Friday Dec. 30th, 2011. I went to Harrah's today after lunch at home because I thought they were giving away 10 times the
points for the points you gained. GUESS I was wrong, I didn't see anything about it. I ended up having a real fun time.
I got on a NEPTUNE machine and won about $75.00 . IT kept taking me to the bonus round and was fun to play. The
Hot Penny machines were cold today also. STAMPEDE was not co-operating. I Got on a Money Tree machine (the old
kind) and won about $40.00. I don't know where the time went but it was soon 3:30P.M. And time to leave. Told "hubby'
I'd be home about 4:00 p.m. He is not a gambler, so I don't "PRESS MY LUCK". As much as I would like to go on New
Years Eve, no can do. HAVE A HAPPY NEW YEAR'S EVE AND NEW YEAR!!!!!

I decided to go up to HARRAH'S today, as I probably won't get back up there until after the 1st of the new year. It is a 30 minute
drive for me. I had chili in the snack bar area and as always is good. The ladies that work there are really nice. The slots
were letting you play today. I WON SOME MONEY ON WONDER WORLD. That was alot of fun. I went to the GUSHER
machine and it took me to the bonus round about 6 different times. I like the Stampede machine, and was able to play
awhile on that. I might still be there, except I told "hubby" I would be home about 3:30p.m. I played for about 3 hours and
came home about $80.00 ahead.
By the way, when I got home "hubby" said a pkg was on the dining room table for me. Thank you for my 2012 casino guide.
I really like it. Merry Christmas & Happy New Year!!!

Our second stop today was Harrah's buffet for lunch. I WON 15,000 POINTS through a contest, so I treated myself and 2
friends to lunch at the buffet. We all agreed it was very good. Service was good and the help was friendly. Couldn't find
a thing wrong. We went downstairs, cash wizard machine at Harrah's was not paying off like the other casino. I won about
$50.00 on a "HOT PENNY MACHINE' FRIEND JAN WON ALMOST $90.00 on a Platinum quick hit machine. Friend NANCY
broke even. It was a good day for all.

WE always visit the Venetian when we come to LAS VEGAS . We love the Grand Lux cafe and eat there at some point in
time . I like the slots and usually can play awhile on them. I would love to stay there some time, but it is a little out of my
price range. I understand from friends that it is very, very nice. I would rather put my money in the one armed bandits.
I always have a good time there.

I usually play at harrah's ST. LOUIS because I am a Platinum card player. It allows me free rooms out in Las Vegas and we
go about twice a year. CUSTOMER SERVICE people are always so nice when I call to make reservations. Slots at home
are hit and miss. Sometimes they are o.k. and other times I feel like I should give them my money at the door. The buffet is
usually good. I eat quite often at the little cafe in the casino and they have good chili. I recently won part in the great race
reward contest, so that was fun. I feel safe here, though I seldom go at nite.
