No Rincon in September

[Alan Mendelson]

I won't be going to Harrah's Rincon in September, except for maybe one visit on one day.

My offers just came in for the month, and frankly, they suck.

My monthly free play cash back is what I expected and what is normal for me: $295.

But my weekly offers suck: $80 per week. It costs me about $40 in gas to make the trip there.

My weekly food offers have also been cut by 40% but that doesn't matter since I rarely eat there.

There are some daily offers that have come in the mail in the last week and they are down as much as $110 per day -- again not making a daily trip worthwhile.

My best one day combination where I can combine offers would give me a total of $115 plus $295 for a total of $410. And I will make that one-day trip sometime during the month. But that's all.

After I use the monthly cash back of $295, it appears my next best day for combining offers will be worth $195 -- less the $40 in gas.

The point is this: free play is good, but now, when my offers from Caesars in LV are worth $1,000+ it makes more sense for me now to forgo the quick day trips to Rincon and save up for a "better free play value" at Caesars in Vegas.

I'm thinking of taking the Valley View express bus down to there and playing at VV for a while and then taking the city bus up to Harrah's to get some TR credit. Since there are like 4 casinos in a 15 mile stretch or so, have you ever just went to one after another?

Looks like several casinos used to frequent my area for pickups but now it is just Valley View and a Pechanga shuttle that picks up the next city over.

At least Caesar's is giving you some good deals. Hoping to bank some TR points for when I go to Vegas maybe early next year would like to hit the Gordon Trifecta (Gordon Ramsey Pub, BurGR, and Gordon Ramsay Streak)

Well hope you win either place you decide to go to.
