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 randomly checked this email a day before the prize offer would have expired. Smilie And who prices these prizes? $40 for a basketball?
Congrats! $40 for a regulation basketball is about the right amount. Usually, the Coca-Cola company sends limited edition basketballs, so the price is definitely in line.

Quote from cwhetme :
I won $40 in wine from a "partner" of Cooking Light!! Cheapest is $50!! laugh out loud
I read about that "win" in the questions forum in the contest board (or maybe it was the wins). There is also a shipping fee, so not really a "win" per se. Sorry................


Re: the Bic:

Quote from wirasi :
The email also says:

"In addition, to show our appreciation for your participation and patience, we will be sending you a high-value coupon (Free up to $4.99) to the mailing address you provided when you registered for the Promotion."

Better than a koozie I guess.
Quote from Dabble-Inn :
i just got the email Hahaha. It says I'm in the glitch drawing and gonna get a 'high-value coupon' (worth up to $4.99)LMAO for our trouble. Well, Can't Bitch, Whine or Rant about that, The koosie wasn't worth any more. Bwaaahahahah

Hi BIC fan.

Thank you for your participation in our 40th Birthday Flicktacular Promotion.

Your friends at BIC
Quote from jawartman :
At least we all got a a high-value coupon (Free up to $4.99)
I'm happier with a free lighter coupon than a koozie! Maybe we can use it to get Dave's lighter? If not, I'm hoping that it is good on any Bic lighter product and I'll get another one of the Bic multi-purpose lighters.

Good Luck to all!
