Just before we left for AC for a couple of days, we got a postcard from the Gold Nugget for offers starting 3/1 so stopped there on the way home and were pleasantly surprised by their breakfast buffet which was darn good. I had a BOGO coupon but we easily won more than enough on our $5 free play to pay for the second buffet. Even if not free, ~$13 for a great breakfast buffet is very reasonable.
Once their renovations are done, the Gold Nugget may become the only other AC casino to draw our business other than The Borgata. DH got upgraded to their *Chairman?* tier so we will be able to try their club after earning $20 comp. Earning 5,000 tier points in 6 months is pretty obtainable for us if we want to continue using their club. The casino is too dark and has lots of construction going on but I saw several machines I wanted to play. Really hated yesterday at Harrahs cuz Harrahs has changed alot of their penny slots to a 40 cents minimum and up. I like to play 25 to 30 cents a spin. Also their machines are very tight compared to The Borgata. No wonder Harrahs seemed like a ghost town while The Borgata was packed. Only advantage of staying at Harrah's on nights we cannot get comped at The Borgata would be their proximity to the Gold Nugget. Do not like the parking garage at The Gold Nugget and much prefer to walk there. So will take the Harrahs room for the $13 room fee then not bother to play their slots anymore.
Ironically, the new Revel is not even going to have a buffet!
When it comes to attracting the regular AC recreational gambler with comps:
This is Something The Borgata has mastered,
Something CET has forgotten,
Something Revel may never learn.
