Re: [vpFREE] Re: Free Play

No 1099s are issued for the Holiday Gift Shoppe at MGM properties, or for
the Grazie Gifts at the Venetian, no matter how large the amount you redeem.
I'm not sure about Harrah's, but I assume it's the same.

Wouldn't this increase the chances of getting a 1099 form? I'm talking,

I'd rather have it hit a win/loss statement, which isn't submitted to the
IRS, than to get a 1099 form.

Disclaimer: Of course, I record and pay 100% of all taxes required by law.
