As a local, it's not very frequently that I go to casinos or the like. I like to stay off the strip as much as possible, but I still like going to one place that allows me to eat, drink, and catch a movie. That's where the Palms comes in.
I love coming here. I love that I can catch a movie at the theaters (IMAX!), grab a drink at the bar, and then either enjoy a nice dinner or a quick bite. The Palms gives you these options without having to put up with all the hassle of a Strip property. It's a definite plus.
Personally, I usually just come here for dinner and/or a movie. I don't do much gambling, so I can't report on how they have deals or promos for locals. That's outside my realm.
