We arrived at 2 PM & the reservation lines were packed. Didn’t really have a choice as to which clerk we would get.

Tipped:  $20 Upgraded to  2BR Suite  from  Deluxe 1King 

Okay, I had never done this before and I was truly skeptical when my friend sent me the link to this site. Well, I gave it a try on my last trip to Vegas and it worked like a charm! I checked into the hotel just after 11PM on a Friday. Completed the $20 Trick so smoothly, that the clerk even commented, “Oh, I’m sure I have a suite available for you Mr. Bond” and giggled! It was awesome!

Tipped:  $20 Upgraded to  Executive Suite / Augustus Tower  from  Palace Tower 

Had a late check in on Thursday night (about 11pm) and it was pretty quiet. Made some idle chit chat with the desk clerk and slid my folded the 20 in btw my Amex and my license (with the 20 exposed) and asked if there were any upgrades available for our stay. He saw the $20, made a phone call, and put us in the executive suite in the Augustus tower — living room, spa tub, 2 flat screens (one in bathroom!) and beautiful view of strip and Bellagio fountains. Best bet I made in Vegas all weekend!

Tipped:  $20 Upgraded to  augustus tower - bellagio view  from  standard 

Tipped $20 as soon as I walked up, explaining we would be difficult. Clerk gave it back and I acted confused “doesn’t everyone get tipped in Vegas?” is what I said. I asked for a room facing the Bellagio and she called then said to my wife and I “you are celebrating your anniversary, right?” of course I said “yes we are”. And all was good. Got a great room and then handed her back the $20. My friend did the same thing 2 days later and got the same setup only lower level and used a fifty.

Tipped:  $20 Upgraded to  Same  from  Classic Guest Room 

Checked in early at the airport and put two 20’s between my credit card and License. The clerk was was super cool about it, knew exactly what I was doing. She typed away and made several phone calls saying it was my birthday. She tried for a good ten minutes but because it was the first weekend of the tournament, there just weren’t that many rooms available to hook me up. She apologized profusely and gave me my $40 back. Though disappointed, I’ll do this every time I come to Vegas. It will work, you just reduce your chances if you’re going on a big weekend.

Tipped:  $20 Upgraded to  Suite in Palace Tower  from  5 nights in Classic Palace Tower 

There was a huge queue for checkin so I had my $20 folded and ready and decided on the clerks who I’d try it with. Luckily got one of my choices who turned out to be one of the VIP clerks helping out due to the queue size.
The $20 was between the passport and cc as I walked up, she saw it instantly and put it on to her keyboard without a second thought and began typing away. We then chatted about the queue size and how busy it was this week due to the Nascar being in town and that it was my 30th birthday that week. etc.. then even without asking for the upgrade I got the.. “well your currently in a standard palace room but I’ve got a really nice room in the Augustus tower but its smoking”, we asked if she could find anything else as we’re non smokers and after a minute or so said.. Yes I’ve got you a lovely suite on the top floor in the Palace Tower with a view of the fountains etc… and here’s my personal VIP number should you need anything.

The suite was amazing and the wife was well impressed with how well the $20 trick worked, all thanks to this website and I didn’t even have to ask for the upgrade !

Tipped:  $20 Upgraded to  Deluxe Augustus Tower Room  from  Classic Guest Room 

Chatted with clerk & mentioned a crappy flight, our first trip here/anniversary trip & how excited we were to be at Caesars. I had the tip sandwiched between my ID & CC. I made it partially visible while asking if any upgrades were available. He said yes. After he saw the tip he comped the upgrade (which was about $800 for our 5-night stay) AND!!!! first night was free (~$140). Definitely glad I’ve been following this thread(s).

Room has an excellent view of the strip and Bellagio fountain. Wow!

Tipped:  $20 Upgraded to  Augustus Tower  from  Deluxe Palace Tower Room 

I checked in at the airport, and slipped the $20 between my cc and ID, asking for a complimentary upgrade since it was my wife’s birthday. he immediately saw it and gave it back to me and said, hold on to this, let me see what i can do. apparently Ceasar’s was completely booked all weekend, and he couldnt get us a Palace tower suite or something in the Augustus Tower. But he said he gave us a non-smoking room with a nice view. I decided to try my luck at the front desk, and again slipped them $20 and said that the airport clerk said I should try and get an upgrade at the hotel check in. The desk clerk took a look at my reservation and said that I would be very happy with the room, and if I didnt like it, to come down and talk to him. he gave me back the $20. So we went to go check out the room, and it was a nice room with a great view of the strip, but it was definitely not a non-smoking room. so i went back down and talked to another desk clerk, and complained to her that it was my wife’s bday and that we couldnt breathe in the smokey room. she tried to move us, but since it was so late and the hotel was overbooked, there was nothing she could move us to. but she gave us a food credit of $75, and then put in a note in the computer to upgrade us to a nice room the next morning. So finally the next morning, I went downstairs and they took a look at the reservation and gave us a room in the Augustus Tower – which ROCKED.

Tipped:  $20 Upgraded to  Deluxe Palace Tower Room Higher Floor  from  Deluxe Palace Tower Room 

I checked in way too early, which isn’t always a bad idea. I was really nervous at the same time since this would be my first time trying the $20 trick. Struck a conversation right away about the weather difference from California to Nevada. He was very nice, and I had my GF stand away from us but close enough to where he could see her. I asked for any complimentary upgrades since this was my GF’s first trip to Vegas(true)and flashed the $20 between my ID and CC. He says let me see what I can do and starts typing away. They had a room in the Augustus Tower but it wouldn’t be ready for another couple of hours. I said that sounds good so he makes a call to someone and he’s on the phone arguing trying to get the room for me. After he hangs up he tells me that someone else beat him to that room. Then he offered me the same room that I had booked but higher to the top which isn’t a big difference but it had it’s own elevator and so forth. So I felt a little better…hehe. I still gave him the $20 for the effort he put into it and he told me to call him on his direct line if there was any problems or anything I needed.

Tipped:  $0 Upgraded to  NO upgrade  from  PalaceTower - Deluxe Room 

There was a big line when we got there, ended up checking in with a female. I politely asked if there were any upgrades available, she said she’d check. After typing away for a bit, she said that she could offer us a free upgrade to the Palace Towers. We had booked through an online deal where we were already guaranteed a free upgrade from the Classic Guest room to the Palace Towers, so this wasn’t really an upgrade. I told her that was the room we had originally booked and asked if there was any way she could give us the Augustus towers. She replied that they were all sold out. Didn’t try with cash, maybe that would have helped, although being a weekend it is possible that the Augustus towers were full.
