Apparently, I have something like 19,000 Total Rewards Reward Credits, which, supposedly, is worth about $190. However, while the website lists any number of places that supposedly take reward credits, nowhere does it say just how I am supposed to redeem them. Somehow, I don't think it's as easy as, say, going into Guy Savoy or Smashburger at Caesar's, and when the check comes/the cashier asks for your money, you flash your TR card at them.

Could somebody enlighten me on how this works?

They take out the cost of the food bill from your points. For example, I had about 300 points on my Player's Club card and I bought a chicken, rice, and mashed potatoes meal that cost $7.50. I used my points and paid $4.50 for it. :)

They call it Quick Rewards. Very efficient, but the confusing aspect for me is sales tax. Usually if the restaurant is casino-owned, sales tax is avoided when paying with points. But when using points at an independently owned restaurant, sales tax may be assessed. If I'm trying to spend a specific amount, I'll ask in advance about the sales tax policy, but I don't always get a correct answer.

Now that I have a few minutes I can add more than what I said.

Whenever I go into a restaurant I ask 2 questions. Do you accept tr points and is the conversion 1 to 1. Meaning 100 points equals 1 dollar on menu.

After dinner I had the cashier or server my card and ask them to use points. Almost always you will pay the pretax price with points so $50 bill will be 5000 points. Debt forget to tip cant use points to tip.
