You guys know when you go to a bar and somebody's handing out free cigarettes. Yeah, it's great when you've got a couple drinks down and you just want the cool feel of that tarry smoke in your lungs. But you've gotta give them your information so they can send you this crap every now and again. I've gotten some wasteful advertisements before, but this one is a hum-dinger. At first, you think, "Hmm, cool. They sent a pack of cigs." But no, it's a lie. All of that time, money, material, energy and effort that Joe Camel expelled is all for just a lousy coupon. A coupon that they could've mailed on a postcard or just posted on their website. So now, not only is Joe Camel killing us with his cancer, he's burying us in his packaging waste. For shame. Get it together Joe.
