Not sure if this has been mentioned but Vegas.com have a good offer at present, with a few more days to run.

Basically purchase a show or attraction, I did Eiffel tower at $13 then you receive a $50 code off a further purchase, keep doing that each day until the offer ends.

So my wife and I both have accounts have each pocketed Eiffel tower tix, Tenors of Rock show, High Wheel with drinks package and a couple of other shows and have spent about $40 each.

Check the dates of the offer in the T&c's.

Cheers Dan - any good deals for Caesars properties knocking about? I’m likely to be Diamond so plan to save some cash not paying the resort fees

Right now Caesars properties have a cyber promotion running. For example: Harrahs and Flamingo from $32, Ballys from $34 and Paris from $53. That's the good thing beeing Diamond that you don't have to pay the resort fees .

Do you play Wynn Slots Stuie ?

Gems for rooms are reasonable for a lot of June dates....around 2500 gems a night.
Plenty of time to start and earn completely free rooms...no resort fees or anything to pay.

ohh i might look at, cheers brats!
Were still ok for rooms in any mgm hotel and most of the caesars comp'd , but would'nt mind staying at the wynn ! best i get onto the slots!


I went twice to Vegas this year, but on 1st Oct, i dropped from Platinum down to Pearl with MGM as my tier credits sucked...
ie: i took more money than ever in June and blew it all, yet the tier credits earned was super low!
So when we got to Vegas on 1st Oct, tier credits had reset, i stayed as Plat whilst there, but on the day we left (5th), i changed to Pearl !

So i figured, my future offers aren't gonna be as good as before (average $300FP/RC + suites) ...
WRONG ! My offers are better ?! $400 FP & 400 RC + suites (M Bay = Media suite / sky view pent / 2bedroom panaramic) ...
They still wont give me cheap tickets to see Bros at the Mirage though !

Might try spending $1 a day in there slots just to see if i get even better offers ! hehe ! guess i am either lucky, or the casino's can spot a sucker a mile off!

We are flying LHR to MIA , drive upto Orlando and hang there for 6 nights, then drive to FLL to catch a ryanair flight to Vegas for 7 nights , then do LAX - LHR home....

Using Virgin , econ out, prem return , done via airmiles + 2-4-1 voucher for the Virgin Atlantic Rewards+ credit card...


If u want to know how to get a 2-4-1 airmiles voucher really quickly (based on having the rewards+ credit card which cost £180 a year), drop me a PM , not something i want to shout on here...

We booked our March trip to Vegas using miles and companion flight total cost was £540.

We have also just booked through Virgin for our October trip to LA, San Fran and Vegas...again used airmiles so total paid for flights £480.

We have the Virgin Atlantic CC...but not the one with £180 yearly fee.
Stuie, does you tip for getting the 2 for 1 airmiles voucher quickly also work with the standard Virgin Card ?

Brats64

Wow..looks like people aren’t happy about the Wynn slots game after the latest upgrade.
It’s going to be a lot harder now getting the VIP points to maintain and reach next levels due to reducing points awarded for collecting chests, spinning wheels and completing scratchers.
I paid a small amount last week to get to level 2 so I can book rooms when our dates are released.I chose to pay a little now, as I knew it would be easy to maintain level 2 by just collecting chests and spinning wheel each day.Now everyone will have to risk millions trying to complete scratchers to achieve levels..guess it’s been done to “ make” people pay in game to maintain levels or level up.

@Brats
Yeah it does, but u would need a high limit on the card..
My CC limit is £10k , so my single purchase of £9100 + usual monthly spend (i use the CC for everything, inc paying household bills, council tax, u name it, i dont use the bank card, and wife uses the CC for diesel)..
So i did around £10700 spend in 1 month, got me the 2-4-1 and over 15k airmiles.


On the free virgin card, as u need to spend £20k to get the 2-4-1 , based on your limit will determine how long it would take u to get the voucher !

Its not doing anything naughty, its understanding a rule, and working a technicalaity ! : D

Yeah we hit the 20,000 spend for this last year, and used that free extra flight for next March trip.
We tend to put all holidays on card, so as you say, it doesn’t take too long to hit the required spend.
Limits only £5000 which is plenty high enough for our needs usually, but may change car soon, so might have to look into increasing limit for that purchase.
You must be luckier than me with Mlife room offers..we only started playing enough a couple of years ago to be given comped rooms.Each year since we definitely have played more coin through the slots, but each time new offers appear they are worse than the previous offers.
