CAN we get our hands on casino collectors who may not know about the show...or who may not be quite interested enough to attend? Those are the ones we should target...maybe a free shirt would be just enough of an incentive to nudge them off the fence.

Maybe some coupons in Spinetti's store? What members have booths in antique shops...maybe for the month before the show some coupons could be given out to anyone who purchases a casino collectible?

My husband and I very seldom go to the Four Winds Casino (not fond of Indian casinos), but for about six weeks they sent me coupons for small prizes...a mini crock pot, a couple of sets of storage containers, a pair of small flashlights, a small tool kit, a small set of bar-b-que tools, etc. The prizes probably had a retail value of $10-$15 each, and they were nothing that we needed; we went to the Four Winds 5 times in that time span...the small prize was enough to get us in the door.

It might work, it might not, but the money has already been spent for the shirts that are on hand...let's try to make them work for us.
