How much do you pay for an "everyday" cigar?
 
I found the results of this poll on the Famous site when searching for info on Vega Talanga Corojo cigars. You can check out their results here if you like. I wondered what the results would be here.

I guess mine wouldn't fit into that grid as I'm at $2-$5 range.

I can dabble down into the $2 range but I think generally I go in the 4-7 area.

That's just silly. It's just a poll, not a science... Now go find your pants!

Same here, I try to stay under $6.00, especially for "everyday" smokes, but my range varies significantly and I love cigars on sale!

I try to target $125 - $150 for a box of 25, so that would be $5-$6....

My everyday cigars cost 78 cents, so I guess I'm a cheap crotchety geezer.

As of late Im smoking more of my higher end stuff. I figured I might die tomorrow so I might as well enjoy what i have.

AD720 10-26-2008 09:09 AM

Re: How much do you pay for an "everyday" cigar?
 
I think I would fall into the $4-7 range, but since I buy almost everything on sale or at the devil site I am really in the $2-4 range.

Interesting. May I inquire as to which cigar that is please? I'm a cheap bastard with an inquiring mind.

On weekdays I stick with the $2 to $4 cigars as a habit! One the weekend anything goes!!!:ss

I too like saleGars! I tend to stay in the $2-$4 range. I am working on trying different brands and vitolas. It took awhile to get an understanding of nc flavors and I am in the learning curve for cc.

Well, I can't just hit one of those buttons though, now can I??? If I hit the $2-$4 button, I am lying every time I smoke a cigar that cost me $4.35 and If I hit the $4-$7 button, I am lying every time I smoke a cigar that cost me $3.74!

Help me....

I prefer a bit on the higher end , but not to high . You only live once . Might as well smoke the good stuff.;)

Re: How much do you pay for an "everyday" cigar?
 
I fly around $5 for one of my usual cigars, I'm running a little low on them right now... Better go see what dan has at newhavana

bobarian 10-26-2008 10:24 AM

Re: How much do you pay for an "everyday" cigar?
 
I guess I may average $5-7 a smoke. But one of my go to smokes(3 a week) is the CFO #7. 50cents! But I am a sick bastage when it comes to cigars. At yesterday's herf I went from a Camacho 10th anni to a Punch Punch, then a CFO #7 lonsdale. And then went Cuban again. I like the change from mild to medium to full. I almost never go full, full. I am just weird that way. :hn

I like that way of thinking.
What's that 78 cent cigar ??

Ashcan Bill 10-26-2008 10:37 AM

Re: How much do you pay for an "everyday" cigar?
 
My typical everyday cigar falls into a $4-$8 range, so for poll purposes I'll go with $4-$7.

I guess it depends on the fx rate. :D

kayaker 10-26-2008 11:15 AM

Re: How much do you pay for an "everyday" cigar?
 
Well I don't really some everyday, but I would guess somewhere in the $5-10 range. At least, that's where I'm trying to keep it.:ss

troutbreath 10-26-2008 11:33 AM

Re: How much do you pay for an "everyday" cigar?
 
Torano Exodus 1959, b/w $5 & $6, is my go-to smoke. But, I occasionally go higher, so I'm still alright in the 4-7 range.

zmancbr 10-26-2008 12:05 PM

Re: How much do you pay for an "everyday" cigar?
 
Honestly most of my cigars cost about $8 each. But I do love some nice $4 smokes. For my everyday smokes I would say the average is about $7-9

I just love smoking the good stuff... its a blessing and a curse. :rolleyes:

ca21455 10-26-2008 01:34 PM

Re: How much do you pay for an "everyday" cigar?
 
The average price for all my cigars is $3.78. This is the sum of all the boxes and samplers purchased over the last couple of years divided by the total number of cigars. I purchase everything on sale or shop around for the best deal.

Re: How much do you pay for an "everyday" cigar?
 
I keep a bundle of decent under 3 bucks a stick for working around the house and out on the water ,reason if I drop it in the drink or on the ground or I wreck the stick it doesn't piss me off as much as if it were a 20 dollar stick

WyGuy 10-26-2008 02:15 PM

Re: How much do you pay for an "everyday" cigar?
 
My everyday smokes are in the $5-$8 range.

AriesOpusX 10-26-2008 03:50 PM

Re: How much do you pay for an "everyday" cigar?
 
I'm in the $2-4 for everyday smokes at work and what not. Weekends relaxing at home can be $20+ a stick.

Re: How much do you pay for an "everyday" cigar?
 
before shipping and discounts, the taboo twist is my go-to for under 4, after a littlie more, that's just the way it is.

groogs 10-26-2008 03:59 PM

Re: How much do you pay for an "everyday" cigar?
 
I had to go with $2-$4. I don't have a specific everyday cigar, but the majority of smokes I cycle through every day are in that range.

Scottw 10-26-2008 04:21 PM

Re: How much do you pay for an "everyday" cigar?
 
I look for relatve values like Oliva brand. High rating,nice pricetag. I guess I'm around $4-7

BirdDok 10-26-2008 05:15 PM

Re: How much do you pay for an "everyday" cigar?
 
I don't have a specific every day cigar, but the ones I smoke regularly are about $4-5 a pop. Some are a tad under $4.:cb

My son however... is happy lighting up Sancho Panza Double Maduro at $3.00 a pop. He could live of those little buggers.

OK.. I gotta ask... what kind of cigar does a crotchety old geezer smoke for 78 cents??? :hm

ucla695 10-26-2008 07:20 PM

Re: How much do you pay for an "everyday" cigar?
 
I only smoke on the weekends, so I don't really have an everyday cigar. If I smoked more during the week, I'd like to keep it between $4 to $7.

gettysburgfreak 10-26-2008 08:38 PM

Re: How much do you pay for an "everyday" cigar?
 
Since I average about 2-4 cigars per month, I try and buy only higher end stuff allowing me to let them sit.

smokin5 10-26-2008 08:51 PM

Re: How much do you pay for an "everyday" cigar?
 
Since I average 15 or more cigars a week, I can't be blowin' serious money on the "everyday" smokes. I probably spend $1.25-$1.75 on my afternoon smokes, saving most of the good ones for evenings & weekends.
Thank you, CBid!

:tpd: I fall in this exact category.
Although when I'm at work I smoke a lot of $2.00 stogies such as A. Fuente Curly Head Deluxe Maduro's etc. This is because I'm a FF/Paramedic and can be called out at any moment. I don't mind tossing a $2.00 stogie but a $4-$8 kind of bugs me. At home I'm in the $4-$8 as far as everyday cigar.

Re: How much do you pay for an "everyday" cigar?
 
Lately, I've been on the high end of the range of this pool, my motto is "Life is too short to smoke cheap cigars.":ss

I do smoke all ranges of cigars but my regulars are on the high end. I don't smoke cigars anywhere near as much as I used to, there are days that I don't smoke one at all.

Da Klugs 10-26-2008 09:44 PM

Re: How much do you pay for an "everyday" cigar?
 
Depends on the day.

The label doesn't apply to my frame of reference. Lunchtime smoke is probably the closest. Ranges from $ 3 to $100. Again it depends on the day. :)

Typical day... $ 5-7.

SmokeyJoe 10-26-2008 10:52 PM

Re: How much do you pay for an "everyday" cigar?
 
I don't normally smoke EVERYday... but my regular smokes are in the $4 to $7 range. :ss

Re: How much do you pay for an "everyday" cigar?
 
I went for the $4-$7 price range. My typical "everyday" cigar usually falls in at about 5-6 bucks.

The Professor 10-27-2008 07:50 AM

Re: How much do you pay for an "everyday" cigar?
 
I don't smoke every day; but I'd say that the majority of cigars I smoke when I get the chance are between $4-7. Except when I get to smoke poo. :D

Those of you who have not tried them should give the CFO Craffiti a try
It's not a Tat but it's a damn good smoke for $2.
They also have a line that's not listed on thier site called "Magus" $50. for 25
And that is one Good potent smoke!
They don't come wet and young like the #7's

Totemic 10-27-2008 11:19 AM

Re: How much do you pay for an "everyday" cigar?
 
I'm betting there's a very strong correlation between how much you smoke and how much your "everyday" cigars cost.

I can't imagine smoking 4+ a day at $5+ per cigar. That's $7300/year on cigars alone if you smoked four $5/cigar a day.

I'm at about 1 to 2/day and I cringe when I have to toss a $5/cigar unfinished.
