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 !

That's BS ! You should be able to document any mold/mildew issues with pictures and a written proposal from the contractor.... one for just the roof and another for roof and mold work (if needed) .


even after I was so nice ?

So mad at my bank!! Back in Feb I signed up to get the credit builder secured bank visa to help build my credit so I could buy a house next year. It is not reporting as a credit card but as a debt I owe to the bank as in possible bounce checks or whatever!!! Says I have NO credit cards! I called and they said they do itthat way to help me cause if I list too much credit cards it hurts my credit worthiness!! BS!! Cant get JCP or macys or even Lowes because they say I owe the bank money!!! How is this helping me build credit!! Now if I cancel it they keep my $500 deposit and it goes against my credit report that I closed it as if I couldnt handle the debt!! NEVER go through Armed Forces Bank!!! Letting this roll over to the unsecured credit when it matures and looking for a real credit card!!

I'd go in there and tell them they hurt your credit and you want them to correct their error

tell them it's not their decision on what you get, you didn't sing up for that. If they weren't going to give you what you asked for then they shouldn't have completed the application.

tell them you want interest and damages as a threat

The last time they just sent me a Dollar General card. There was no place to choose and this time also. They just said I won. Do you mean i can just use the Dollar General Gift Card at Shell?


thanks a lot
No.
-You take the Dollar General GC to Dollar General.
-There is a display at Dollar General with various gift cards for sale.
-Pick out a gift card (not a re-loadable Visa/Mastercard/AmEx), but a gas GC (Shell in my area) or fast food GC (Burger King or Wendys or Little Ceasars in my area) or other gift card that isn't a debit card and take it to the register.
- Pay for the Shell, Burger King, etc. gift card with the Dollar General GC. If you are buying a $25 Shell GC, and only have $20 in Dollar General GC's, you will need to add another $5 in payment.

I usually buy a Shell GC with the Dollar General GC because I don't like the fast food and other gift cards that are offered at Dollar General.

Took 5 weeks to get it in the mail but I called at 4 weeks to ask where it was so they cancelled it and sent me another one. been 5 weeks and I still dont have that one!! Called and they said I will get it on the 16th. If I had known all this I would have went with the credit union where I have my savings. They offered it to me but I didnt want 2 credit cards going on my report just yet. Think I will open it now but I will make sure how they report it and make sure its what I want it to do.

I won the coupon and then the download. I don't know if we can keep winning or if that's that. but I keep playing. Congrats!
The Dove IWG allows multiple wins on the smaller prizes!

I've won 2 ea $5 Amazon GC's, the free product coupon, and 3 ea song downloads. It takes time, but at least I'm winning useful things. Bought a replacement air purifier filter from Amazon for $23.99(25 % discount on filters on Amazon for Spring) this am (and a book to take me over $25 for free shipping) using Amazon GC wins. Always fun.

Morning all, I need some help here. Just busted my losing streak woot but it's on Camel Embarrassment only me. Anyway iv'e seen all the problems people have had. The ? is i'm at the up2U part were it has a "Generate Virtual Card" button, do I click it? I want to use it for Walmart. Thanks for any help in advance.
Congrats on the Camel win! At least Camel is admitting to a problem now.

Quote from Sprokitz :
No need for thanks...... and BTW, Kim won a Twix yesterday and I got one this morn..... That's 8 total ! We're catching up to youLMAO
Congrats! Will Kim let you have any when the coupons come?

Quote from cw195850 :
Got the cardboard coasters from Marlboro today and the stainless steel mug from L&M in the mail today
Congrats!

Quote from sly6855 :
I got one yesterday to, that was 7 for me Big Grin
Congrats on the Twix win!

Quote from bornblondeey :
I got one yesterday and one early this am. I just do not post any more. What will I do when that is over? I shall be so sad. Good you got them, Over $100 in twix i won i think. or nearly that.
Isn't it great to have a win! Like the Dove chocolate IWG over a year ago, and the Mars M & M ones a few years back, I'll miss the Twix IWG. Even though I've only won 9 candy bars-so far!

Quote from Sprokitz :
Kim and I got the coasters, the green plastic drink glasses from Marbo and the SS travel mugs...which don't hold much cause the bottom unscrews to use as a cup.... or a good hiding place for your stash.
Quote from bornblondeey :
I got a clear with a yellow glass from Marb yesterday. Like an 8 oz size. Is that what yours was?
Sprokitz and bornblondey-Congrats on adding to your bar ware collections!

Quote from bornblondeey :
Just had a good contractor leave and another good one coming tomorrow. Maybe there is hope for this deck. Is your roof completed?
Quote from Sprokitz :
We actually have some glasses almost exactly like these but they're blue.... mis-matched don't bother me. and no, nothing on the roof yet, but I did convince the ins co to foot the entire bill . The roofers need 4 "good" days in a row before they will start. No snow, rain, wind or freezing temps. I think (hope) we're ok with no snow, and also with the freezing temps, but it seems to either be raining or we have some stronger winds
Hope that both of you have good contractors lined up soon and that the insurance covers everything without any more problems. hug

Gotta run, have a great day folks.
Almost forgot, Marlboro answer is TRUE, but I researched it and they are wrong in my opinion. Crazy Mountain got it's name from Native Americans. A women lived up there after her family was killed and went crazy. (like Dances With Wolves)
I agree with you.
