Long story short. I moved to the pipe to try and save money vs. cigars. Recently gave up the pipe, got stressed and picked chewing back up.

I'm having a hard time justifying spending money on tobacco because we have a new baby on the way.

I've got two weeks of vacation coming but would like to come down a little from the high octane nic that Cope gives. I'm planning on using my vacation time to come down the rest of the way.

I'm looking for a box/bundle of smokes that are ready to go for around $40-$50. Otherwise, if any of you have some smokes you want to get rid of shoot me a PM.

I've been out of the game for over a year. What's being offered these days that might impress me?

Mediuim - Medium full | 46-48 ring gauge | 5.5" - 7.0" | Anything but Mexican

Thanks allot.

Send me your addy in a PM. I'll send you some Gran Habano Vintage 2002. It is phenomenal for the price.

Boli,
I just topped a thread, now it's been since March, but bargain sticks are often still bargain sticks.

As I remember, Maria Mancini was popular here in days past, and they're still a bargain around $40-50 per box at J*R.

I'll second this. They are a very good value.

Another I like are the Puros Indios Riserva Maxima which are now $40 to $50 a box and Puros Indios Viejo which run $30 to 45 per bundle.

Thanks for that. What you said makes allot of sense.

I forgot about those. At one time, they were one of my go to cheapies.

If I smoked more, I'd be all over the Victor Sinclair stuff on CI. they've got a good range, from mild to medium/full, and all of them ~50/box or less (if you get them on C-bid!)
