    There are times you might not want to be "found" by your casino, however, as if just piddling around and you don't want to blow your average. But, yes, the overall sentiment is correct. If you are gonna play, get the bennies.

    To some, lowest cost is the goal, regardless. Value to us is not necessarily zero or lowest cost.

    1.) Paying more than $3 for a Fountain drink in a restaurant.
    To this effect, is why we go to Buffet (Fountain included in cost) or order WATER. (free!)

    2.) Over-priced food on The Strip.
    Seriously, I can get just as good quality food Off-Strip for ½ the price!

    Rooms. I go for the comped room at the best hotel offered, as we spend little time in it.

    Luggage, which is why we fly SW.

    Water. I have no problem paying for a drink when I want one because my drink of choice is Sangria.

    Definitely hate paying for coffee the most. Can't handle no coffee maker in the room then 5 bucks downstairs.

    Typically solve the problem by sitting down for morning blackjack

    One of the things I like about Palms is the coffee they serve on the floor is good. Head down, sit at a slot and within a few minutes a cocktail waitress comes around. At Bellagio, I've sat a a slit over an hour and never had a cocktail waitress approach. Service has always been very goid at Cosmo too.

    Ain't that the truth. We wait longer at Bellagio than anywhere else.
