Does anyone have an email addy for wynn/encore?

You could try roomreservations@wynnlasvegas.com

They don't seem to have an email direct to the red card people or the hosts on their website.

I always have enough 2 for 1 coupons to never pay full price for buffets..anyway I am rambling now.

Where do you get all the 2 for 1 coupons from? I know about the ACG and LV Advisor, even if I can't remember which buffets they are for, but am I missing any as I thought there were only a couple of buffet coupons in those?

Luci, there are a lot of 2 for 1 buffet coupons in those books, but only a few of them are on the strip.

Thats where I get them from, plus the odd one or two in mags etc. Like pebbles says most are off strip but we always have a car and drive to wherever the coupons are for.

Had some great buffets off strip.

Silverton is good and also liked suncoast

Main Street Station downtown is also quite good - gorgeous room too...Gold Coast used to be great but I think it was pebbles who said it's been reduced in size and not as good anymore. Have meant to try Red Rock or Green Valley Ranch as they get good reviews and we really like the coffee shops at those so we assume the food at the buffet will be similar quality.

Agreed, main street is good. Havent been to GC in a while and never been to RR or GV. Will def make an effort this time.

There are 24 buffet coupons in the LVA alone. plus the $50 off at Palms.

In the ACG there are about 12 buffet coupons plus other dining coupons so between them there is more tham enough for a 2 week stay.

We only eat morning and evening.

Or instead of 2-4-1 coupons, places like 4 Queens downtown (like Ellis Island) have Prime Rib meal for $7.99 when you join their Players Club.

Just remembered that Sam's Town was actually pretty decent though it's been several years...but they have themed nights like mexican, italian, etc...so if you hit it on a day which isn't serving a type of food you like it may not be ideal...it's pretty basic food, but good value.

And photome, do you have the 2009 LVA book yet? I wasn't sure how they were doing the Red Rock and GVR vouchers - they list them separately but it seems to me they were on the same voucher last year along with several other Station casinos...so it was only one voucher. I can't remember if they were listed individually last year too or if they were shown as one?

No I havent got it yet, I will pick it up when i get there, who knows they may send me another one to . They were seperate last year, and listed seperately this year on the website. It maybe in the ACG they are listed together.

I mentioned suncoast earlier, I havent been there I meant sunset station.

IMO a lot of the off strip casinos have better buffets than on strip for less money.

Planet Hollywood offer of pay for 2 nights stay for 3. However they are really expensive for my dates at $359 for the weekend nights. I think the lowest rate I saw was $169
