Extra Comps

Even though you presented your card at the table, don't be afraid to ask for an additional comp after a couple of hours of play. Many times the table personnel will reward you with a meal comp or two because you have played for a while, win or lose. This is where toking comes in. If you were friendly with the dealer, toked once in a while, you stand a much better chance of scoring a comp. Many times, comps will be offered at the table to a long time (two hour or more) or a well known player. These comps usually WILL NOT be taken off your point total with the players club computer. These comps can also be collected even if you aren't a slot club member.

Comps in the Mail

Destination resorts know that their business is seasonal. Las Vegas slows down noticeably in December, and in the summer. The casinos still have all their fixed costs to pay during these slow times and they turn to their players lists to try and keep their hotels and gambling halls humming. By signing up for the slot club you put yourself on the casinos mailing list. They are always trying to fill their hotel and, many times, will send out terrific offers to their slot club members, trying to entice them back during slack times. These "comps" will generally take the form of greatly reduced rooms rates, combined with coupons for free buffets, free aces, matchplay chips, free coin rolls, free show tickets, scratch tickets, keychains, hats, t-shirts, and on and on. Another reason to join the slot clubs.

Comps in your Email

Casinos were generally slow to enter the internet age but now they are doing so, with a vengeance. Many casinos encourage you to sign their guest book online or just get on their email list by giving them your email address. Periodically they will pump out specials deals and offers to their email list. These are usually not as good as the deals they offer their slot club members, but sometimes they offer tremendous value.

Keep Your Eyes Open

Finally, casinos sometimes post room specials on their internet sites. This requires some work, you have to periodically scan your favorite casino's sites to see if anything has been posted. This may seem time consuming, but, I have found, and cashed in on virtually free rooms using this method.
