I got hooked on the 27th. A bundle of 20 Casa de Puros Nicaraguans for $29.95. Supposedly 70% off MSRP. I bought two bundles of robustos as I need more slush pile cigars. It's hard to go wrong with Nicaraguan bundles. They might not be great, but they probably won't be bad either.
My Wife saw the CC charge and interrogated me, so I know I was charged. I'm wondering when they will ship. I don't have much experience with JR's.
Do they oversell their sale items? Or do they just ship after the holidays?

they used to charge and ship, with the holidays creating 3 day weekends hard to say how they will ship.

I got an e-mail reply with a tracking#. Should get my smokes today. They just never sent me a follow on e-mail after I ordered.
As long as I get my cigars, I'm good.

I agree that it was probably the double holiday.

It seems like things like this happen more often with many places because of the minimum two days of closed business in the two week period around Christmas/New Years.

UPS delivered my cigars at 8:45 last evening. Now I just have to shake this cold so I can smoke.
