I'm not sure why Caesars would offer it. It's not consistent with their marketing strategies.
Applies to 1 day only Sun-Thur. Minimum 3 day stay. Void where prohibited.
No. Make it for your entire stay (ok 4 night max Sun-Thur). They'll still make money. If people are staying at a hotel, they'll spend at least some money there everyday they're there. A room will be filled that might not be, one meal will be eaten there (at least coffee and a sandwich), and a little action in the casino. Since it might be too late to include it in the book for this year, make it a coupon that you have to print out. This way it only be used once and if the casino decides it's not a good fit for them (Not making money), it can be discontinued.

What about the Tropicana, SLS, M, South Point, etc, that are not your non-chain casinos? You never know what you'll get unless you ask?
