Welcome to the forum from the tip of MS. There are lots of good cigars to be had on a college budget. Your best bet on getting a good variety is the Newbie Sampler Thread II.

There is a minimum of $50 but if you wan't to spend less, then one of the sponsors may work with you.

Read the review threads and the "Today's smokes" thread to see what guys are smoking and what they think about them.
