    Yes.

    I played VP at MSS on the morning of Wednesday 10/23. I went to a kiosk prior to playing.

    Then I played enough (more than enough) to get the one tier credit needed for a free breakfast or lunch buffet.

    I went back to the kiosk, printed the coupon and went to the lunch buffet.

    Another Vegas Message Boarder contributed a clever way to get the one tier credit with minimal risk. With video keno, you will need to play $5 to get one tier credit. He plays 20 quarters. I think it was on a 5 spot video keno. You are very likely to get some of the 20 quarters back—maybe even win. The worst that can happen is to lose every quarter. Then you got the buffet for $5, which is still a good deal.

    I think that I need to clarify that he was not playing 20 quarters on one hand. He was playing 20 separate 25 cent “cards”. That’s why you are likely to get some of the quarters back.

    You can also play 100 games at a nickel; or 500 at a penny depending on how much time needed to kill prior. :popcorn: BUT be sure to swipe first or all is for naught. Good luck.

    Worked for me at the Orleans 2 weeks ago. I started with a little bar top VP around 8 am before moving to the tables. I didn't pay any attention to credits, but got the free lunch buffet when I checked the kiosk later that morning. The particular kiosk shouldn't matter.

    Its variable depending on the game you play. The better the return of the VP game, the more coin-in it takes to earn 1 tier credit.

    Up-date: announced today at Main Street Station that starting in 2020 the Young at Heart promotion will be moved to Tuesdays . They did not elaborate but I assume it will move for all Boyd properties.

    This seems so ridiculous. After years of promoting this for Wednesdays, to change it to Tuesdays seems like a bait and switch. Confuse people for a while and force the staff at the B Connected counter to explain another change of the B Connected loyalty program... " Sorry sir, that promotion was yesterday... we changed it a while ago, didn't you get the memo?"

    :soapbox: :bang:
