Talking IPCPR in New Orleans, Again.

We're five weeks out from the International Premium Cigar and Pipe Retailers Association annual trade show. It's going to be here in New Orleans, again.

The IPCPR, its lobbyists, and cigar-smoking legislators have gotten together and gotten the IPCPR show a four day "tax holiday" from Louisiana's 20% excise tax on tobacco and 4% state sales tax. This means that all the exhibitors are now able to GIVE samples WITHOUT PAYING TAXES on them. This is huge, and was a point of contention with the organization, its exhibitors and the state.

There's a thread about it in SP.

But just as important
Cigar Weekly is again hosting its IPCPR Herf on the Tuesday night of the show.

I posted it on the CW Events Calendar and on Facebook; we already have 15 commits, and I'm so stoked, I've posted this in this forum, too.
Coming to the show? Post on that thread. Coming in just for the herf??? AWESOME.




Sue having a great time.
