    I do not know how long they have been doing this, but it's nice to see the Golden Gate shrimp cocktail (a perm fixture before) off the list since it's now like $2.99 or so.

    I used to look for this list every month, but they seem to have been doing alot of cutting and pasting the past year or so. Margaritas at Casino Royale are gone for example. Otherwise same items every month.

    Isn't the steak dinner $8.99 now, and unless you print out a coupon it makes it $7.99?

    I think we were charged $8.99?? I was just there this week and that is with the coupon. You have to take your club card to kiosk and print it off. One coupon is good for the entire table.

    Considering what some restaurants charge, $2.99 for a shrimp cocktail is still a pretty good deal. Still miss the old days when you could get one for 99 cents though.

    You're correct .. even WITH the coupon .. it's 8.99 now ..

    Also, there Tropicana rebate is wrong as it was changed a month ago .. you now get 25% back the day of, 25% back the next day and 50% the 3rd day .. so instead of a 30 day wait to get your other 50%, it's now a 3 day promo ..

    LVA getting lazy!

    What??? Argh.

    If it wasn't for the 9/6 DDB Quick Quads calling my name and the beer coming with it, I definitely would rethink bothering with the "special".

    Per the LVA, price is still effectively $7.99. However, you now need to run $1 through a machine in order to print a $1 off coupon. So yes, there is a little more work required to get the special at $7.99. I'm guessing most people are going to put in some play anyway while they wait to be seated. Just need to remember to print the coupon from the Kiosk.

    Yup, I re-read it and noticed that .. when we signed up for our players card, we went to the kiosk to get our free play and printed the coupon .. then played AFTER that .. DOH!

    Just got back from Vegas. The deal for the steak meal is $8.99, what you do is get a slotcard. Then swipe it at the kiosk and get your coupon. We didn't have to play a $1 for the discount. Hope this helps anyone out.

    I looked at their website and all they say is the first $200 is on us, see players club for more details. Do you have to lose $200 to get $200 in FP (like how the Cosmo is, lose $100 to get $100)? Can I just play $100 there as well and get $100 back?

    Say I lose $100 on Monday, ill get $50 back that day. Stop in Tues get $25 and same for Wed, $25? Sound about right?
