Room Comp Redemption

I have TWO planned visits to LV this year.

One at end of April and other late September , and wish to use my 'free' Room/Freeplay/Resort Credit offers on my FIRST trip with very limited play on this specific trip as i intend to do more food/shows/ sightseeing than any hardcore gambling.

will be stayiny at NYNY 3 nights and RIO 3 Nights.

I have Free Room / $350 slot play and $400 Resort Credit with MGM and Free Room /$200 Slot Play/$100 RC at RIO.

Can anyone tell me if my future offer on my booking on my second trip in September will be removed or reduced if I dont gamble enough on my first run and only just take the 'freebies' and run ??

I intend to only coin-in a thousand or so dollars at each property during full stay length on slots and only play roulette at each property for an hour or so max each day at approx $ 25 per spin.

Anyone have any advice on whether this will hinder my future trip offers.

Would i be better to NOT use my comps at all on the first trip ?

I would use them while you have them.  I have not seen a casino remove an offer once it has been given.  As long as you play some , I would expect your offers to continue

I'm betting (lol) that your Free Play and Resort Credit is time limited to the dates of your offer, so you might as well use them.   I doubt that using Free Play in and of itself affects future offers unless you don't play any beyond that.  

(That used to be frequently told about in Trip Reports, long ago.  Folks actually did the check-in at each hotel where they had FP offers, used the FP only.  Some never even darkened the door of the room; some did and 'messed up' the bed to make it look occupied.  Some returned to check out, some checked out by phone.  I always wondered whether their future offers were affected.  Perhaps any who did that will tell of their experience.)

You might consider playing your thousand coin-in at each property on a single day, consolidated session hours if you can.   Is your roulette play separate from the thousand planned coin-in?  

I think you've picked good properties to stay and play to extend your money and hope for subsequent offers.  More coin-in would be expected at Bellagio, for example.  I predict more subsequent offers.  Whether as generous, who can say?

And, dont' forget to swipe your card every day in case there are 'bonus' things going on, e.g. 2x plus points, offers etc. 

As always, JMHO.

Good luck!!!

Do you have both trips booked? Once booked it is unlikely that you will lose the offer. However, if you have not booked yet it is more likely that the offer could change. 

The amount of play will likely affect future offers so the next batch of offers you get might not be as good. 

Generally speaking many would advise that when you gamble you don't gamble to earn offers. Just stick to your budget and play how you play. Don't increase your gambling budget just to try to get more offers. You would be better off just increasing your hotel budget and paying for that room "out of pocket".
