I seen the American Casino Guide on Walmart.con for $13.02 with free shipping so I bought a copy. It came in today. I was mainly interested in the coupons for downtown. It seems like the coupons have been downgraded from last year, at least downtown. A lot of the offers where for people who didn't have a players card yet at the property the coupon was to. I think the best coupon I seen was for $25 for the William Hill sports book mobile app. It was only valid if you have never had a mobile account before. I haven't had a account their so I am going to try to use that coupon.
I'm happy with the purchase and the one coupon for William Hill will more than cover the price of the book. It did seem like the coupons weren't as good as they where last year. Has anyone else gotten the 2018 book yet?

No, but I imagine I will. For anyone who wants to see all of the offers prior to deciding whether or not to purchase, the ACG makes them available here:

The D seems to have the $25 Push-22 and the $25 Match Play, so those are pretty good. $5 in Free Play (up to $100) for every 50 points earned, but I don't recall how much coin-in a point is. They may still have a few 100%+ quarter VP games there if those still earn points.
25 Points = $10 FP at Downtown Grand, but I don't know how much it takes to earn a point.
$25 Match Play at Golden Gate
$10 Match Play at Plaza
The other ones are all for new BConnected Members with Play $x get $x in Free Play. Also, that may mean you can only do it at one of them as a result. Either way, looks like Orleans and Gold Coast now have separate $10 Match Plays for people who are already members, not Downtown, but at least it's something.
Either way, the value exceeds the cost just between The D and Golden Gate, and that's not mentioning any food discounts, so it's still pretty good. Another loss in value is because Las Vegas Club no longer exists, and it had a coupon or two, as well.

Expect the worst and you will never be disappointed.

The only place where I had a problem with that (if it is the same coupon) was the El Cortez who said you could only use one (from either) per day.

I don’t think you need the boom for the William Hill app- I think they advertise it for everyone. Other sports books have an offer similar
No longer hiring, don’t ask because I won’t hire you either

No doubt the ACG stil has enough coupons to make it worth the money. The coupons have declined some from previous years. One by one get one free buffet coupon will cover the cost of the book.

Leaving on friday for vegas. I was going to buy this book but it doesnt seem like there is very much left in the book. Amazon had it for $11 so I might just do it. The coupon for 25 match at the d breaks it even.
Expect the worst and you will never be disappointed.

There isn't much to the book from the standpoint of gaming offers. There are still several buy one get one buffet coupons to more than cover the cost of the book.

Yeah I probably don't need those but I decided to order the book anyways. However I am not sure if I will get it before I leave. I have amazon prime. I was ordering it and it said order in the next 11 minutes and you will have it on Thursday. I did the order and on the confirmation email it said it will be here on friday. We leave at 1pm so hopefully it shows up by then.

Has anyone tried to use two match play coupons at one place? I've traded on some coupons and I have ended up with multiple $25 match play coupons for one place. I'm pretty sure that I couldn't use them all at the same time but I was thinking about trying to use one coupon at different times or even different days. Anyone have any advice on this? Thanks!!

Depends on the offer. Some require you to turn in the coupon at the membership desk and most of those get entered into your profile and will be marked as already used. Others you simply hand to the dealer and you can use different coupons at different times.

Thanks Billy!! The coupon says one per account per year. I may attempt to use it at the table first and see if they take it. I imagine I will have to turn it in at the players desk or cage.

LVA seems to be a better value in terms of gambling coupons, especially if you plan to visit downtown.

I ordered LVA as well but haven't received it yet. I contacted them via email and they responded and said that they were not able to track the order. They said the PO said it could take 7 to 10 days. They mailed on the 5th. Not sure if it's gotten lost or just delayed or what.

Does anyone know if the LVA or ACG have a "one per household" limit? My wife just said she was thinking about ordering a LVA for our spring Vegas trip... I already ordered LVA, but haven't received it yet either.

Are you talking about the companies themselves or the casinos? Casinos it is 1 coupon per year per person. Acg will probably let you buy 100 if you want. I bought mine on amazon it was cheaper.
Lva has a limit of 2 per person, but it may be 2 per household. We used all our coupons yesterday and everyone let us use both Lva and acg.

LVA used to be one per person, two per household. Not aware of changes, but I have not re-upped yet. Been meaning to.
Some casino coupons are one a year. Some aren't. Some are once in a lifetime.

On their website they let you order 2 at a time. Although it won't do any good if you don't have a second persob since most coupons are once per year.
