RETIRED Marlboro Outwit the West Funny Farm

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 !

Good Evening All You Wonderful People!! Got my highlight win from Bare minerals. Also the Hambuger speaker from scole but I never won anything on that one unless it was one of those no spins I got all the time and then you already entered when I refreshed but I thought you had to verify your info if you won.. Oh well surprise surprise LOL
I believe the speaker was a freebie they were giving out if you signed up for it.
found in SD freebie section https://slickdeals.net/f/4887650-Free-Hamburger-Speaker-from-Skoal-21?v=1

I received one for me and one for hubby today.

Hi Friends,
It seems to me that all the former "Marlboro Heavy Hitters" are active in this Lounge forum but not active in the current Marlboro "Biggest Night of the Year" contest forum over on Contests and Sweepstakes. A bit disconcerting.

It seems that Marlboro has intentionally withheld the actual rules for the "Biggest Night of the Year" VIP contests other than the rules for week one. I find no real conjecture of the week two VIP contest, what may be required and what the rules may be. At least Marlboro finally did post the "title" of the weeks two thru whatever on the site. Just not any rules nor any conjecture on what is going to be asked of the participants.

I think this contest may actually be more difficult than other Marlboro contests and yet my learned friends are not posting in the "Biggest Night of the Year" forum. Why? Sometimes I am good or even great with Marlboro's contests, but this one has me getting concerned.

This cowboy may well need a buddy or two in the near future over on the other forum,.

Phone number magic Trick

The trick is self-explanatory, give it try and impress your peers. The trick goes as follows:

Take a seven-digit phone number, for example, 941-7990. Multiply the first three digits by 80. Add one. Multiply by 250. Add the last four digits of the original phone number. Add the last four digits again. Subtract 250 and divide by two.

Maths is so miraculous at times isn't it??

Just found out a cool way to use all those $10 Live Nation codes Ive been winning. If you buy a gift card for $10 and you want to buy something that costs $50, all you have to do is buy 5 gift cards and use them . Found this in the terms
If a purchase is for more than the remaining balance on a Card, the user may pay the balance of the purchase amount with (i) another Card or (ii) a valid credit card.

I don't know if it's any good or not.
I do think when a lot of us get these "mysteries" it the mail, it's because of the games screwing up and not displaying the winning messages.
Did go get the mail, no speaker, but finally got my $70 Firestone Destination Summer win......they had forgotten about me......

Congratulations on receiving your wins!

Good Luck to all!
