What kind of prices can I expect in the islands?

What should I bring with me, What should I buy where?

The Cigars I like are in order below:

CAO C x 2
COHIBA EXTRA VIGOROSO XV 550
CAO Italia

I have no knowlege of cubans but tend to perfer medium to heavy smokes. Generally, I only some once or twice a week so I indulge in nice smokes when I light up. On the cruise I plan to smoke quite a bit. If I can save some money I will bring back what I can.

Thanks for the help.

First off, welcome to Cigarsmokers.

Second, you might want to post a profile or introduce yourself before asking questions. Will get a better reception and answers to your inquiries.

Cheers.
