I don't shop at my local enough, the tax is unbearable. I do however stop at B&M's in NH whenever I am passing through. I definitely prefer supporting the locals, even if they aren't local to me.

I am lucky if I can get 2 for $45. I was in North Dakota and was so happy about the prices I was skipping to the cash register. even my wife said they were cheaper in the U.S.

Canada has by far the most ridiculous prices I have seen. Too bad, I really like the LCDH in Montreal but the prices just aren't worth the effort to go up and smoke more.

So to combat this, he stocks boutique cigars that you can't find online.

I do buy a lot of the cigars I smoke online but I also visit the store at least 3 times a week. I love the environment and the conversation. Where else can a 18 year old college student hang out with industry professionals, college professors, firefighters and a local judge or two

Couldn't agree with you more. :tu

Just to add insult to injury, not only do we have the highest taxes on cigars in the United States, we cannot smoke in any of them......

Re: I'm Very Proud To Say

I can't remember the last time I bought NCs online, but I can say I haven't bought any since the summer. The only exception is buying from a local store (New Havana) that does business online.

I even bought a box of Anejo 49s from my B&M for like $316, knowing that I could have gotten a better deal online. However, even though my B&M owner doesn't quite know how to maximize his business, I like the guys that work there (owner included) and all the "regulars" are super cool as well. I want to support the place to keep a cool place to smoke in cbus alive.
