How to Get Free Meals in Las Vegas

Most Vegas casinos have a free meal in their comps packages.

You can get free meals in Las Vegas, but you could have to pay a lot to get them. Some Vegas casinos offer free meals as part of a rewards program. The program is for players who put in a lot of time, and money, on the games in that casino. You will need to apply for and receive a player's card to take advantage of this offer.

Things You'll Need

• Player's card

Instructions

1. Get a player's reward card at any casino you go to.

2. Insert the card in any casino game you play, or hand it to the dealer at any table you play. Every action you take adds points to the comps.

3. Check the number of comps on the card. Most casino machines have a read-out that electronically displays the comps number. Casino guest services can also tell you how much is on the card.

4. Play some more to run the comps up if you don't have enough for a free meal. Comps may take some time to build up to the point where a free meal is even an option. Slot machines, for example, may reward points based on the amount of money you play per spin. So, if you play $1 per spin, you get 100 points each time. In 2011, it took 2,500 points to get $15 worth of resort points at the Palazzo.

Tips & Warnings

• Only gamble what you can afford.

• Watch your alcohol intake while gambling.
