Early Christmas Present

Well, I've only been here a few weeks and I haven't been a big contributer to the board (my grampa taught me not to open my mouth when I don't know what I'm talking about), but I've got a great story and I figured you guys would be the ones who would appreciate it.

I saw cigarbid.com mentioned on a previous thread and thought I'd go check it out. It looked like there were some pretty good deals on there, and as I was looking through I saw that one of the winning bidders was from my home town, and the initials were, coincidentally, my wife's!

Anyway, when she got home from work, I jokingly asked if she was buying cigars online and expected one of those "What the hell are you talking about?" looks. Instead, I got a "How the hell did you know I was buying cigars online?"

Turns out, she was talking to a coworker about how i wanted a small travel humidor to throw in my golf bag and he showed her to cigarbid.com. They looked around and found this

Rocky’s Cliffhanger Combo includes
- 2 Edge Corojo Toro (6”x52)
- 2 Edge Maduro Toro (6”x52)
- 1 5-Capacity OtterBox Cigar Caddy Humidor – Grey

She paid $22 for it and I don't know or care if she got a good deal. I just think it was awesome that she took the time to feed my newfound passion. Plus, since I caught her scheming, she is letting me have the package when it is delivered (She was planning on having the coworker store them in his humi til christmas).

So, that's my story. Has anyone tried either of these sticks? Also, I've read some good things about the otterbox, any opinions on that?

Thanks for your time.

Wow dude, your wife rules. I haven't tried either of those and I don't have an otterbox so I'll just shut up now.

She did good bro,nice box and the smokes will be awesome

Yeah that's sweet. When ever I grab a cigar my wife points at the door and gives me the gas face. (The face she gives when I let one rip).

That is awesome, I told my wife I wanted cigars for Christmas and she just rolled her eyes at me. :smiley29:

Yep - you'll like those smokes, and the cigar caddy is very nice also. Of course, you keep hanging around CBid and the boards and that little 5 cigar caddy will be tossed in no time at all...

now that's a good wife. i've been dropping hints to mine about getting an otterbox but i don't think i'm going to get it.

Ggiese, sad to say, you are correct man, you are correct.

Excellent wife and good smokes. I don't know anything about otterboxes.

Hey guys, thanks for the kind words. I definitely lucked out when I found the wife, and she always seems to surprise me when I'm least expecting it. The coolest thing about the whole deal is she knows the Otterbox is for golf days and she still got it for me.

A wife that doesn't mind cigars and golf....it doesn't get any better than this!

Now that's a good woman . I hope you'll reciprocate to her want's . My wife has bought me a box of cigars the last 2 year's for Christmas . :smiley20:

My early Christmas present from my wife is our trip to Las Vegas. So I suppose that includes a trip to Casa Fuente!! :smiley37:

The otterbox's are awsome. Life time warranty too. Money well spent. :smiley20:

The RP Edge Corojos are my favorite smoke.... and the Otterbox is awesome. I have a 36 count and I'm looking for a 10 count now.... stupid me, I gave my 5 count to my brother.

I would say your wife is a keeper... :smiley20:

I picked up the Grey 24 count there for $22.00 woo hoo. Since you posted this I have been watching. It was delivered today. I told my wife I got my first Christmas present. It will be great for herfing and such.
