    Any opinions on the best reward for a free drink that's out there? I'm using two of my three available rewards for free play, and wanted to use my last one on something relatively cheap, LP-wise. I'm not looking for anything that I'd have to use as part of a sit-down meal.

    Thanks!

    I would do 1 drink at Lily in Bellagio, the 2-for-1 at Parlor bar in Mirage, or 2-for-1 in Hit, Monte Carlo. I would say Harvest but you can only go during a certain hour, which is happy hour anyway. I can't plan that precisely in Vegas!

    Also consider getting a drink reward where you will be spending time anyway - kind of a pain to deal with the MLife desk just for a drink.

    You can use the NFI BOGO at 17,500. It is really a $35 voucher and can be used for drinks, happy hour apps, etc. Can use for 1 or more people, so not really a bogo

    For 50K the $50 credit at the Bar at Times Square (NYNY) goes a long way during their happy hour from 3-7. I have used this on my last three trips.

    You staying at an MGM hotel? I think the undisputed king of the free drink rewards is probably the $50 bar credit at the piano bar in NYNY. They don't advertise this, but one side of the bar is open to the casino floor so you don't actually need to stay in the piano bar section.

    Whiskey Tasting at the Monte. though it's 22,500. But it is THE best. also 2 for 1 signature drink at same Hit bar and lounge, for 5000. The wife and I did both of these a couple years ago. It's a pretty nice bar to.

    The $50 NYNY piano bar can also be used during happy hour. At night if you go inside there is a cover charge . Can be up to $20. But like fugs said you don't need to go in to use

    Yup, Hit whiskey tasting or $50 at Times Square. Be advised, if you're doing the whiskey tasting solo they give you several FULL shots of whiskey, don't go in there and try to down them, you need to take your time or you're going to be blitzed :blink:

    One more plug for the Whiskey Tasting. Four of us went last September and my girl and I are going back again in May.

    I've got enough points to cover both rewards, so I bought both the whiskey tasting and the $50 dueling pianos bar tab. I'll play it by ear (no pun intended) to see which one I actually use, though I'm leaning towards the whiskey tasting based on some of these comments.

    Thanks everyone!

    I've always done the free drinks at Bellagio - Lily and Hyde (they might not offer Hyde any more since they probably got tired of seeing cheesy Myvegas coupons in a nice place), but those were basically $20 drink values for 10,000 gold, and you don't need to be staying at MGM resorts. Hyde was also inside the fountains where you look out and see the water show, and there's no cover before late night.

    the $50 drink credit at NYNY is also pretty good if youre staying at an MGM, which others have mentioned. Did that for an NFL sunday one year.

    How recent was this picture? I know the reward currently says there are 3 drinks. I'm hoping some folks still get the 4 like the first time I redeemed it. :)

    So this is actually a better buy than the $25 credit (35,000 LP) for NFI?

    We did the whiskey tasting a couple of weeks ago. It was well worth the points. Have not bothered with any other drink rewards because they are mostly buy one get one.
