Casino Spotlight: Promotions at Gold Strike

 Casino Spotlight: Promotions at Gold Strike

This month, let’s explore what’s going on at Gold Strike. The resort includes a 50,000-square-foot casino, award-winning restaurants, the Millennium Theatre (which has featured performers such as Randy Travis and the Beach Boys), the Golden Reflections Spa and a convention center. I can’t wait to tell you about Gold Strike’s gaming, hotel and dining options as we move through the month. Fun fact: At 32 stories, it is known as one of the tallest buildings in Mississippi.

Before I give you details on how to spend your time at Gold Strike, I want to let you know how you can get a little extra something through Gold Strike’s casino and hotel promotions. Make sure you sign up for M life to be eligible for all of the promotions. And check out the promotion event calendar so you can plan your trip around your favorite promotion.

At the slots, 40 players can enter to win a piece of $15,000 in Sizzling Summer Showdown and September Sizzling Sundays. The top prize is $4,500 in Freeplay. If you have 100 slot base points the day of the tournament, you will receive free entry. And Tuesdays and Thursdays in August, earn points and Express Comps twice as fast while playing Gold Strike’s slot machines with 2X Points.

On August 27-28, you’ll have a chance to a winner of a piece of the $25,000 There for the Taking three-card poker tournament. Buy in is $50, and 25 players can win prizes from $100 in TablePlay to $10,000 in cash and TablePlay. On Spin to Win days, earn 1,200 base points on the day of the promotion and spin the prize wheel in the hotel lobby to receive a guaranteed $100 to $500 in FreePlay.

Treasures of the Caribbean drawings will be held Thursday and Saturdays until Sept. 1. You can enter to win a prize drawing or a piece of $1.5 million in FreePlay. After taking advantage of all these promotions, treat a friend to a buffet when redeeming Express Comps every Monday and Wednesday in August, because buffets are two for one.

If you want to add on a round of golf or a spa day to your weekend trip, book one of Gold Strike’s hotel packages. The Stay and Play Golf Package includes room, preferred tee times, a shared golf cart, a 15 percent discount at a Gold Strike retail outlet, a 10 percent discount at the Tunica National Pro Shop and a $10 food and beverage credit. Weekday (Sunday-Thursday) rates are $86 per person, and weekend (Friday-Saturday) rates are $124 per person.

A spa package is also available at Gold Strike. To me, the spa is to a getaway trip what peanut butter is to jelly. Gold Strike makes it easy by bundling spa treatments into a hotel package. The Golden Reflections Spa Package includes a choice of one spa service, hotel accommodations, one $25.00 food and beverage credit per room, nightly turndown service and 15 percent discount at a Gold Strike retail outlet. For the spa service, you can choose a 50 minute Swedish massage, a 50 minute deep tissue massage or a mini facial/mini massage. On weekdays, the page starts at $120 per person. To make reservations for the golf of spa package, call 1-888-24K-STAY.
