How often do Virgin do seat promotions?

It's only been since Aug/Sept that I've started paying more attention to promos for flights/seats etc and there appear to be quite a few running every month or so, mainly economy, a few PE and one or two recent UC ones.
I've mentioned that I'm looking at going to Las Vegas in March or thereabouts and have held off so far to see what promos, if any, come along encompassing the period I would like to travel.

Therefore, what I would like to know if roughly how often Virgin runs these promos (or if anyone keeps a list of what happened when) as if there's some sort of pattern, it would help a lot when looking at future bookings, especially if UC was going cheaper than usual etc.

Basically, whenever BA do [:p]

Seriously, it's usually during quiet periods - so when demand falls, a sale appears. Jan/Feb is typically quiet for airlines, so hence the current flurry of offers.

Also remember that the LGW-LAS route only has 14 seats in UC,so if you do see something snap it up quickly
