And I'm supposed to be getting ready for duty!!! But, here goes....
First things first, if this pass started with a sharpie in the box, I didn't take it. Couldn't find one anywhere in the box. So if you don't have pen, get one because I'm on my last one.
2nd: Call me crazy, but I can't find the "Special Bag" for the 2nd contest anywhere either. I reread the posts and there's no mention of one anywhere after it left enroute to the first player. So, I'll start another container for the 2nd contest bag and I'll include a sign up sheet. There's a brown cardboard box inside the main box with popcorn packing and sticks inside. signup sheet is on top (inside). This should work for the 2nd contest.
All, unfortunately, I don't have time to get to the tobacconist. There's some prime sticks in this pass already, but I'll have to skip those and go with middle of the road this time.

The Freebies: If you read my last post, you probably noted the condition concern. So, I tried something new... in the vein that one man's rockets are ... I decided to throw a bunch of cheapos (my rainy day smokes) in the box with the freebies for packing. The freebies that our hosts started the pass with are in freezer ziplock bags clearly marked "Freebies" The cheapos I threw in as packing are all loose. Please feel free to try some (of each type) of the cheapos. You may find a pleasant surprise that you decide to stick with for quickies or yard workers. If not, then at least they'll make nice smelling packing :0
If you pick #42 or #43 and want to know what they were after you smoke them, let me know when the pass is over and I'll tell you. Value? Well I don't want to give it away, but they're between #39 and #41 retail.
Will drop in the mail tomorrow afternoon.
