    Nice guesses so far guys. I won't say who's in the lead, but come on people, there's just over a day and a half left in the contest and only 2 participants so far.

    WHOA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! JIM, thanks for the prize! Knocked out practically all of my wish list in my profile! I'm especially drueling over the Anejo and Opus X!

    I don't consider any of these yard-gars man! You smoke some good shiz-niz! Congratulations again, and thanks for the package!

    Glad you enjoyed the selection pal!!

    My apologies for the packaging though. Hope they were all in good shape. The P/O was out of anything else smaller than a breadbox and I didn't have any packing peanuts or bubble wrap.

    LMAO, I know who's not in the lead. In my defense, if you call Vasco, the price has gone up.

    I won't say who's in the lead right now as there are still ~ 15 hours left in the contest, so I need the 3 guys who have guessed so far to PM me their addresses so I can get the package off tomorrow. Otherwise, it'll have to wait 'till next weekend as I'll be in Montreal this weekend. I'm NOT shipping this package from Canada.

    Also, to anyone else who guesses, please PM me your addy as well for the same reason.

    Default And The Winnnnnnaaaaaaaaahhhhhhh!!!!!!!

    Is FunkyCold5, with all questions right (as did Hefty) but was closer on the weight. Chris, the answer to the Xikar question IS $125. It may be $150 now, but it was at the time of the "Cigar Prices in Montreal" post. However, I am quite impressed that you know the name of the store. Was that another successful search, or do you actually know of the shop?

    OK, back on track, so it comes down to the tie-breaker between Funky and Hefty. Hefty guessed 219 lbs and Funky guessed 224. My actual weight standing in my underwear (as of 45 minutes ago) was 226 lbs. Now, I'm weighing in tomorrow in Montreal and will get my card stamped. I'll scan it and post it here on Tuesday when I get back (actual W/W weight will probably be in the vicinity of 228 or 229 as I weigh in fully dressed, jeans, belt, etc).

    So, congratulations to Andrew, and a package should be winging it's way to you today via USPS Priority Post. I don't know the DC # as I ran out of tags home so I'll have to get some at the P/O. I won't be having access to a computer this weekend so you'll have the package before I could post the DC # anyway.

    Thanks to all for participating, and Andrew, hope you enjoy the package.

    Have a great weekend all.

    Jim

    Damn, Newf, are you saying you can't drop another 10 lbs before tomorrow??

    Great contest, Newfie, congrats on the weight loss and the 1000 post milestone as well!

    Woo HOO!!!! Thanks Newfie. Congratulations on your weight-loss. I kinda figured as you get closing to your desired weight, it'll be harder and harder to lose the pounds. So I factored in the percentage lost last time and reduced it.

    Thanks again! I'll be in WV skiing at Canaan Valley, so I can't wait to go home and see a nice package waiting for me.

    Just did a little searching. I've never been there.

    Congrats FC5 on the win and Newfie on the continued weight loss!
