Holiday week offers collectibles, buffets and Megabucks spins

Traditionally the week between Christmas and New Year’s Day is Las Vegas’ busiest. Good news for the casinos (and many of them need good news) but bad news for promotion lovers. However, we did find a few goodies.

Eastside Cannery players earning 999 base points ($333 coin-in on slots, $500 coin-in on video poker) on Wednesday will receive a special “New Year’s Eve collectible” containing a cash prize of up to $1,000. From noon-4 p.m. Thursday, the Cannery Girls will be handing out random prizes.

M Resort players earning 250 iMagine Rewards base points ($250 coin-in) Monday through Friday receive a buffet lunch. Those earning 400 points Monday through Thursday get a dinner buffet, and anyone earning 600 points Friday through Sunday gets a seafood dinner. The casino also is giving a weekend brunch buffet to Saturday or Sunday players earning 500 points. Points must be earned and redeemed the same day prior to 8 p.m., and this offer is not valid on holidays. Limit one meal per cardholder per day.

Through Wednesday, the Golden Gate is giving away one Megabucks spin for every 100 points (coin-in varies per denomination) earned on your card. On Thursday, the casino will be giving Club 1096 members a free entry to the Fremont Street New Year’s Eve Celebration (a $10-$20 value).

On Jan. 2, the Las Vegas Hilton will give away a 2010 Mercedes C-Class automobile — and players can earn entries at both slots and table games beginning Wednesday.

Still undecided where to greet the new year? The El Cortez “New Year’s Eve Bash” is open to anyone over 21 (many casino NYE parties are by invitation only). For $35 advance purchase (or $50 at the door), attendees get open bar, hors d’oeuvres, entertainment and an entry into the 9:30 p.m. drawing for five $2,010 cash prizes.
