There have been a few good deals offered, I wouldn't expect to see deals for Thanksgiving for at least another month though.

That being said, I think a lot of the really good deals are going to folks the casinos already know, i.e., people who have gambled there in the past ... the casinos would like to avoid having folks who are just tourists and not gambling much and I think in part they're resorting to offering better deals to smaller-time gamblers to get them in (and I say that based on my personal experience as a small-time gambler).
