Palms Bonus Points

The way >it is worded, it would seem that the 2X points are for everyone. As
always, you are limited >to 40,000 bonus points in any one day.

My apologies to Scot Krause, and anyone else who posted that you MUST have it
say so on your November mailer for you to be eligible to receive 2X points on
certain days. I have spoken with a couple of local friends who don't get the
mailer, and they did NOT receive double points on MWF, the double point days
on my mailer.

I also spoke today with a friend of mine in the Palms' Marketing Dept. She
told me that they are "trying something new" this month. So, if you don't
receive the mailer, you only get single points all month. Sorry again for the bad
info!

I am at a bit of a loss as to why the Palms Marketing Dept. would take a
chance on alienating (possibly high-rolling) out-of-towners by only allowing them
single points, on days locals who get mailers are getting double points. Or do
non-locals receive some kind of mailer too, something that includes bonus
point days?

No problem. This is a tough task anyway, with casinos constantly
changing their minds up until the last minute, but I wasn't sure how
they were going to do it since the mailers sounded the same as always.
Thanks for the info. Glad I didn't put it in my listings after-all.

I spoke with their Database Marketing Dept. yesterday. The bonus days are
only for locals not for those of us out of Las Vegas. We receive
(theoretically), mailers with discounts on rooms, etc.

When I mentioned that I get these anyway, there was really no response. I
prefer points I can use to over-eat, over-drink, etc.
