Hi all,

I started this thread for anyone who wants to come here for lite discussion, jokes, and just general discussion and fun.

Everyone is welcome!

I was thinking that maybe it would be helpful to keep the original thread to a bit more of a serious discussion of the clues and answers.

This would make the original thread more useful to those seeking serious information and clues without having to read through hundreds of extraneous messages.

So, I hope it catches on !

So pop a beer and pull up a chair and relax !

Thanks for posting the info on your call to Camel CS. I just called them back, and they checked my account and confirmed I did indeed win the $25 Visa card on the last game, and should receive it sometime in April. Keeping my fingers crossed that are just giving us a line of crud. Please post when you get yours, and I will do the same.

Sure hope we don't have as much trouble getting our instant wins on the Hump day game! I'm armed with a screen shot & CS numbers if they mess around again this time.
You go girl!!!!! go get em

LOL! Yeah, I will keep on them if necessary. Like I said before, it doesn't do any good to get a win, if you don't get the prize!

I don't know if all of a sudden a big dark cloud rolled in on top of me or what the dealyo, but ever since I posted on here that I had recieved an e-mail from Marlboro that my prize was on the way(which amounted to nothing showing up), I have not recieved any prizes I have won from various contests, have not recieved any of the freebies I have signed up for, and have had problems with some of the new contests. I just tried to enter the Newport contest today and after filling in the form, got a message to call them, which I did, and when the operator told me she was transferring me to a different department, hung up on me. I called back up and went thru the whole routine again and got hung up on again! Sounds like the Camel game has problems, too. Somebody throw me a horseshoe or a bald guy so I can rub his head!!!Annoyed

It must be the weather! I probably shouldn't be bringing any bad vibes on here. I just got started in the contests and freebies thing just over a year ago and had a pretty good year run with contest wins but still naive when it comes to the freebies. I think the Newport thing set me off today. What a pain in the old keister! And I'm still not entered into it!!
