I am losing my traction on it. Just ordered a 5 pack of 601 blue box pressed robusto maduros from the monster. I'm slipping, and this is one fall I will thoroughly enjoy!

Yep.. Mine has came to a flat spot in the road for now.. But the more I get emails and catalogs in the mail, and can't forget all the time on here.. The slop is approaching fast!

Pretty soon you'll notice it goes from a gentle slope, to ice covered sheer drop off.....good luck with that.

:r Finances precluded me from buying a larger sampler. There's always next time!
I am lookng at the abyss. I see rainbows and unicorns.
That's hardly even a drop in the well. Look back at this post in a year or two then just laugh :D
Just be forewarned, it turns into a CLIFF real quick!!!

I'm preparing for the cliff. Have my first two humidors on the way and will start seasoning them right away. Will order my first batch of cigars a couple of days after that.

Save your money on humidors...buy a big cooler! And more cigars. Can't smoke the box!

You are all enablers. That's all I have to say about that. :P
I have only been here 8 months and wasn't a serious smoker until I joined, now I have like over 400 sticks, trust me you will find the money :r

The best part about slipping down the slope is that the fall doesn't hurt as much when you fall into delectible, delicious, scrumptious,mouthwatering, goodness that is the world of cigar smoking!
Enjoy the slippery slope bro!

Wait until you hit the dark side. Then it's boxes. And boxes should at least travel in pairs. :D

Mike with all the bombs you send out I figured you had been into cigars for quite awhile now....I've seen pics of your stash too....only 8 months??? Really?
My fear is smoking too much since I don't have the $ yet to purchase anything and my humi will be empty.
I did just cancel Gamefly so that's an extra $17 towards smokes, next is cancelling Netflix then Showtime and maybe my data plan on my phone.

Another 5er from the Monster ordered. Perdomo Grand Cru Maduro Robustos. As the old country song says, "I'm rolling downhill like a snowball headed for Hell..."

I'm learning about the slippery slope myself. Credit cards and a (seemingly) panoply of internet 'deals' are a dangerous combination. :o

Nice pick up. The 601 blue is a stick that I keep meaning to try. Perhaps on my next visit to the shop I will pick one up.

Lol, yep. A 5-pack is like almost tripping over your own feet. It's only a matter of time before you fall flat on your face ;)

I hate you guys.....ummmmm..I mean I love you guys, I just spent the last hour attempting to figure which box to order next. I glance over at my bed side humidor and i see its still full. So I grab another smoke, my 3rd tonight. Maybe I can make enough room by time it gets here. Since I could not pic just one I found 2...oh crap.
