I've heard of Timeshare places giving tickets if you sit through their sales pitch. Does anyone know where to go for this? Or if it works? Or any other ideas?

Nope. I learned a long time ago, there are no free lunches, and the best Cirque du soleil is "O", and worth every penny of it....it's the only one that has a "water - swimming pool" for a stage, that opens and closes, and then people walk on it. WOW!
A thought to consider - if you want points, every casino has the "key card" to get your them. You establish a credit account.
They do a credit check on your, and they have your credit report.
Everyone knows what you owe, and every credit card you have, because when your name pops up for casino ID, they instantly have tons of information about you.
That is their "COMP" PROGRAM, and every casino has one.
If that is what you want, you will get just that.
No thanks, no comp program with my credit report advertised to anyone in any casino for me!
But if you want to have fun: Read on -
There are many deals at expedia.com and travelocity.com
lasvegas.com
There are casinos everywhere - so don't feel you have to lose all of your money at one location.
There are roller coasters on top of tall buildings.
There are white tigers on the first floor side area of the Mirage.
There are outside shows at Treasure Island.
Gambling:
There are many where you can lose $50 without even trying, then win $10, then win another $50.
It's easy to lose $100+ a day minimum, so if you're smart
you'll back away if you lose $20 - and try your luck another time, or another day.
Best location, and I stayed there January 2006, was the Mirage and it's next to Treasure Island, across from Venetian Grand canal, and down the street are Bellagio and the Eiffel tower.
You can walk everywhere, or take the bus when your feet get tired (very cheap).
Don't forget to lunch at the Eiffel tower - pricey but great, great food, and across from the fantastic Bellagio fountains that have themes - yes dancing fountains w/music when you're outside to hear.
Lunch also at the revolving restaurant -where you can see all of Vegas during the day - THE STRATOSPHER. The food was magnificent and you can see if you go at lunchtime - where the people of Las Vegas live and the mountains that surround it.
Las Vegas - I saw Jay Leno and he was non-stop for 1 & 1/2 hours of jokes, and we got the last 2 seats in the far section, and it was still somewhat close because the entertainment area was well done!
We went to see Mystere show - and the best is called "O" which means water in French. The stage actually opens for people to dive into, and then closes for people to walk on it.
So amazing.
At the end of 7 days, I was ready to come home. It's exciting, but not enough to say, wow someday I'd consider living there.
GOD bless us one and all, always.

The tickets to Cirque du Soleil are quite expensive. Timeshare places don't really give those out. The most you get out of those places is some cash. I sat through a sales pitch and I got $65 bucks. I had a nice meal that night. Honestly, save up your money and go see 'O' at The Bellagio. It's the best Cirque show EVER. The tix aren't cheap but it's worth every penny.

Timeshare gives you the shitty tickets no body wants. They never give Cirque shows or any over a $2 value. Trust me i know, I sold slimeshare for years and I'm going to hell for it. The best thing to do is find a cheap ticket outlet online. Some of them have it for 2for1 or other discounts. Your not goona see those shows for free unless you work in the casinos or know people. Even then it's rare cause those shows don't need help.
