Tomasa Quintana says
4 people told e this was a SCAM…..trying to register 3 times proved they were right. But now you have ALL MY INFORMATION….I smoke Marlboro….well after today I used to.
bonnie knowles says
Its not a scam. I’ve won two trips to the ranch. Bandanas, and I just recently won that week four portable bar. My facebook has proof!
Kasey says
i won a consolation prize- a cordster headphone wrap
sarah says
I received an email saying they were sending a “gift” for entering…. SO confused
Richard Matthews says
Its a crackle zippo lighter
Pastaman says
I have been entering Marlboro sweepstakes for as long as I can remember and as long as I kept trying I always won something. Today I was notified that I won $190.00 Portable Bar. These contests are on the level and a joy to enter.
Alexis Z says
This is NOT a scam. I just won last weeks prize the RainMen Portable bar. Also, for those of you who got the email telling you that you were getting a gift for entering-I received the same email. And yesterday I got my gift in the mail-it’s a neoprene wine bottle cozy/carrier in all black.
As to everyone who is saying Marlboro’s contests are a SCAM, you are absolutely wrong. I have won several prizes from them through the years (as well as gifts-I’ve gotten a deck of cards, personalized set of throwing darts, ashtrays, dice game, etc….) as small as an ashtray to an inflatable fishing boat. I also have 2 dear friends who have won the ranch trips. One was able to go & had a great time (everything included as well as airfare). My 2nd friend was unable to go so Marlboro gave them $5000 in cash instead.
So I’m not sure why you say it’s a scam. Go to Marlboro.com and register. Then start entering the contests they have going. The Break the West contest ended a few days ago, but there is still 2 weeks left in the Biggest Night contest. You can try to win a trip to Las Vegas by entering their creative portion of the contest (that requires you to submit either a written, photo or video response to that week’s ‘challenge’) or you can enter the 2nd portion of the contest that only requires you to click a button to enter (this is the portion where I won the Portable Bar). This week’s prize is a portable DJ system & next week there is a different prize to win).
Also, once you are register at Marlboro & give them your tobacco preference they will offer you coupons on a monthly basis (which I always receive). You can also create your own brand(logo) and they will sometimes out of the blue give you something with your unique brand on it. My husband received a pint glass, my brother-in-law got a baseball cap.
I hope this info helps & eases your mind that you were somehow scammed.

I got and email 2 days ago saying I won on 10/29 and it will be delivered by FedEx any day and has to be signed for. Won a trip to the ranch before and a boom box for my I pad and all kinds of other stuff but don’t know what this is. I checked the tracking # and it says it weights 0.2 lbs. Just waiting to get it and see what it is.

I have won a trip to the ranch too, a few years ago! It was amazing! I got luggage, coats, boots, camera’s… tons of awesome stuff! The ranch is beautiful! We went in February… I was thinking it would be so freakin cold. But it wasn’t! All you can eat, drink and tons of activities. You will thoroughly enjoy this! Whoever you take…. will have the time of their life!
Hope says

nichole says
Any idea what the arv would be for the crackle zippo lighter?
Jodi says
I’ve entered every single promotion, contest etc. for over 25 years and havent won anything … The only thing I’ve ever gotten is the free coupons … seeing other people on here win many trips to the ranch, gifts and prizes depresses me … same names all the time are winning … today is the last day I will enter anything after reading the comments here
Robin says
Definitely not a scam. My husband won a trip to the ranch about 3 years ago, before that got a Canon point and shoot camera, we’ve won zippos, glasses, cups, and I just got an email yesterday that my “gift” was shipped, which is the Cordster Headphone Wrap. I tell everyone to register with Marlboro, hehe. I just wish we could go to the ranch again…
Hope says
I won parrot wireless speakers in a prior contest valued at $1,700, I received a form 1099 misc to file on my taxes & those speakers are incredible. I know several people that won the ranch trip which sounds amazing & I really hope be so lucky someday! There is nothing bogus about it! Don’t enter, it’s a better chance for us! Haha
Terri W says
Marlboro is NOT scam. I have been to the Ranch, my daughter won and took me. It was the best trip I have ever, ever, been on. You are treated like yo are royalty! Literally.
Myself, I have won, cameras, lighters, tents, boots, jackets, cards..the list goes on. Anyone saying Marlboro is a scam and thinks they are a scam, Please do quit entering, more chances for us!
Ryan says
I just won a prize today not sure what it is, I got a notification in my email its being shipped. And a few months ago I won a $200.00 GPS, a month before that I won a nice dart set. They have winners list on their site under official rules… I always win stuff from Camel too. Ive gotten countless Gift cards for may different places from them. And a 500.00 Visa gift card to use on whatever online, I got a new stove from Sears!
Brian says
So the black bag thingie I won was a wine bottle cozi… awesome!
Jeanne says
I just won a ION iDJ2GO DJ System! I have been to the ranch and hoping that one day I get to go back! It was AWESOME!!!!
Linda says
Not a scam…my niece has won 2 trips to the ranch in the last 5 years. And a co-worker’s wife won..they went this past fall. The consolation prize people are talking about being shipped..is a Cordster Headphone Wrap. I also won the bandana..mostly small things over the years..HOPING FOR A TRIP TO THE RANCH. All you people that think it’s a scam, stop playing so I can win!
stephanie says
Can anyone tell me what’s in the Afterhours kit? We just won one, but nowhere does it tell us what’s in it, so we have no idea WHAT we won…anybody know?
stephanie says
It’s not a scam. We have never won a trip, but we have gotten two pair of sunglasses, darts, two bandanas, coasters, a zippo lighter and other goodies. We also get coupons pretty often, so we keep visiting the site.
