[vpFREE] Re: VegasInc: Station Casinos revamps Boarding Pass perks to entice gamblers

AT President level, I get a 2 for 1 on the buffet coupon, or 2 for 1 in China Spice ONCE during the month so NO I don't get free buffets.
Can't combinbe the coupon with points, so it is worthless, as I USED to get 75% off the buffet.

I like taking friends and relatives to dinner in the buffet. When there are 8 of us, it made for a really nice experience. Now... no longer. I did not used to worry about groceries, as there was always the option of taking friends and fmaily to the buffet. In future when I stopped gambling so much, I was used to seeing this as a cushion. Lots of "business lunches taking out clients etc.

Not only the buffet, but the regular restaurants as well. 600 pts to the dollar is like a 40% discount on their "regular" price.

Not to mention on 1/2 pt. senior Wed. hubby liked getting about $100 worth of Sushi, for the point equivalant of about $30 at "todays" prices,
(used to be 30K in points, now 100K in points)

No more!

The new point structure is going to KILL their restaurants!
Even Silverton knew they made a mistake and now has 1/2 pts all month in their cafe and mexican restaurant. I suspect stations will HAVE to do the same, after they get over the massive cashout of benefits!
