MS Offers

I received an e mail notifying me of double points being given this Saturday. I also received a promo in the mail notifying me of a nice free play offer good only this Sunday.
  I find it interesting that these offers are being given for Sat./Sun. the busiest days of the casino week. Curious as to why these offers are not being given for weekdays when business is slow? Obviously I don't know marketing strategies. Anyone want to venture an opinion ?

Especially for this Saturday, when according to the hotel reservation system,
they are sold out. I got the double points offer, but my free play is for next
Saturday/Sunday, but is not particularly nice. It's down from the $75 I've been
getting recently, and the $100-125 I had been getting up until last month.

We usually go during the week, not on weekends. So I wonder if they're
counter-marketing customers: sending offers when they usually are NOT there.
Then they can say, "Well, we sent you offers, you just didn't use them".

So far I haven't received any reduction but I was idle for Aug.-Sept. and only started to play again this month when it counts towards tier renewal. If I start to get reductions then I'll stay with AC.

I also only go during the week. Perhaps we've sat near each other ?
