Subject: [vpFREE] Moving to LV
It is not a good idea to move to a specific area for one casino because things change a lot nowadays. I live in a great area called Spring Valley....near Jones and Flamingo. They are building some homes now on a lot right on Flamingo (by Nora's Italian restaurant) for low $300,000 according to sign. If anyone is looking right now, this is a great area. I had my house built 18 years ago on the next street over for $280k, watched value go up to 500k, then fall to about 225k when recession hit now back up to 330-360K. Walking distance to 2 bus lines, library, post office...about 1/2 mile to big grocery (my husband walks it almost daily), very quiet area, and people don't move because it is so nice and close in to the strip, Chinatown, etc.
Anyway, from here I quickly can go via bus (or my mobility scooter) to Palms, Gold Coast, Rio, oRleans, and strip. At various times good promos were found at one or other of these, that later changed.
Moving to Summerlin you have Red Rock Station and Suncoast.
And so on. Green Valley Ranch is a little more isolated.
But my point is that things change. And gambling really shouldn't be the only consideration as to where to move. You can change gambling location via car, Uber, Lyft, taxi or bus! (Also we have door to door Paratransit for $3 each way if you have mobility problems...something to think about when retiring.
Right now things are changing a lot with Caesars being bought. The Rio was just sold but will remain in a total rewards system for awhile. Palms became a Stations. Circus circus was sold. Downtown some casinos are changing. So you never know.
By the way I want to state it is a fallacy to believe you might get nomailed because of a royal or two. No way. I've had plenty. The no mail seems to go to people who are super careful to hit every advantage... play to the point of maximum for a drawing and then stop and go to every possible drawing. Or redeem free play constantly, but not play most of time. Or always play on multiple point days and never other days. Use all comps.. And generally do a lot of these actions, resulting in max comps and free play but not so much regular play. Yes winning a LOT of royals could be bad if you end up a big winner overall for the year, especially in concert with some of these other actions. Make a name for yourself by constantly winning drawings and you will come under more notice. Play only 99% VP and never a slot machine might bring more attention. But in my opinion it is normally some combination of actions that results in no mail.
Offers for free play are mostly dependent on how much you play, not really on win and loss. If you play 1 day in a month and pick up free play 6 times, eventually your daily average goes down. Or you hit some jackpot and just stop playing, well the amount on that day goes down. Also, casinos change their offer levels for a number of reasons. Caesars changed management and just decided it was giving away too much, and everyone's offers were lowered. If a casino wants more business in a off season, offers for food and $ may increase (Palms is giving away a ton of free buffets now to increase foot traffic). If they are crowded and winning $, offers could decrease. And so on.
Good luck with your move.
