    I have a host, but before I embarrass myself, wanted to ask here.

    In Nov, I have an offer for 750 freeplay, was going to stay the 5th-7th.

    Then heading downtown to get all my free stuff.

    So, my quetion is, can I ask for another bonus and stay 4 days later? Checking
    in on the 9th and leaving the 11th? That offer is another 500 freeplay.

    Kinda worth staying a couple extra days if I can?

    Thanks for any info!

    If I read your question correctly, AFAIK, you cannot ask for the same comp twice, but if you HAVE comps with different offer codes, you can request them subject to the 72 hour gap rule.

    BTW, what you are asking about is not "double dipping". "Double dipping" (to my way of thinking) is taking two comps at two different properties simultaneously, as I did when I took comps at V/P and Harrahs and gave one room to my cousin.

    It was the last time that I will EVER do that. "Double dip" means double the amount of expected play if you plan to retain the same level of comps at both properties.

    "Kinda worth staying a couple extra days if I can?"

    Well, it depends on how well you do in the 5-6 days prior to the second FP offer.

    The real question is:

    How much will it cost you to get that other $500 in FP? I say that as I have had offers like that and eventually drop that $500 and another $1000 of my own. LOL!

    A lot of CET offers have two-night minimums.

    It is my experience that ALL CET offers that have free play have a two night minimum.

    Humm, thanks for that info. So I'll need to book two nights before heading to the airport. Glad you shared that with me!
    Thanks!

    You can try to book one night. If there's a minimum stay, the system should tell you at that point. But yeah, every CET offer that had throw-ins I've ever tried to book had a two-night minimum.

    I'l probably just cut one night off my downtown trip and stay one night, do the freeplay, then head out the next morning,
    even though I booked two nights.
    You guys were a big help!
