If you’re an LVA MRB coupon-crazed scuffler like me, you’re probably chomping at the bit waiting for this year’s coupon book, which will be available in a couple of weeks.
Most of us don’t have a problem with the delay early in the year. Myself, I was in Vegas in December (and gave away my unused coupons to a bartender at Downtown Grand). I won’t return until the Super Bowl in February.
But what about those of you coming between now and when the books arrive? Hang on, Uncle Bobby’s gonna give you some ideas to keep you scuffling, munching high or low, whatever your taste.
First up are the good folks at American Casino Guide, who’ve gotten their 2024 online coupons out, so you can snag them right now. They’re a great complement (did someone say “stacking”?) to the MRB and my fave is the Downtown Grand matchplay!
ACG has 14 Vegas coupons, including a 2-for-1 burger at Binion’s, 2-for-1 entree at Four Queens’ Magnolia (I get two entrees and take the second for a snack), and a discount at the Mob Museum. (See if you can find the Speakeasy bar. Easey peasy.)
Also big money! Use Jean Scott’s Southwest boarding-pass matchplay strategy at
Golden Gate and the D. “Mention Mike” at Circa for another. They’ll give you either a $50 coupon or two $25 matchplay chips.
At El Cortez, you can also get a matchplay; it’s less money, but you get some slot free play and a free drink.
That’s five totaling over $200 with an EV of over $100. Nice!
Heck, there are so many sign-up opportunities on Fremont. Vegas virgins can do those now and when the MRB comes out and you’re coming back in town (you are coming back to Vegas more than once this year, right?) you can do them too.
Then there’s the Plaza’s slot tournaments every Wed., Thur., and Fri. and the Downtown Grand’s Thur. VP and BJ tournaments. So many casinos, so little time.
Still looking for something to do? Wander over to the Arts District downtown and all the cool antique, clothes, and knickknack shops, brewpubs, and even the Gamblers Book Store. Or head past El Cortez to some cool bars like Container Park, Atomic Liquor, and the Pirate bar.
There’s even a great vinyl shop down Fremont. Yes, vinyl is cool again. Are you?
lva has a new blue collar hero sounds like likes to eat gamble loves bargains and most of all bails out my main man tony for not having the books ready for people that likes the best vegas has to offer for half price thank u tony and uncle bob i will pick 3 books jan 22

What is the southwest boarding pass matchplay strategy?? Thanks!
My friend is in Vegas right now and tried this again.
The D gave him 2 $25 matchplay chips.
Golden Gate said “that’s only at the D, not here.”
When he mentioned “Mike” at Circa, the guy gave him 1 $25 matchplay chip.
And, at the Cortez, he rec’d $10 freeplay, a $10 matchplay chip, and a comp drink ticket.
Its mention Matthew not Mike. btw all the folks @ Club 1 @ Circa were very nice when I couldn’t remember and started with Mike they kept giving me hints like ” Stafford? QB? ” very cool . Their Sports Book is insanely great and I am finding things like being able to do no bets on the Super Bowl ( get a sheet for expl) or they have Kentucky Derby options before anyone. Then there’s 8 East… For me the only problem is the noise as I wear earplugs in casino.
At the D and GGate within 24 hours of arrival, show the players club your SWest boarding pass (paper or phone pic)….they will give you 2 $25 matchplay chips.
I haven’t tried the “mention Mike” at the Circa, but since they’re all owned by same person, it’s probably the same there too.
UPDATE:

Also ” Say hi to Mathew.” works at Circa. I had already gotten the Mathew/Mike free play at The D and it was supposed to be a once in forever thing but they gave it to me again at Circa. Double Dip!
Lets keep rocking those match plays ! and then in MRB there are more for the Plaza, The D, Golden Gate and Downtown Grand, you can also pull another $10 MP from American casino Guide.
