Unbelievable! Wow, how awful. This situation confirms how brutal the cigarette companies are, and how horrible it is to smoke!
Be proud caligirl of your 205 smoke free days   Right on!

When I was a smoker I registered with Marlboro to get coupons and promotional item's.  Well when I quit I didn't think that I needed to do anything.  I got a Penske racing package in the mail yesterday for two free tickets to a indy race on Aug 23, all I had to do is RSVP to get them.  I'm a big auto racing fan.  Was going to take my brother who is a amateur racer.  When I called to RSVP I was asked if I am a smoker.  I informed this person on the phone that I had just gave it up, but supported their company for 20-25 years.  After gathering more information about me, she informed me that this offer was only for smokers and I was no longer eligible to receive the tickets.  I'm so disgusted.
