Quick Friday rundown of what's actually worth knowing this weekend if you're heading to a Minnesota casino. And yes — for everyone who's been tracking the Mystic giveaway schedule, next weekend is the air fryer. More on that in a second.
🏨 Mystic Lake — Blender week
This weekend's free item from the Smart Prep & Serve Appliance Set is the blender. Earn 250 Tier Points Friday, Saturday, or Sunday between 9 AM and 9 PM, swipe at a Club M kiosk for your gift ticket, and pick it up in the Grand Ballroom. One per person per week.
Small pro tip that's baked into the fine print: swipe Friday or Saturday and you also trigger a bonus Mysticash offer valid Sunday 8 AM–11:59 PM. Two-day play if you plan it.
The air fryer is next weekend. Apr 24–26 is week 4, which is the one a lot of readers have been waiting for. Each week is its own thing, so you don't have to pick — go both weekends and you get both gifts.
🎰 Grand Casino Mille Lacs — Spring Cleaning gift Friday
Today (Friday) is a giveaway day at Grand Mille Lacs. Earn 250 Grand Rewards points between noon and 8 PM (11 AM if you're Diamond/Elite), swipe the kiosk, and pick one item from the Spring Cleaning Set — robot vacuum, electric cleaning brush, spin bucket mop, or the wireless 3-in-1 vacuum. One piece per week.
If you're already a Grand regular, the robot vacuum has been the one going fastest in the weeks I've watched — no shock there. Go early if that's the one you want.
🥚 Jackpot Junction — Thursday-only, but worth flagging for next week
Not a weekend play, but since we're talking appliances: Jackpot Junction runs the Egg-Citing Prizes promo every Thursday in April. 200 base points gets you an electric egg cooker or a mini food chopper. Hit 400 base and you also pick up $25 Free Play. Last one is Thursday April 24.
Jackpot Junction also posted a wild winner batch this week — Lil' Red hit for $28,398 on a $100 bet, Lock It Link Piggy Bankin' hit for $26,392, Follow the Rainbow Grand hit for $11,131. If you've been curious about the drive down to Morton, the machines there are clearly paying.
🏝 Treasure Island — nothing new this weekend, but read this
Their weekly Mon/Tue gift promo is what's next for TI (week 3 runs Apr 20–21), so this weekend is quieter on the gift side. But — and this is the actually-interesting part — TI posted five jackpots mid-week that are worth a look:
- $138,502.54 — Dragon Cash Happy & Prosperous progressive
- $103,662.49 — Dragon Cash Golden Century, $25/spin on the 50-cent denom
- $85,669.01 — Spooky Link Yo Yeti
- $62,086.00 — Ultimate Texas Hold'em progressive
- $50,000.00 — Rembrandt Riches
Five big hits in one stretch is not nothing. The Dragon Cash progressives will reset, but if you're a regular TI slot player, that kind of sequence means the floor is cycling pay cycles hard right now.
Quick callouts for the rest of the state
Black Bear (Carlton) — Sunday/Monday free gift this week is the 5-Speed Hand Mixer. Earn 100 slot tier points 4 AM–9:59 PM, grab your voucher, redeem at Épique Rewards 10 AM–10 PM same day. No stacking Sun/Mon.
Grand Casino Hinckley — Garden Lovers gift on Sunday. 175 points between noon and 6 PM gets you a pick from collapsible wagon, hydroponic pod, weed trimmer, or mini chainsaw. The weed trimmer and chainsaw are, for some reason, the ones people go for first.
