Flavor Of The Month Fotm

[ilikemyusername]

FOTM! sounds wonderful! but hotmail is no longer accepting messages through outlook for free ! something about %"s? whatever that means. i want to be part of it! but how...?

[Elky]

GUYS. IS SIGNING UP AS EASY AS JUST EMAILING NAME AND ADDRESS AND NOTHIGN ELSE?

yes

[indian_villager]

Neal is a damn good guy! He went out of his way to get me my order of a KM hafa and accessories! I can't believe people are ripping him off on this. He is going out of his way to shell out free samples every month to what I can only assume to be a ton of people! The whole Niayote thing I can understand the reason why he quit smoking, maybe the sample got to him after the incident. But other than that it is inexcusable!

[kornkitten42]

That sucks. I got a flavor of the month (mentos) Smoked a bowl, realized it wasn't for me, so it's in my "freeloaders want to smoke" pile. So when people I don't really care about want to freeload (smoke every night and not give anything back) I'll pull out my pile and they get to pick what goes in the bowl. I would never just give away or try to sell something like that unless I already tried it and didn't care for it

Same thing with those freebie sites- People order 20 things each and then try to sell them on ebay. while people like me get turned down due to these INCONSIDERATE people! UGH!

i havent heard that at all...but fuck whoever is doing that and ruinging such a great thing. thanks again neal, its been wonderful!

[Evil_Spork]

i knew some people who used to overclock that did that. manufacturers would send them hundreds, if not thousands of dollars worth of computer parts, and then they would use them a bit and if they didnt like them enough would sell them off to buy more parts. getting a sample to shisha to try and just selling it when it was given with the sole intent of the sample generating a review is total crap.

also i just signed up. i dont smoke hookah often enough to justify buying tons of flavors because they will just sit, but once or twice a month for review.. i think i can handle that

[crisbeatz]

I liked Mango enough to give it away to another. If it's great why not share it , not sell it. Geez, the nerve of some people.

[Voski]

damn Neal that sucks! I hope you can catch more of the people abusing this. What your doing deserves mad respect and I really appreciate it!

[The Devils Playground]

so all i have to do is give my name and shipping address and im in?

Yea dude just send a shipping address and you are on my man.

[The Devils Playground]

FOTM is cool! I don't care what it smells like but i'll still smoke it. How will you know otherwise? Still not tried mine yet but i'll get round to it

same here.. i dont care what it smells like, the smoke is the most important. id never sell a fotm becuase non nakhla shisha is rare here.. i savour every bit of it.

I am behind this week with that dam vacation. It will go by this weekend I will ship eevryone the same day so you can all get it at thee same time. Its Fantasia Blueberry this month and while supplies last pharohs Fruitopia.

Sorry for so many responses I will adddress as many of these as I can before I head to the gym.

Thanks, Neal

[shisha fan]

its sad to see that so many people take advantage of your generosity to make a few bucks. i`ll be sure to smoke and review my FOTM when i get it.

[The Devils Playground]

hey Niel, I fully agree with you.
I wanted to let you know, on the month that you sent out Pink Lemonade, I received two. I mentioned it on a post somewhere and just thought it was an error. Last month's Wild Mango I got two as well, so I think you have me in the system as a double and wanted to make sure you know that, so you aren't losing anymore money in your kind gesture. This past one, I did give my second one out to the folks of Loveshisha. I did this because I received two and they had none, so I thought that it would be a good gesture to give the extra to them to try and review.

Hope this wasn't a bad move on my part, but thought you should know before you send me this months, in case this is a system error.

Thanks again buddy for doing this, it is appreciated fully.

I still have a few doubles. I have to work on that. Just smoke with some freinds so they can try it and I am happy. Oh and don`t sell it. lol

Its okay if people get extra as long as they sharewe are still getting the job done. It needs to hit as many lounges as possable.

[The Devils Playground]

Thats fucked up man. Guys come on.
Neal I do have a q though...the exchange flavors game, what about that?

Explain? Drop me a message on what you mean on this. I will get to messages on here tonight when I get back. Today we are looking for a new location to open a lounge. Taking a grip of cash out so we can get a second location for a lounge. Theres a race in Vegas right now kind of a whos got the biggest Cock thing going on between 420 smoke shop and my self. lol we are both back down to 1 shop so its on like Donkey Kong. lol

I am striking with location #2 and he will be right behind me in a couple months so we have to start planning #3 as soon as this one get up. lol

Next one will be a smokeshop/ Tattoo studio I think if all goes well. lol

Oh yea its on. lol

[The Devils Playground]

Neal I do have a q though...the exchange flavors game, what about that?

I would suggest[1] that Neal is probably up to his ears in it. I don't suppose he would get upset about people exchanging flavours and stuff with each other.

I doubt Neal has the time to do much more than sending out all that packages. Must take ages given how busy he normally is.

JD

Its a job here just to run the biggest Hookah based shop/ now a lounge/ mailorder and we are looking to do yet more. lol

Exchange as in trade is fine with us. Do us a favor just try a single bowl. Like Mintos smells like crap but smokes and taste really good. If people gave it a bowl they more then likely would like it. If from even a small bowl they did not like it I would be cool. But just like hookah in the first place try it and see what you think.

[1] - I don't speak for, or represent Neal or Worldhookah© in anyway shape or form. This is just own opinion of what I think.

[The Devils Playground]

Thats not cool at all. The FOTM is the reason I bought a few tubs of Fantasia, without it I probably wouldnt have found such a good shisha company. Thanks Neal for helping me find my favorite brand of shisha.

Dude so many calls and email are like this one. This is why we started this in the first place. I want people to try new stuff. Mt dist said heres a new flavor its called Mintos you will love it. He does not know anything about hookahs and does not smoke but was just trying to sell me a box. lol well now we sell 250 50G boxes every 3 weeks and 25 25-G boxes in the same time period. It was funny because I was like fine I will try it. This was when we did not have $10.00 extra to waste on a gamble. Well because we tried it people buy the hell out of it here. In fact same with Watermelon. King was the big watermelon and I brought in AF and its the top seller I mixed that with Mintos 50/50 and now they are the top selling combo here.

All because we tried it out and did nto just say yea something new that will suck.

Okay heres a great example of of our comitment to the people trying new stuff.

KK and I had a falling out. She as far as I know is still on fotm. Its not there for my personal gain. Its there for you guys. Well and gals. lol I gain from people having our name in their faces and thinking great guy drop a buck or 2 with him. But in general Hookah made us what we are today so why not give back to the same community that keeps me from saying "Would you like Fries with that?".

As long as I am in the business this fotm will exist.

And Like KK said it was not for her. she passes it on to friends. Thats what I would love to see. Maybe someone else will try it and like it and go buy it rather it be from me or another site at least Afzal will prosper from it.

KK on a personal note if you are off drop me a line I will get you back on. We may have lost a few people when we moved the names on the database. If you are still getting stuff still cool.

Back to everyone else like I always say no one brand or one flavor will be loved by everyone so try stuff and see if you like it. Like I want so badly to smoke Tangiers but I can get it right to save my freaking life. I tried 2 bowls today and still not good for me. BUt I can say I tried it yet again and many people love it. 420 smoke shop has a lounge here in Vegas and the owner loves it. He has it dialed so he is happy. I smoked with him it was good I tried to do it my self and as usualy almost died. lol i will try again today when I get back in here. I will master the Mini bowl before its over with lol

[The Devils Playground]

Okay my final on this. At least for tonight anyways lol.

I saw alot of thanks I could not address every single one 1 at a time. But you are all very welcome. Thank Fantasia and Pharohs also when you get theirs. With out the sponsors this would still have that 100 person cap it started with.

As for catching more people. I made this post not to catch more but to stop it. I would love to see everyone get it try it and if they don`t like a flavor just post a bad / neutral review or Pos if they like it, and trade off or give away what they have left if they were not a fan. If they are a fan smoke away and buy more from your favorite retailer. That does not mean me that means HS MNH your local reailer us or who ever you can find that carries it.

Sales on Pink Lemonade have gone way up since FOTM aqccross the country. This info is posted per Randy from Fantasia. He expects Wild Mango will do the same. And they are getting lots of new retail stores asking for it so the ftm works for shisha makers so lets keep this a going. Fantsai said they are on the fotm as long as I want to run it.

Your information is never shared by us with anyone.

We will eventually send out ads with it. Yea its getting that big but we will still not share the list. If someone wants to drop an ad in there contact us and we can work something out if we deem fit for our customers. If you are releated to the industry you can probably talk us in to it. If you are a porn site save the request lol

I need to run to the gym.

Everyone have a great morning and enjoy this months FOTM again Fantasia Blueberry and Pharohs fruitopia.

Thanks for all of us at World Hookah, Fantsaia, and Pharohs.

[bjelder]

Just signed up, thanks a bunch!

I'm pretty close with the owner of a nearby lounge, and he's looking for a new retailer. I'll definitely pass your name on to him, and share my sample for him to try out.

Keep it up man!

[Snoopy1966]

The only time I have GIVEN the FOTM away is when I have sold other tobacco to some on the forums here, and I gave them a box of Mintos and Wild Mango because I was really late in shipping it off to him and I felt bad in my delay. I did not charge extra because I did get it for free. Otherwise I love the FOTM because it gives me a chance to try other tobacco I would not purchase.

[chromecarz00]

Again, mad props to you for doing this. I havent recieved my FOTM yet, should I be worried?

[nathan_Choi]

Make it worth while to people! People don't value anything free - like when you let a bunch of your friends into a movie theater for free, all you'll hear about the next day is how shitty the movie was and how it was a waste of their time. Add some sort of nominal fee to it, I say.

I'd like to join myself but I think I'm going to wait a while so my reputation is a bit better. Like building your rep in WoW or something, I suppose.

At the very least I really think you should charge people something - at least to cover shipping. I'd totally be down to pay a bit of money to have someone send me some interesting flavors each month. Im sure a lot of people would be too.

LOL thats what i said... I even volunteered to pay...he has an advertising campaign that he chalks it up to, if there was a fee less people would know about it...

I signed up I hope I made the list. I am like the go to guy for shisha with my friends. Got the Love Shisha smoked Root Beer Float with my friends. Everyone loved it. We are all psyched to get to try more flavors from those guys. We are busting on PBJ from Don Bubbas to try tomorrow.
