The Hi Matthew promo at the D and Circa is for real.
Admittedly, it feels a little strange walking up to a slot booth and saying, “Hi Matthew.” You think they’re going to look at you like you have three heads. But I’ve done this several times without any issues.
The promo is good twice lifetime at the D and Circa, but only once per day. You receive one $25 matchplay chip. Just walk up to the booth and say, “Hi Matthew,” or ask, “Is the Hi Matthew promo still going?”
And as long as you’re doing this promo, you might as well hit the D boarding pass promo and the El Cortez boarding pass promo. The D gives you two $25 matchplays if you show them a Southwest boarding pass within 24 hours of arriving in town. I think this is good each time you fly in, but I haven’t confirmed that.
Show any boarding pass and the El Cortez will give you $25 matchplay, a free drink, and a wheel spin for $10-$1,000 in freeplay ( usually $10). You can’t do the El Cortez MRB coupons and boarding pass offer in the same day; it’s one offer per day per person.
If you combine all the offers, you have $125 in matchplays , $10 in freeplay, and a free drink.
It’s a little walking to hit all three casinos, but worth about $70. Even if you skip El Cortez, you’ll have $100 in matchplays, worth about $48. Plus, you can also use the Members Reward Book for various downtown offers.
