hmmm you think 2.6lb package could be my fleece from Keystone Orange Can?
Question- how long did it take for you to get the email after keystone called you? they called for my email address 2 days ago, the girl read it back correctly to me, but still no email. Thinking I may need to call them tomorrow. I won the backpack.

the firepit I won from the chill off the grid contest came today, it is a really nice firepit. I'm not complaining at all, very grateful since I never win from Marlboro but the affy I had to sign and send back has a price of $849.98, the Ohio Flame website that shipped it sells it for 599.99.
So I checked the accessories for it thinking maybe it was supposed to come with the spark screen or some other accessory because of the inflated price on the affy, the spark screen is 269.99 which is around a 20.00 difference. I'm wondering if I should contact Marlboro or just leave it alone. Any suggestions?

I was never called by them...they sent me a confusing and poorly worded email with a code.

Grab ads with the current value as proof. Print them out and save them with your tax docs, file an adjustment form on your taxs. But be aware this my flag you for an audit.

They only call if you entered via text, and only then to get your email address. In my case, it took around 7-10 days before I got an email after the initial call, so just be patient. The email will have a link to go and enter your mailing address, then you just wait for it to arrive. FYI - that backpack isn't nearly as nice as you might think - no way it's worth the stated $120 ARV, but it's probably fine for a basic day pack to use on a hunting trip (it's camouflage).

Hi fellow sweepers, I've not been doing many sweeps the last year or so, but have been trying to get back into it recently. So today I got notified from FedEx of a delivery tomorrow of a 40lb package coming from Award Center in Englewood NJ, anyone have any idea who they are? Kind of curious as I've not been called or emailed about any wins.

Oh, thank you for your response. Sometimes they only give you a few days to respond to the email, so I was worried my email was incorrect. It is a bummer to hear the backpack isn't as great as the value stated - glad you prepped me for that. It will be nice if I can use it for my son for school next year - he's 11, so he may go for the camo. Otherwise, it will make a nice donation.

Ok, thanks for responding. Another poster got a phone call and filled me in. Appreciate the help! I'll wait for my randomly written email!

Thanks implode.. that would just be my luck to get audited! think I'll still call marlboro and ask though. Is it normal for them to over inflate the price of the prizes? I know some companies do it, I just didn't know marlboro did it also.

My laptop has been down so, I hadn't played all week. I have some type of issue with my screen/monitor there is a bunch of vertical colorful lines running down the screen. Anyway, I borrowed my daughter's laptop for a couple of days and won this tonight:

Congrats on the win. And FYI on your monitor; vertical lines usually indicate a physical defect which is almost impossible to correct. Laptop screens are not that expensive and can be replaced for around $80 if you know someone who can do it for you. If you have to pay for labor, probably not worth bothering; would be almost cheaper to get a new laptop.

Hey Powie! I tried digging around a bit but can't seem to find out anything. Pretty curious what it is! A 40 lb win has to be good. Smilie
