I wrote to Caesars. Here are the shows you can see being Diamond and it looks like it starts right away!

Thank you for contacting the Flamingo! Yes! I’m delighted to tell you that the show benefits are back! As in the past, you have one benefit redemption per calendar month. For your convenience I have listed all the show benefits below:

Wow – I was one who complained to Caesars Entertainment about taking away the show tickets. I purposely book a week over 2 months to see 2 shows being a Diamond player. When was this reinstated as I am headed there at the end of the month.

way out to the mall? I think?

A very good promotion is in effect at Stations: for June, play on Monday or Tuesday earns food comps, at the “outlying” casinos at least (i.e., Fiesta Henderson and Santa Fe). They may be doing this at other Stations locations as well (for instance, I think I saw it at Aliante), but it’s a very recent development so I recommend that you check out the casino websites. What is unusual about this promo is how much you get: 300 points gets you a $5 food voucher. Stations is now $1 coin-in=3 points, so this is a 5% (!!) rebate. The best part is that a player can earn up to five $5 vouchers/day. So you can play $500 on negative VP and get a $25 food comp, or play $2000 on positive VP and get the same. And the 99.8% and 99.9% games earn points at the regular rate, so they might be a better play than the +EV games for the purposes of this promo. A couple playing for about 45 minutes can earn a nice dinner for two, or about 20 minutes of play can get enough for a buffet.
The frequent double points days at Stations also elevate the 99.8/.9% games almost to the level of FPDW or FPJW. The trend for Stations over the years has been to be very aggressive with promos in the summer, since they are fighting over a diminished customer base that time of year.

The Earl of Sandwich! Woohoo! My wife and I love this place. We hit it every time we go to Downtown Disney on our Florida trips. Definitely now on our list for our August trip to the the Palms. Thanks for the info Jean!
Hopefully, we’ll run into while we are in town. You guys are our Frugal Inspiration.
