Marlboro is helping pay for my vape.

[txjim]

I'm still getting free stuff from my Marlboro account and I'm selling it on Ebay to help pay for my vape stuff. I just sold a Zippo lighter I got from them for free. It's kinda ironic that a cigarette company is helping me stay off the cigarettes. I'm laughing all the way to the bank. Is R.J. Reynolds helping anyone else?

They helped me quit by overcharging for their product. Not quite the same as you, but hey helped none the less.

..and you're promoting their brand this way..

Do you have anymore "helpful hints" about what I should or shouldn't be posting in the forum?

Yup, but you don't wanna hear it

He's not really promoting anything. Chill out.

Well, could you tell me how to delete this thread? I really didn't intend to "promote" cigarette smoking. Help please?

Hee Hee. Great story. I hate those basterds.

Years ago (most won't remember this...), the cig companies used to put coupons in the packs that you could redeem for wonderful gifts out of their inflated catalogs. As a kid I was saving my Father's coupons for a new bike. After the poor guy smoked like a gazillion cartons I gave up.

I remember the coupons. My first wife and I saved them to get a new baby carrier for our new baby back in the 70s.
(Ha, I like the name of your town. I live near Gun Barrel City, Texas.)

Don't worry about it. You aren't promoting cigarette smoking or a brand.

Personally, I find it ironic and hilarious!

Thanks Coldrake. Being a newbie I thought I was being reprimanded by a forum administrator for overstepping my bounds.

Dont delete your thread you have done nothing wrong at all . Sometimes people like to get their tighty whities in a bunch over nothing. I think it is fantastic that you are using the tobacco company for something good .

I believe I still have Winston coupons somewhere...thx for the reminder...lol

 

[Katmar]

I think it's funny, too. Take what you can. They stole your breathing for however many years. And created a terrible addiction.

 

[txjim]

I think it was Raliegh (sp?) cigs wife and I were saving coupons from. Of course, the items in the catalog required so many coupons that by the time we got enough saved for a baby carrier, we ended up needing it for the grandkids. Time flies when you're having fun.

Txjim. the forum Admin have red names and the moderators have green or teal names. It will clearly say Administrator or Moderator, under their names. Should you ever be reprimanded by one of them, for any reason, it's best that you protest in a PM and not on the open forum. Protesting an Admin or Mods decisions on the forum, can get you in a lot of trouble.

Sorry Jerry. I wasn't protesting. I was only asking how to remove the thread. I didn't want anyone else to get upset over it.

 

[txjim]

Can someone just remove this thread so I don't get called down again over it?

 

[The Ministry]

I can't see much wrong here, to be honest, but I'll delete the thread if you like - it's your thread after all, if you want it pulled I'll sort it.

There isn't anything wrong with it, as far as I'm concerned however, so it's welcome to stay. Up to you
