mushrat Posted July 23, 2007 Share Posted July 23, 2007 Its astounding how the lot of you will happily give your name and address to the first person offerign free samples. A guy with 1, count em 1, post. Do you also send out your name and addresses to anyone who calls and askes for it? or emails you for your personal information? Think folks. If this is a sham you have just given out your personal info to someone who may be building a mailing list, and e-mail spam list, just about anything. If your mailboxes fill up wih crap, ya get what you deserve.I also was amused by the same people who were tearing opd and smiley a new one, begging for samples. You really think someone you just called a their, liar, and a cheat is gonna send you free goodies? Please, a little dignity and common sense. If you can't afford tobacco, you may want to find another hobby, but man, talk about sad to see the mad dash for free stuff....Sorry to be so blunt, but the whole gator thing made y'all look like you been p'owned.

ioannisds Posted July 23, 2007 Share Posted July 23, 2007 Hahahaha... It's like a bunch of old people here. Old folks are all about the free stuff. I saw a commercial the other day to sign up for some diabetes newsletter (and I'm sure a lifetime of spam and junk mail). If you signed up NOW, you got a free ENERGY BAR. WTF? A goddamn energy bar that I can get at the store for a buck? You put the word free in front of ANYTHING, no matter who is giving it away, and people become rabid. I'm sure I'm guilty myself.

But $10 lasts a little less than a week. Plus I use quick lights so about 4.5 coals per bowl. My friends an I smoke 3 bowls a day, almost everyday. So it comes out to like $35 a week. So it costs about $1.65 per bowl.$.65 for coals.$1.00 for tobacco. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

quakerotis Posted July 23, 2007 Share Posted July 23, 2007 I feel so cheated, yet even more stupid. I was too mesmerized by the idea of free samples than "wait? one post? hell no!" plus I saw other people were PMing the guy, so I figured I would too. oh well. If I get a bunch of porn catalogs in the mail from AZ, I'll just let my pets use them as cage liners. Its safe to say I've learned a lesson.
