PALMS
More info about their April promotions I talked about in my last blog.
Tuesdays double promo has a welcome option. If you earn 300 points, you can choose either the free movie ticket or car wash. But if you earn 600 points, you will see two places to touch on the kiosk screen and two vouchers will spit out. Each voucher gives you a choice between a free movie ticket or a free car wash. So, you can either get one of each or two of the same, i.e., 2 movie tickets.
Other details about the Thursday gas gift card promotion: Different than in previous versions before the Palms became a Stations property, there is no carry-over provision. You can only get gas cards for the points you earn that same day. The gift card requirements are for base points. However, you do not have to redeem the points so they remain in your point bank to use for cash, free play, or comps.
ELLIS ISLAND
Ellis Island has just released some details about their casino-wide anniversary party Saturday, April 14, celebrating “50 Years of Ellis.” The festivities will include giveaways on the casino floor and in the karaoke lounge, drink specials in the bars and dinner specials in the restaurant, including the original bowl of chili and ham sandwich combo available back in 1968. Their brewery will release a 50th Anniversary Golden Lager April 2 to commemorate the milestone. A collector’s edition anniversary $5 chip will also be available at their gaming tables throughout the remainder of 2018.

Interesting Read
Think the lottery is never an advantage play? Read this article. It’s long but was fascinating to me for many reasons, the main one that reinforces my belief that successful gambling is never easy. It takes intense effort. Fun but work!
Gallows Humor
I regularly shop at the 99-Cent store – probably not shocking information to anyone who knows me at all. The other day I nearly got run over in the parking lot of one of these stores. Brad and I decided that if that ever happened it wouldn’t be a happy event, of course, but it might be an “appropriate” way for me to exit this planet.
I love the Dollar Tree.
