Other Frugalites

Brad and I always like to meet kindred gambling souls. If you see us in a casino, please stop and say “Hello.” We are always glad to stop playing – it rests our eyes – and chat a few minutes with old and new friends alike.

However, I am always happy when we have a chance for a public appearance that will give us more time to connect with other players, and I want to give you advance notice of one of these on March 9. It is a meet-and-greet from 1-2 p.m., in the Sound Trax Lounge at Palace Station. Joining me will be American Casino Guide author Steve Bourie; "Vegas Values" author Scot Krause; and prolific author of blackjack- and other gambling-related material Henry Tamburin.

All four of us will participate in a 30-minute session of answering questions from audience members on a variety of gambling topics. Then there will be time for you to talk to the authors on a one-to-one basis. We all will be happy to autograph books you already own. Plus, there will be a variety of gambling resources available for purchase, including the newest edition of Tax Help for Gamblers -- just in time, if the thought of April 15 is putting you in a state of confusion and dread about reporting your gambling earnings.

Admission to this event is free and there will be some door prizes.  Hope to see many of you there!
