Back in the 70s and 80s, they put stamps in every pack, and they had a tract sized cateloge in the carton which allowed you to chose a multitude of crap, like camping equipment, kitchen items, just about anything, and if you collected enough stamps, you could order the item from the cateloge.
But, even if what you are talking about isn't a ciggaratte company marketing ploy, it seems to be the same ploy.
The B&H promo was analogous to the Marlboro miles.
Are you old enough to remember then gas stations gave out dishes? Or steak knives and towels came in laundry detergent?
Yes. I’m also old enough to remember ‘Please allow six to eight weeks for delivery.’
