I'd say that when I buy I try to keep my average about $4. Some higher priced sticks, some lower.

smoking 4-6 a day I tend to lite up a lot of Flor de Olivia 8 x 52 bundles at $39 for 25 stx, so it's about $1.50 ea.

Depends on the day and the time of year (smaller cigars in the winter). Mostly $5+ in general.

I like those as well, but only after I "slowly" get past the first inch. I find if I try to rush it, I often ruin the remainder.

I pay about a buck each. I look for the steals and lowball bids on cbid. For example, in the last 3 weeks I paid a buck or less at cbid for fivers of

La Aurora Leoninos robusto
Fonseca Vintage Selection robusto
Punch London Club
Troya #36 perfecto
TdS robusto
Nestor Reserve lonsdale

Yeah, none of them are top shelf, but they are good everyday smokes.

I also nabbed a sixer sampler of Gran Habano robustos for $7, an eighter of Sol Cubano Cuban Cabs for $15, and a 3-pk deal that included 1 Pepin Black robusto + 1 Man-O-War Churchill + 1 Camacho 1962 churchill for $5 (cigar.com catalog offer).

Add to that the freebies from local B&Ms, and I am what you would call a damn cheep bastage. That's OK cuz I smoke between 1 and 3 per day on a tight budget.

If I was paying retail singles price it would definitely be in the 4-7 range but most of my everyday sticks are bought by the box. Box math gets them down to 3-4 bucks a pop.

I'm still waiting to hear what the $0.78 cigar is. :D



Me...under 2 bucks. Took me a while to find a decent "spread" of cigars at that price, but they are out there. Smoked quite a few duds along the way.

At the other end, I set my per stick limit at $8, CCs or NCs. As a workin' stiff with a lot of bills, it would be financially irresponsible of me at this time to pay more than $8 for something I am going to light on fire. Truth be told, I haven't found a cigar yet that I thought was worth $20.

Thanks ya'll! Interesting results so far, but c'mon... we have far more than 200 inmates.

I live in CA, an everyday stick will cost me between $7 and $10.

I strive for the $2-$5 cigar but here is my dilemna. I average that pricing but I also use the Devil Site so I actually am purchasing more cigars weekly so the volume is more proportionate to actual cost per cigar. Wish I could average lower volume but with prices lower on that site I fiind myself buying more cigars. My friends who talked me into this site should be hung!!

More than I should spend that's for sure.

Mail order folks can get a decent smoke for around two bucks... it is all about what you are willing to spend... for me I like cheap beers, Miller Lite... Some turn their nose up... Same is true for cigars, but I would rather smoke a great cigar then drink high end beers...

Don't have a "everyday" cigar but what I do smoke, the variety, Davidoffs, 1926's and such push me far North of the $12+ range. Right now and not counting herfs perhaps 3 cigars a week with the occasional 4th....expensive yes but I'm an old fart so I don't give a damn.

That was a very good deal. I paid $112.00 for my last box of the P1 and I'm sorry to say they taste rather warehousey, kind of dusty/musty.
