    Default Bobalu Sampler bargain

    On Edgeman's recommendation, I decide to give these guys a try. There is a sampler offer with free shipping in the advertisement section of the forum. Link is http://www.bobalu.com/fsfs.html. When you create an account and get on the email list, you should get an email with a $10 coupon code. My code was "facbk2013gc". Not sure how long it will take to get the email. That makes for a 6 cigar sampler shipped for $14.95. Not a bad deal.

    If the $10 one doesn't work, here is a $5 coupon referral link.

    There is some kind of referral program? My code is "REWARD-9912-0J410-XNYD". If you decide to try them, I'd appreciate it if you tried to plug my code in to get me some points. If it doesn't work, don't worry about it.

    Either way, let me know by reply to this thread if you ordered it, and later, what you thought of it. I'm curious to see the interest in bargains I post.

    I've tried these before. Not bad cigars. Thanks for reminding me. This sampler is cheaper than the $35 I paid before. I placed an order just now. When I pasted in your code, it told me it was invalid. You get a point for each buck you spend. Each point is a penny off next order. These are the guys who show a webcam vid of torcedores in their shop rolling the sticks.

    Were you able to get the $10 coupon code to work? I've been spending spare time lately "hunting" for cigar deals around $20 or so. I've been pleasantly surprised. Being that I can use my wife as another customer, I can get doubles. The 5 for $1 shipped Padillas at CI sold out before I could get her account info unfortunately.

    I watched the vids. They make it look so easy! I would have though bunching and blending to be more difficult. The wrapping, at least, looks like it takes some time.

    I hope you didn't give them your main email address. These jackasses are known spammers and when you ask and even beg them to remove your email address from their spamming list, they ignore you.

    They got the spam mail account. I take it you've not had a good experience with this business then CC?

    Frankly, I get spam from all the cigar sites though. Every once in a while, I see a good deal. Thompson is the really irritating one though. They force you to enter the phone number field, then they call you.

    Just got them today. Visually, they all look very nice. The smell from the bag was quite nice. The figurado in particular had a flawless construction. Looking forward to trying them.
