Freebies in Las Vegas??

Question

How and where do i get freebies i.e. free show tickets etc. I know you can but need advice as to how!!!

Answer 1

If you're a player anything is possible, as long as it isn't illegal or immoral. Rather than try to give you all the ins and outs of the comp process, I'm going to give you a reference. Read one of these books, for expert advice on how to get more out of LV than it gets out of you.

"Comp City" - Max Rubin
"The Frugal Gambler" - Jean Scott

Both are available at the best single source of LV info > the Las Vegas Advisor.

I do know how you can get tickets to one show "free" and it requires no play whatsoever. The best of the afternoon shows in LV is the Mac King show at Harrah's. If you're a first time sign up for their "Total Rewards" slot club card, they will give you two tickets to MK. Only one of you needs to sign up(hint, hint) if you're a couple save the other for the next trip, you may want to see the show again.

If you want to see the big ticket shows on the strip, probably the best way would be to stay at one of the MGM/Mirage hotels. They(host) will work together to take care of their players, and they have access to many of the best shows. IOW if you're a player they(host) will do whatever it takes to keep you happy.

2-4-1 coupons are one way to cut the cost of shows. The LVA's POV has 21 , 2-4-1 show coupons among the 164 in the 07 book. The hotel you stay with may have a "funbook" these have 2-4-1's to their show(s) sometimes. The LV magazines such as "LV 24/7" "Today in LV" "Showbiz" often have a 2-4-1 or two.

Use one of the "TIX4TONIGHT" locations, they open at noon each day with half price tickets to that nights shows. 877-849-4868 - Locations - center strip>Fashion Show Mall, south strip>next to Harley Davidson Cafe, north strip>near the Riviera

Good shows that often have 2-4-1's available
Mac King - the booth in the carnaval court at Harrah's
American Superstars - Stratosphere - "funbook"
Dirk Arthur - Tropicana - LV Magazines
Rick Thomas - Orleans - LV Magazines

Viva Las Vegas> Don't waste your time!

If you're into cars, the auto collection at the Imperial Palace is worth taking a look at. A free pass is very easy to come by, either check "Today in LV" magazine or most times they pass them out in front of the IP to draw people in.

Some of the free spectacles in LV are an awesome sight
The Fountains of Bellagio
Fremont Street Experience
Carnaval in The Sky - Rio
Sirens of TI - Treasure Island
Sunset Stampede - Sam's Town
Merlin vs the Dragon - Excalibur
Volcano/White Tigers - Mirage
Festival/Atlantis fountains - Caesars
Animal Habitat - Flamingo
Lion Habitat - MGM

Use the LVA links to sign up for hotel e-mail updates, these hotel are very good about sending out special offers.
LV Hilton >rooms/shows/packages
Mirage >rooms
Venetian >packages
Luxor >rooms/packages
Mandalay Bay >rooms
Orleans >rooms/packages
Golden Nugget rooms/packages
I would sign up for any you are interested in, you never know what kind of offers you might receive. It's the goal of every hotel in LV to fill every room, every night.

If you're going to play, sign up for and use slot club cards. Even if you don't think you play enough. "Sometimes" a couple is better off signing up for separate accounts, as this "may" double any offers from a hotel. The Station and Coast(Boyd) groups are two that I usually would say it's best to sign up for separate cards. With other hotels it would depend a lot more on your level of play.

"Nick D" ask this question 3 weeks ago "What are some tips on earning comps?" If you like, take a look at my answer to him, there might be some info that you find useful.

Answer 2

Good news: there is a lot of stuff that is still free in Las Vegas, and not just on the Strip. 1. Free gambling lessons -- most of the casinos (also free entry) offer them, usually in the morning. 2. Free live shows (short, but sweet) -- Mirage volcano, Bellagio Fountains, Sirens of TI at Treasure Islands, Big Elvis at Bill's Gamblin' Hall & Saloon, the Dealertainers (celebrity impersonators) at the Imperial Palace, the Show in the Sky at Rio (west of the Strip). 3. Free attractions -- The MGM Grand's Lion Habitat, the conservatory gardens of Bellagio, the rock-n-roll memorabilia at the Hard Rock (east of the Strip), the animatronic fountains and behind-the-scenes aquarium peek at the Forum Shops at Caesars Palace, the outdoor wildlife habitat at the Flamingo, the Fremont Street Experience giant sound-and-light-shows (downtown), the outdoor Neon Museum (downtown). 4. Free window shopping -- Sounds crazy, but sometimes the most quirky shops in Vegas are fun just to browse around, like the Adult Superstore (on Tropicana, west of the Strip), Gold & Silver Pawn Shop (from the History Channel's reality TV series "Pawn Stars"), the Gambler's General Store (downtown, full of souvenirs -- you can even buy your own slot machine!) or Bonanza Gifts (near Sahara and Stratosphere), technically the world's largest souvenir store (though really it's just a bunch of interconnected shops full of gloriously kitschy stuff). 5. World Series of Poker -- free to watch, and happening now (though not the main event). Hope this gives you some ideas to get started!

Answer 4

Place a large deposit in the poker room or be a big winner at one of the tables. The casino will do everything to make you stay and lose back your money.
