Retired: Marlboro Outwit the West Funny Farm

228 92 October 16, 2010 at 01:35 PM
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 !

Congrats! I would contact them too.

I asked the CSR if it was an age thing....she stammered then said "it is random".
nope
Thanks Jak! hug

Happy Easter FF!wavebounceSmilie
I dont think its an age thing. My cousin gets the royal treatment from them and he doesnt enter any contests but the send him stuff all the time!! He's 59. His buddy got an invite to the ranch a couple of years ago and hes in his 50's. He dosnt do sweeps either but has only smoked Marlboro. Maybe thats the difference??? I smoke Camel cause they have better coupons but prefer Marlboro. They smell better.... I have no loyalty except to my money!!! Roll Eyes (Sarcastic)

Never won anything from them, but I've purchased things from them. If you're asking if they're legit, then the answer is yes. Lots of deals for J&R get posted on SD. HTH
Hi thanks, I wasn't sure. I got this email earlier today, and couldn't figure out who it was from, then found another one sent on thursday in my spam folder, guess I'll call monday to find out if I won something.

"Please contact me at the phone number below.

Thank you.

I had seen several comments on here about it, I was talking to her anyway, so thought I'd ask. I have smoked Marlboros for 30+ years, so I don't think it is just loyalty either. laugh out loud

Several J&R sweeps have ended recently and then there's the weekly turntable one. Do you remember entering any of these? https://slickdeals.net/newsearch.php?forumchoice%5B%5D=25&q=J%26R&showposts=0

Surprise winning e-mail!
I think that I am a 2nd (or 3rd) chance winner since the contest ended on January 7th and SD'ers in the contest forum posted receiving wins in November.

"Congratulations on being chosen as a week 18 winner of the UPS Football Logistics Challenge!

You have won a COOLPIX L810 (Black)"

I asked for an acknowledgement that they have rec'd my confirmation e-mail. I am "guardedly excited". This is a much fancier digital camera than the COOLPIX that I bought a year ago last Christmas.

Good Luck to all!



Congratulations on this win and on the Camel! It must be the day for FF'ers to check on our e-mails!

Good Luck to all!
woot
Very nice win! Congrats!

Quote from KMA :
How unusual is it to receive a $4K gift card through email? Today I received (4) $1K virtual cards. Yes, they're legit - I sent in the affidavit last month. I was sorta shocked to see them there.
Wow!! Nice win! I hope it goes well...let us know.
Welcome to the Funny Farm!
