Local here, mostly video poker with some slots. Between Caesars, Venetian, Station, Red Rock, Palms and Virgin, I've got offers coming in by mail, email and the apps, all with different windows, codes and blackout dates.
I've definitely let free play and room offers expire just because I lost track, and a couple of times I booked one comp when a better overlapping offer was sitting in another inbox.
Right now it's a calendar plus a messy spreadsheet. Curious what the rest of you do:
- Do you track every offer or just the big ones?
- Spreadsheet, calendar, app, or just memory?
- How do you compare value when two offers overlap (free play vs. room nights vs. food credit)?
- Ever lost a good offer to an expiration date?
Appreciate any systems or horror stories.

I think the first thing is to decide what is worth the most to you between room, food, or play.
Then figure out how much more valuable it is than the next best. (Maybe freeplay is worth face value, but food is only worth half of face value.)
Personally, I struggle to benefit from more than 2 food comps or 1 room on most days.

May the cards fall in your favor.
