Excellent spending spree there darkninja.

I'm going to be picking up a bundle of Flor de Oliva Gold's today at my local B&M, as I've been cigar-less for a week now and cash is tight. A few good sticks are in the future, but I think its time for an everyday cigar purchase.

Cheers!

Just got done smoking a RyJ Habana Reserve gorda. Man this is a RyJ i could love. Very well made, smooth and rich with a hint of sweetness. The aroma was incredible.

As for pick ups: I grabbed 2 Power Rangers for $35 from a local B&M. These will rest for a long time.

EDIT: Cigarbid had a box of Joya De Nicaragua Gran Consuls for $77.50 quickBuy. They go for $107 on Famous. I have one in the box but have not smoked it yet so I had to hold off on the purchase. It is probably one of the most intimidating sticks I have seen for some reason.

If you are not doing the Cbid thing then you guys need to. I found a box of 25 RP The Edge Missile maduros for $75. CI had it for $105 a box.

Beware though, there is a reason they call it the Devil Site.

If anyone wants to do a box split let me know. I really want to get my hands on some Don Carlos' and maybe some DPG My Fathers. Also looking at Oliva Masters Blend and Ashton VSG. Cannot swing a whole box myself.

I did Cbid for a while several years ago and managed to extract myself from there. Back when I was using though there wasn't a buy now option. But why on earth does Cbid have prices cheaper than CI? They are the same damn company. That just really pisses me off. You used to even get CI stickers and literature with your Cbid shipment.

I've only bought one thing from Cbid so far, a Gurkha Fuerte XO, which was awesome. When I bring a few dollars more in from my school job, I'll probably hit the devil site more often.

Smoked a Joya de Nicaraga Antano Gran Consul (poor draw but nice flavor) then a Nub Habano followed up by a Perdomo Lot 23 robusto. Pretty nice day in Boston today so I took advantage of it.

Cbid is awesome. I just saw a box of 5 Vegas Gold robustos for $37.50 on QuickBuy and they go for $55 on CI. I would start to bid on stuff but I would get carried away even more. I need to eat.

Yea, Thanks to Cbid I have very little in my bank account. But my humidor is full and have a tupperdor for the overflow.

That is the best part about a coolidor. You probably already have a cooler sitting somewhere in your house. You only have to move it somewhere inside for temp control. Just need to clean and 'organize' so that it ends up in a closet somewhere.

With SCHIP coming I finally got bold:

Boxes of Sanco Panza Double maduro, Torana Exodus 1959, Perdomo Habano Corojo, and Gran Habano #5.
I also have a box of RP Edge Missile maduros coming as well as a sampler of ESG, Anejo and Opus X.

I also have some Anejo Sharks coming. Running out of room fast and hoping my new box takes 2 weeks rather than 3.

Smoked a Perdomo Habano Corojo robo today. Such a beautiful smoke IMO.
