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 !

I didn't get a choice just the shells this month.
Just popped in for a cig and saw you won. I won the last one and they gave me a choice of the chocolate eggs or a $25.00 best buy gift card. I chose the gift card and they messed up and sent me a $10.00 gift card. I e-mailed them and they are very nice. See attached e-mail. Maybe they are not offering the gift card anymore as they say they are doing this in their spare time as a hobby.

Hi Julie!


OMG how embarrassing!! I know what happened! I meant to send a different one from the picture which was $25. But we accidentally sent the one from the picture!!! I think I have a $5 and $10 one we will send it out! Sooo sorry!! We do this in our free time for fun as a hobby.

Their live audition isn't until June 16th, and is not a public vote at that point. They all did a good job of putting together a video and song.

I laughed at your previous post...what would you have gotten...$25 worth of chocolate eggs? Hope you got your gift card!

Quote from Gary123X :
As the bikes were shipped from the supplier and not by Marlboro they may not be aware of the switcheroo by Fuji
Letting them know is of service to them also. They may have been overcharged. MSRP means nothing, they had a previous contract I'm sure.

I really do not expect anything more from Marlboro and I'm really satisfied with the Fuji.
My intent was not to defame marlboro in any way, I just wanted to inform them of the switch in case they did not know.


On another note, my sister called CS at Marlboro yesterday and inquired as to why she hasn't heard anything from them about her SD card.
Jim gave her the 3rd degree why she waited so long to call, and he was rather rude to her until he looked up her file and found she previously called in February about the same issue. He's calling her back Wednesday.
We all know they have been replacing SD cards.
Gary123x, It doesn't cost anything, "Not even the phone call "1-800...' to find out if your right.
so on your behalf , I hope your right and can get things straighten out the way you want them with Marlboro.

As for the other awards Marlboro changed up they were, the laptop's, the Rod & reels, The Camera's
and The Carhartt Coats.
The Coat I chose, according to the picture shown it had the carthartt leather tag on the left front breast and the collar was dark brown.
The one I recieved had the leather tag on the bottom left pocket and had a black collar. after I researched it
I got a 2011 coat. the other was a 2010 series. And the 2011 was $30.00 cheaper retail. "But it was free' and its nice, " I'am Happy.
I'll still have to respect the part that Marlboro states, that they reserve the right. and would pretty much believe they know what their Money is buying.

Quote from randyjoefischer :
I also have reviewed the two bikes, and the models being sent out this week are totally different and lower priced from retailers. the rules state they may sub with equal or greater value.
The Bike appears to have been cut bake in so may areas,from paint color(additives to enhance the color), shifter is sub par from the first, front shocks is lowest grade but still meets the travel distance, chain guard, chain, pedal, derailuers, brake shifter.
I have not received mine, but I selected the prize posted and they should give what they offered.
the Netbooks they upgraded to the next highest, included office software and a 8 GB card, so why lower the bikes specs.

I still am happy to have made the Bike request. but stay fair, if more than expected have requested the bike, M should honor the rewards.

Sorry for crying
@Randyjoefischer, Maybe that Phone call Gary123x is going to make will make a difference !

My own opinion is, if this was a personal purchase I guess I could understand the Complaint, but since it was "Free' I guess I lean more to the old adage of "Don't look a gift horse in the mouth.

"Good luck Guy's !
