Pics of today's La Aurora Event

Just thought I'd share a couple pics from our La Aurora Rolling event today, for those who couldn't make it, and many thanks to those who came!

First picture is in our humidor (L to R): Joe McDonough (Humidor Associate), Frank Speciale (Owner), Gary Griffith (Humidor Manager), and Rene from Miami Cigar.

Next up is a picture of Frank and Eduardo, the Master Roller with Miami Cigar. He made us a bunch of really great smokes!

Hope to see some of you at our next event, to be announced soon!

Yep. I'm in the blue shirt. I'll post pics of all 3 of our humidors sometime late today. Contractor still doesn't have all the shelving in our new one, so I can't get all the inventory in yet. Even so it was a nice day with plenty of free cigars and free beer.

I'll try again and maybe ask my wife to take them. She seems to do better.

Here's our Glasgow, DE location

This is our People's Plaza shop. I'll try to take decent pics of the other two (especially the big one) tomorrow.

:smiley36: ..no worries!

Yes, a little blurry, but not blurry enough to make me jealous! Ah man, I just flat out live in the wrong state and the wrong location....:smiley21:

My one and only cigar shop (literally one) in a 100 mile radius...you could probably count the number of boxes they have in minutes.

Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa.... :smiley36:

Thanks for the posts Gary, and welcome to the board. Great to see you as an active poster here... :smiley20:

Yeah, saw that. The question is, is the five pack in one of the special five pack chests? Which is 5 pack version of the big box.

I have one for the double corona, It's pretty cool.I have a few extra double coronas and torpedos in the humi also.

I liked the idea of the double crown maximus 5 packs. May have to consider one of those.

The fiver is just loose ones from the box. I think I might have one of those chests left. Let me check............(walks into humidor)............yep, there's one there. You better check that Fiver page again. :smiley20:

You must not have looked closely enough. I moved a little special something over there for you: nhcigarfan special box

Yep. I'm evil. :smiley17:

That's my middle sized humidor. The new one is much bigger, though admittedly not fully stocked yet. Now if I can get this darn camera to work today I just might take pictures of it.

That's cold Gary. :D

Does this mean you're going to be putting up custom specials for regular customers? ;) Now that would be too cool. This kind of personalization is unheard of at most stores and is in fact one of the reasons why I still buy some of my boxes from Eric at the Red Carpet back in RI.

Since there's two boxes, (the chest type box is what I want) how about a two box split! lol

Now thats how you directly advertise to your target market. :smiley20:

No kidding. I already have one of these boxes in double corona. One of you guys should jump on these robustos. You will be happy you did.

Here's the Hockessin location

Still only about a quarter of the inventory in it, and the shelves need to be adjusted, as well as the rest of the shelves installed. At least this will give you an idea.

Gary, do you get an employee discount? If so; will you marry me? :smiley36:

Well, as the cigar manager I get all the samples the reps give, and a bit of a discount when I buy boxes. I just get a kick out of hanging around in the humidors helping people.

My wife says to tell you marriage is out of the question.
