So thanks to my Gas/ Electric companies screw up, they are alerting me that I have a $105 balance that I over paid coming my way... a year after I canceled service. So anyways, I now have $105 to put into my cooleridor, and not sure how to do it.

Just curious what you all would do in this situation.

Personally if I had an extra $100 right now it would probably get a couple fivers of the Viaje Holiday Blends...just my :2

Someone else somewhere else in here on CA put up this link...

I have it saved in "my favorites" in my browser menu because I will be making a purchase in January if they're still available....

What I would spend $100 on is based entirely upon what I already have, which is very likely not what you already have (nor necessarily want).

You could buy two 5 packs for $100 (may have to add a little from your own stash), but yeah.

If you don't have a nice cutter and lighter now wouldn't be a bad time to pick those up.

But if you're going cigars why not head over to Cigarsatyourprice.com and build yourself a nice 10-15 cigar sampler of smokes you want to try.

I'd just go with variety. Not too many sub $100 boxes of interest, for me anyways.

Are you a member of the CRA?
If not you should join. It's $35/year and they will send you two premium cigars too.
Then use the rest on some singles maybe?

If you bump your budget about $17 & bought today, you could get a box of DPG Blue Invictos..... I think that would be a nice option....

That's a great price. I prefer the Hermosos vitola, but that comes in at the same price.

Spend $50.00 and get a sampler,then spend the rest on what you like the best.If you are new to cigars I would not recommend a whole box,your taste will develop and you will be stuck with a box of just 1 brand.......

Here's what I have got for myself, so far...

5 x 601 Connecticut Toro (I hear great things about the maduro, but I LOVE connecticuts.)
5 x Brick House Toro
5 x Rocky Patel 1961 Toro
5 x Flor de Oliva Gold Toro

Leaves me at $79, so $21-31 to spend...ish.

I would drop the Flors, not worth the money, even at ~$3 per stick.

I've been diggin the LAdC Edicion Especials and San Cristobal Seleccion Del Sols of late, so personally I'd spring for a fiver of one. Then again, it is holiday time and I'd look to see if there were any good deals on Anejo 46s. Smoke one this Christmas/New Years, let the rest sit for the next year onward. This years batch of Anejos are smokin pretty good compared to last years fresh.

Still dont what the CRA is, or what it is about...

Kind of thinking of going to the B & M and buying a ton of singles.

They're basically a lobbying group that stand up for cigar smoker's rights. If you enjoy smoking premium cigars, you should be a part of the CRA.

Not a bad idea either, I always like supporting the local shops (so I have a place to go smoke in this damn cold weather!).

So, I made my own Cigar Monster Mashup sampler:

5 x 601 Red Label Habano Robusto
5 x Amilcar Perez Castro Robusto
5 x Carlos Torano Cameroon 1916 Robusto
5 x Carlos Torano Exodus 1959 Silver Robusto
5 x Famous Nicaraguan 3000 Robusto
5 x La Floridita Limited Edition Magnum
5 x Maxx by Alec Bradley
5 x Olor Fuente Magnum
5 x Perdomo 2 Limited Edition 2008 Robusto
5 x Tatuaje Havana VI Nobles

I feel that it's a good variety, 50 sticks for $140ish, less than $3 per stick...

And where do you all find the best prices on you DUHC's?

Check Joe's Jam on CI's site daily. The Unholy Cocktails show up on there pretty frequently for about $35 per 10 pack. Also, you can occasionally get a good price on cigarbid, though people usually bid them up around actual retail price. Other than that, occasionally CI drops the price of a box to $90.

That's a nice selection you've got there. The La Floridita Limited is a really nice stick after resting for a few months and the Tatuaje is one of my favorites.
