Free bump, funny harvesting story...
In search of a rack of $1s about a year ago...
The cosmo usually has $25 minimums across the floor which is pretty annoying. So I had to beg for the chips instead of get them while playing. I started on a Friday night, went up to just about every table game threw down two red chips and asked for $1's "for souvenirs ". A lot of dealers said no. A few said only 5. A few gave 10. And a couple freaked out and called the floor. This went on over an hour. I managed to get about 65. I figured ill try the following morning, new shift. New faces. I started at the cage hoping to get lucky with a full stack. I walk up. Throw a twenty down and say "can I have some dollar chips for souvenirs?"
The cashier, older lady, looks at me like she saw a ghost and replied "you would not believe this, but I just read a memo saying that we cannot sell chips for souvenirs "
"OH, really? That's crazy. So I can't get any chips? "
"No. I'm sorry. The memo just came out this morning. For table games and the cage. That is so strange "
So I'm pretty sure I was the cause of a casino wide memo being put out at the cosmo. Lol. Even funnier is the cashier didn't suspect i was the culprit. I don't go back there that often.
Good luck with the hunt!
