Anyone else planning to do The Great Race to Rewards?

Interesting to catch up on this thread...
Someone mentioned this will cost CET a bundle...but you must realize that the things CET allows you to use TR points for cost them a FRACTION of what you pay; therefore, if you figure that most people will not be able to run in & only put $5-10 in a casino then leave, they are almost certain to make money on this. And those that do a "flyby" will suffer w/ a huge hit on their ADT--looks like CET comes out awfully pretty.
I continue to giggle even tho I have seen correspondence over & over w/ CET executives that you simply need to opt in only once, many opt in everywhere "just in case"--if CET decides not to give someone credit, there really is no retribution; they have a disclaimer in the original rules.
Just hoping it all pays off.
I will be in Vegas next month (tho at Trop, so not very convenient to CET properties), w/ the kids after Xmas & w/ DH in March--figuring our meals should be well taken care of for those trips!
Ironically, the only offers I currently have in my TR account are from Laughlin!LOL But both our Jan & March rooms are fully comped.

I would not be surprised if they just say they changed their minds. In Reno the nice woman there said all the points should be in accounts by Halloween, so we shall see soon.

I never got the extra 500 points for spending $ (50 I think was required) in three venues at one hotel (Reno) in one week as they promised so I am skeptical.

It is not worth chasing down the 500 points but I suspect it could be a glimpse into the future. I hope I am wrong and keep thinking good thoughts.

vantzy, is this the promotion you are referring to? If I didn't receive extra points, I would follow up with CET.

Yup that is it. Perhaps one was not an eligible outlet but I ate there twice and bought some stuff at the gift shop. Who knows.

I will save my energy for the fight for the 60,000 points if they do not show up.

Right behind ya vantzy.

Well it's Oct.31, and nothing as of yet. I sure hope we haven't all been scammed.

What a fantastic promo! Thanks to all the fellow LVA members who helped out & posted all of the helpful info throughout the entire promo. I'm sure they'll never do this again, but we can hope.....
