Shuttle, Shuttle everywhere, and not a Dime to spend

There is a free shuttle that goes from Harrah's to Rio every 15 minutes. The trick is finding the loading point. Harrah’s is next to Casino Royale and the Venetian on one side, and the Mirage, which is across the street. Just go through the revolving doors and go all the way through the casino, pass the check in desk and out to the taxi stand. The gentleman hailing the cabs will be glad to direct you to the pick up area. As Caesars Palace, Bally's, and Paris are also Harrah’s properties the shuttle will take you there also. You can catch a bus going to Sam’s Town and Fremont street also.
Pick-up times are about every 30 minutes from each casino. No luggage is allowed.
Shuttle times run Monday-Wednesday from 10 a.m. to 1 a.m. and Thursday-Sunday from 10 a.m. to 4 a.m.
Where to pick up the shuttle:Harrah's: Shuttle/Bus/Trolley drop off Rio: Carnival World Buffet entrance Bally's/Paris: Limousine entrance Caesars Palace: Augusta Tower valet entrance

L I'LL B, MR COMPS


In my last post I was explaining how to get comps. Getting the player's card and using it. Not that hard. But what if you want to get a Vegas comped room and have never played there before. No action on the card. No action for the room. Well you can try the email route and that sometimes works (see previous post) or you can go to a gambling boat that might be closer. Case in point. I used to get comps for free rooms from Harrah's and Rio's all the time. As I started going to other casino's I slowed my play down at Harrah's and they dropped me off the mailing list. Now I like Harrah's because it is convenient to the free shuttles and is easy cab access when you're going back to the airport for departure. But when I'm out there I play more time at other casino's. So this is where the boat comes in. From Nashville I took the $5 dollar bus to Harrah's in Metropolis, Illinois. I had never done this before but for the $5 you get someone to drive you, a free buffet and conversations with a bus load of gamblers. Hog heaven. So I used my player's card, won a little money, and accumulated 200 points. By the way, the 200 points qualified me to get my 5 bucks back....woo hoo...but here's the great part. The 200 points put me back on the mailing list. Yep in my mailbox today was a flyer from Harrah's for free nights in May, June and July not to mention 10 bucks off Toni Braxton at the Flamingo, 10 bucks off Hat's the Musical at Harrahs and one free desert at Voga Ristorante', and since Harrah's owns Bally's, Flamingo, Imperial Palace, Rio's and Paris that special is good for any of there properties. Cool.
