You have got to be kidding!!!

#1

I think I have received the ultimate insult from Stations Casino. I thought my June mailer was pathetic, 1 offer for $5 free play, now I get this. 8 offers for free play spread over 2 days, for get this...$2 per instance. 2 other times for $2 free plays on 2 other days. Let's see, gas is about $2.70 a gallon and I'll burn about half of that getting there and back. I mean $20 free play is bad as it is, but spreading it over 10 time periods in a month is ridiculous! The only saving grace is 3 different days with 6X points. And no, I will not give them one penny until they realize that you can't run casino marketing with bean counters with MBA's.

Time to boycott Station - tell your friends, nothing will foster change faster than an empty casino

According to my stations mailer, when you play your first 7 offers, all remaining offers are doubled.

All of mine are $15 this month. So, the last 3 (though marked $15) should be $30.

I realize that sucks for smaller offers though. I'm not sure I like it all that much either, but hey, I'll take it anyway.

(btw, this is the way I've interpreted it, I haven't confirmed it with stations -- info on the back of your mailer)

Nothing like that on my mailer. Just 15 days of $5 and some point
multiplier days. I haven't heard anything about continuing Senior
Wednesdays in July. Does anyone know about that?

There was an ad in todays LVRJ promoting Senior Wednesdays in July.

Thanks for pointing that out! I may have otherwise missed it.

Both our mailers stated that if we collect the first TWO the remaining
offers will be doubled.

My wife and I each received 6 offers of $40 and $25 respectively.
Presumably we can have the last 4 doubled.

This is the fallout from going to daily average. Basically, unless you're very well bankrolled and can play off the $100 offers without damaging your top mail status, you're essentially playing for a .3-.6 card and very little.

There are a couple of decent plays still left, but frankly, not worth my time anymore.
