Free Marlboro Gift

[trax1]

I got a pack of Marlboro today and it had this paper in it, it said if you call you get a free gift, so I called and there were 6 things to choose from, the first was a Coleman wide flashlight, the second was a sleeping bag, the third was a branding iron(I don't know why anyonw would want that), the fourth was a Zipo lighter, the fifth was a Weber Grill seasoning kit, and the sixth was a butane Zipo lighter.  So if any of you want one of these, and it is free, just call 1-800-MARLBORO promo# 3777.

at which point in time you go on their mailing list and you will get a couple of coupons from them every year for the rest of your natural life.

Yeah exactly, everyone who smokes loves to get those coupons, my dad got one a few days ago for $5 off a carton beacuse it's his birthday.  They also send you alot of cool stuff, like I got a set of dominos, a nice pool cue chalk holder, a nice ash tray, a bottle top opener, and so on, although I'd rather get more coupons then those gifts.

oh man you should see my collection of Marlboro stuff.  I worked out of my house till the program shut down so I kept all of the promo stuff at home so I could ship it when it was needed.  When the program I was on shut down I asked them what to do with all of the stuff and they said 'keep it'

I wound up with 3 cases of t shirts, ashtrays, table stands, etc...

Honestly working for them for the 2 years I did was the sweetest job EVER..

Funny thing is that "gift" means "poison" in Norwegian, so the title of this thread has a rather fitting double meaning to me.

I always thought that with the money they spend on those promo gifts would be appreciated more by the customers if they just used it sending people coupons, I know I'd rather have the coupons then the gifts.

Smoke! Smoke! Smoke!(That Cigarette)
    Now I'm a fellow with a heart of gold
    And the ways of a gentleman I've been told
    Kind-of-a-guy that wouldn't even harm a flea

    But if me and a certain character met
    The guy that invented that cigarette
    I'd murder that son-of-a gun in the first degree

    It ain't cuz I don't smoke 'em myself
    and i don't reckon that it'll hinder your health
    I smoked 'em all my life and I ain't dead yet

    But nicotine slaves are all the same
    at a pettin' party or a poker game
    Everything gotta stop while they have a cigarette

    CHORUS

    Smoke, smoke, smoke that cigarette
    Puff, puff, puff until you smoke yourself to death.

    Tell St. Peter at the Golden Gate
    That you hate to make him wait,
    But you just gotta have another cigarette.

    In a game of chance the other night
    Old dame fortune was good and right
    The kings and queens they kept on comin' around

    Aw, I was hittin' em good and bettin' 'em high
    But my bluff didn't work on a certain guy
    He kept callin' and layin' his money down

    See, he'd raise me then I'd raise him
    and I'd say to him buddy ya gotta sink or swim
    Finally called me but didn't raise the bet!

    --Hmmph! I said Aces Full Pal -- I got you!
    He said, "I'll pay up in a minute or two
    But right now, i just gotta have another cigarette."

    CHORUS

    Now the other night I had a date
    with the cutest little gal in any state
    A high-bred, uptown, fancy little dame

    She said she loved me and it seemd to me
    That things were sorta like they oughtta be
    So hand in hand we strolled down lovers lane

    She was a long way from a chunk of ice
    And our pettin' party was goin' real nice
    And I got an idea I might have been there yet

    So I give her a kiss and a little squeeze
    Then she said, "Travis, Excuse me Please
    But I just gotta have a cigarette."

    CHORUS
