    Welcome to CS from South carolina!

    Get a bigger humidor / coolerdor, If I know anything about Jamie (ashauler), you are soon to have about 10 new "Favorites" that you can't live without... leading to two or three coolers full of box purchases, and ultimately resulting in "Purchasing Bans" from the wife Unit!

    Thanks for the welcomes

    Purchasing ban!? I'm safe for the moment... The coversation with the wife went something like this:

    her: how much did THAT cost? (having already seen all the other stuff, but looking directly at the humidor)
    me: this cost about $100 and included those (pointing at the 30 5 vegas sticks that were included - which were conveniently right next to everything else I've bought)
    her: oh, that's not bad


    Atleast the initial purchase has been cheaper than my recent camera hobby - she never said 'oh, that's not bad' to ANY of those purchases... but she loves the pics I get & I already have atleast 1 that's set to be printed in a local magazine.

    Welcome to the board from MT!

    BTW, I love the pic you found of the "Cohibo"s. Different lengths and shapes all in the same size tubes, must be some sort of special edition collectors set!

    Welcome from the UK, nearly wet myself when I saw the Cohibos!
    I thought it was a tampon joke!

    Hah! I wish I had thought to take pictures when I bought them - the only pics I got were taken by my wife of me smoking in the cigar bar, and they turned out not focused... Little did I know that a $9 Cohibo would start all this...

    Welcome from West Texas. Just made a run south and west of your neck of the woods - from here to Boerne via Ozona on I10, then Fredericksberg, Llano, San Saba, Brady, and back to Midland. Beautiful country.

    When I first got into cigars, I fell for the ol' fake Cohiba too .

    Welcome from CA.
