Great time at Harrah’s

 

After traveling 3 hours yesterday plus the time Sherri was at work and the time I was packing and repairing the generator exhaust pipe….we were both tired last night and we slept really hard. I woke up and felt better than I had in a long time having slept without any interruptions.

We had out coffee and made some plans for the day…the biggest of which was where to have breakfast. The Casino breakfast was $9. each and we just said that was too high for us PO folks to pay so we made plans on going to IHOP. We found the closest one on the GPS and headed out. After a little winding around we located it and had a great meal.

From IHOP we went down the street to Wally World and picked up some needed supplies. Then it was off to Harrah’s for some well deserved money changing. Upon arrival I found out that Sherri nor I either one had a Harrah’s card so that had to be dealt with. Mike and Leslie also had to get one too and that is when we found out that we would earn a free buffet if we played so much in 30 minutes time! Also when we came to redeem that they would scan our card to see if we won any money to play on.

We took our cards in our hot little hands and began to play like there was no tomorrow. Sherri and Leslie’s tomorrow came much faster than Mike’s and mine did so we had to go into high gear to get our free buffet. We then took our cards back up to the promotions desk to collect our free buffet ticket and have our card scanned for the money. Sherri Mike and Leslie all won $10. each and me…well I came away with a whopping $50. Yes me…unlucky me won $50 and man was I in shock!

Sherri and I took our new found money and went to the first machine that looked promising and started to work on our retirement fund. Well we doubled our money real soon and decided that there was no way to retire so we just put it all up for tomorrows play.

We went ahead and got our free buffet which was tasty and very filling. We all went away from the table full and satisfied. Then it was back in the casino to play some more but that was short lived when we decided to go on back to Diamond Jacks so we would be closer to our homes when it was time to call it a night.

Our time at Diamond Jacks was not that good. None of us did much money making there so we called it a night around 8:30. We drove on home and said our good-nites…see ya in the mornings and went inside.

Sherri and I checked our emails and Sherri watched her soap opera until she feel asleep. We both crashed early….

I like that system, you get a free card, play for 30 mins, get a free buffet and then win again. Hope you were playing the penny slots for that half-hour!
