Here is the sampling of offers received so far this month from various Minnesota casinos for my birthday:

• Mystic Lake – email with $5 free play
• Grand Casino Hinckley – kiosk game (won double points for the day), drawing entry into birthday drawing to be held last Tuesday of the month
• Black Bear – kiosk game (won $10 off in the steakhouse any day in January)

Not as good as past years…
