I play more in Atlantic City, recently Caesars monthly offers have been including a $100 one use food comp good at a few restaurants or for Room Service. Mrs. Blade and I normally have a romantic in room dinner with the coupon.
Just back from Harrahs Tahoe and they asked me if I had gotten the $100 celebration coupon yet. I said although I made Diamond last year, I haven't quite made it this year as yet. They said let us check and see if it prints out for you. It did and I now have to save it for a nice dinner. I finished off the 500 tier I still needed for Diamond the next day. I should have hubby check to see if he has the coupon available for the celebration dinner, he probably won't make Diamond this year, but he did last year and is Diamond until March 2014.
That's what I'm trying to find out also. I hope so. I don't know why they are giving out the $100 Celebration coupon before you earn Diamond in 2013 if you are Diamond from 2012 play. I'll probably use the coupon I have in August in LV. Then I'll ask to see if I get another one. If anyone is Diamond from 2012 play, but doesn't plan on earning the 15,000 tier points this year, I'd ask to have them see if a coupon prints out for you.
To confirm my experience, achieving diamond in 2012 (prior to new TR program) by earning 11K TR pts earned a $100 'birthday' dinner certificate. Achieving diamond in 2013 (Diamond Aspiration Lvl 1 in new TR program) by earning 15K TR pts earns a $100 celebration dinner certificate. Both can be redeemed at TR desk or through your host who will make the res and have the cert ready for you when you arrive at the restaurant of your choice.
I have not reached diamond again this year. When were in Laughlin a couple of months ago we were told that I had a $100 Diamond food comp available. This month when we were at the Quad there was a listing of where it could be used in Las Vegas. I asked for mine, thinking we would use it for the Sterling Brunch and they printed a slip that is valid till March 2014. I was cautioned not to lose it as it could not be reissued. BTW we didn't go to the brunch and hope it will continue even with the change at Ballys Steakhouse.
