Not much help here. Don't do locals and AC is 2 and a half away away. So generally plan my trips and always stay at least one night, but usually at least 2.

Have fun with your niece/nephew today. I have my grandson this morning, so no worries of hitting the casino yet
I do think distance would be a blessing. My local about 30 minutes from home and about 10 from work and in line with driving home, can be detrimental to my $$$.
I guess it's a good thing my local is stingy with the FP offersm if they were to send me those amounts I'd definitely go.
It would be easier for me if the casino was further away. I'm trying to save for Coushatta and Vegas this year and when I get bored I convince myself that the local will be in a giving mood and boost my vacation BR. Hasn't happened yet.
I understand that feeling all too well.
One of these days, maybe we'll both be there at the same time and you can pass some of your winning ways to me
I keep trying to plan the getaways, but until I retire, the local is too tempting and there goes the getaway budget.
I'm planning on trying to coax my granddaughter into going shopping later today, shouldn't be too hard hone:
That sounds like a wonderful promo, the last promo giveaway that I got was a set of 4 pots and you had to go once a week to get a new piece. Needless to say, I could have flown to Vegas a couple of times for what I lost while getting the pots :doh:
I need to start pretending I don't have a local.
I have 4 casinos less than 1/2 hour from my house, two of them I frequent, as they give me free play and free food! The other two I ignore. There are times when I go in only to play the free play and eat. When the offers stop, then I stop going!
Hasn't happened yet.
Do some slot hopping- Let's say you put a 20 in and if nothing pays by 5 bucks, get off and go on another.
I try to stay away from the local as much as possible. It's only 20 minutes away, so it's VERY close. I don't lose there every time, but, let's face it. If we are being honest, you will lose over time. Anyone who says they win every time is either fictional or not honest IMO. I'd rather save my money for destination trips, where I get a room, food, and often meet up with friends. I usually lose on those as well, but they are fun at least! I do make trips to the local occasionally, but not nearly as often as I used to.
I wouldn't say it was boredom because there's always a ton of things to do around the house and yard.
I just get an uncontrollable itch to go to casinos sometimes.
Naturally if I have a nice free play offer, it makes my decision much easier lol
I have way too many choices. Check out my playground.

My DH and I go way to much to the locals. It doesn't seem as much fun anymore. I think I liked it more when you had to plan for a trip. I also love staying different places. Now we just go 20 minutes to half hour away. We also have really not been winning at the locals. We havn't had a HP in over a year an a half.
Around 1992 they started allowing Riverboat gambling in Iowa due to some Federal legislation. They initially required the boats to go up & down the river while patrons gambled. A short time later they allowed land based casinos. I know my local HoChunk Wisconsin Dells opened in October 1993. My first time there was July 3rd,1994.
