WARNING***Terrible's $100 coupon NO GOOD

As a side story. Yesterday I was checking in for our flight out of vegas (I'm at the airport right now waiting to board) and read through the list of coupons for 2011. I posted a response related to the M buffet (not happy about it) and read through some responses. I read about the Terribles coupon and had forgotten that I had printed out the coupon before leaving home. I figured I had a few hours to kill before meeting my wife for Christmas dinner at Garduno's and headed out to Terribles from the Orleans. I got in line at the players club, they took my coupon and told informed me of the rules. No problem, up to $100 freeplay for loses. I headed to the machines.
I had decided to use the $100 to try for a royal. I haven't hit one in over 10 years. I sat down, put in $100 and played .25, bonus poker at a flat top. I hit quads twice in the first 10 minutes. I decided if i got up $100 I would quit. Never quite got there. Bounced around for around 45 minutes, then the machine started to stall on me and wouldn't respond to my selections. I cashed out, still up $25 and moved to another machine. This one was not as kind and I was down to less than $15 when I hit 4 As. Back up again. I again bounced from $100-$125 for the next hour. Time was now running out. I had been playing for over 2 hours and was basically even. If i didn't "get my loss" soon, I would be unable to play through my freeplay. I cashed out my $100 and moved to a $1 machine near the cashier. Again, bonus poker. I played for around 15 minutes and was down to $10 when I hit 4 2s for $200. I played down to $200 even and cashed out.
Christmas dinner was on Terrible's. Thank you.
I'm Interested In Trying This Coupon Out. Very Rarely Do I Play VP & If I Do Its DW Nickles.
I'd Love To Play Dimes Or Quarters For A Change. How Do You All Keep Track Of How Much Your Up Or Down? I'm Still Alittle Blurry About This Lose $100 Then Get A Rebate Thing.
So For Instance Say I Somehow Manage To Keep Track Of The Amount Going In & Im At $80 Played And I'm Up $15, If I Play Another $20 In (Assuming I Dont Win Anything On It) Does That Mean I Dont Get A Rebate Because I Spent $100 But Won $15. ??

Another Question....Say I Manage To Lose $105 Dollars, I Then Goto The Players Club & They Put $100. On My Card That I Can Goto A Machine & Cash Out That $100? Making My Lose $5. ??
You just put $100 in a machine. When your credits are at zero, you've lost $100. If you cash out at anything, you don't get the rebate. You can't lose $105, because all you've put in is $100.

The rebate is in the form of $100 free play. You have to play it through -- you can't just cash it out.

But I'm pretty sure that you don't have to lose the entire $100 in one sitting. You could put $100 into a machine and cash out $50. Take that ticket to another machine later and cash out $10. Take that ticket to another machine and when you're down to 0, then you've lost $100 and can claim your rebate. Just be sure to claim your rebate (whatever it is) within 24 hours of the time you took your coupon to the club desk and they signed you in.
Correct, you don't have to lose $100 all on one machine to get the $100 in freeplay.

The simplest method, since people seem to be more confused than they should be about this promo, is as has been said: put 1 $100 bill into a machine. Play (on as many different machines as you like) until you reach your personal win goal or have no money left from that original $100. If you reach your win goal, cash out. If you lose the $100, use the $100 in freeplay.
I just renewed my membership. Where do I get this Terrible's coupon from? Thanks.
