Brad and I are leaving for Harrah’s Tahoe on the 28th, a little too early for me to get many of the October monthly mailers. So this is a good time to remind you of other good resources where you can go for comprehensive coverage of Vegas promotions. Each Sunday Scot Krause lists many of the best Vegas values for the coming week plus those that are on-going. He also maintains the list of Players Club Bonus Points right here on this site. In addition, you can check individual websites of casinos where you might want to play.
Another frugal resource I highly recommend: Vegas4Locals has many free printable coupons for locals and visitors alike and an extensive list of “Free Things To Do and See in Las Vegas.”
CZR News
Here is a great new option for high-level CZR players who have earned a free trip. Although these details mention only the Seven Stars Retreat, this is also an option for the lower Diamond trip. A welcome change from the hassle of going through the unbearably slow casino travel booking program.

We will be at Harrah’s Tahoe until October 3. If you see us there during the slot tournament or at a video poker machine, be sure to stop and say “hi.”
I tried looking for some links that explain the Senior Silverton casino info.
On their site, I thought I read that the 50% off buffet was only available for three tiers and not the lowest one. I haven’t been to Vegas since last December and might be making plans for late November or early December. I tried the link for Scott Krause but couldn’t find specifics for Silverton. Any links or info would be appreciated.
Thanks, MO
Free play better than reimbursement? I don’t think so.
Not so fast Kevin. You are correct in that “no decent video poker” which is true, however, Tahoe is still one of the cheapest places for achieving 7* status if that is your objective.
This might be blasphemy, but I would recommend that you don’t play a single hand of video poker while you’re there. It’s just too nice up there right now. Perhaps the perfect time of year to go–still great weather, but no summer crowds. Be a tourist! This is also a great time of year to drive around the lake (if you have a rental car), because the snows close the west shore highway at Emerald Bay.
Aside from that, there’s no decent video poker up there anyway, as the best you’ll find is 9/6 JOB at Harrah’s–a losing game.
Hi Jean,
Try to give us a Reno report as well, as I think you would like Grand Serra & Peppermill.
