I need help, if I'm not careful I'll be calling up Ditech before too long :D

but seriously, it's killing me not to be spending, but I simply don't have cash. and unlike last year, the wife and I are trying to be responsible, which sucks btw.

I'm with you there. I sold some samplers to pick up a few things, but as far as the rest of my $$$$, it's all going toward presents. :tu

Christmas? Bah!!! Restraint is for people who don't smoke cigars. What I need is more cigars. And maybe a bigger humidor. Embrace your OCD! :fl :ss

Do as I do.

Just tell yourself to be happy with what you got. And that the prices are absurd.... (I know.. I know.. I just tell myself this to keep from buying....) And do not for whatever reason look at the deal or the devil sites.

I haven't bought a single cigar since May.

Saving my money for our wedding (Next July... :fl ).... and all I gotta say is she better damn well appreciate it.. cus I'm going insane. :r

It's gets harder and harder to sit on the sidelines when the prices keep getting more and more attractive. Although I plan on spending the money on presents, I might have to pull the trigger on some sticks if there's something I can't pass up.

I need help too. After I swore not to spend anymore before Christmas, I ordered a bundle from Vegas de Santiago, then went in for a box of Diablo Picantes.

I would also be going in on some CC box splits but others had more sense and decided to wait until after Christmas.

I NEED HELP!!!

Is it bad that I just bought $100 worth of samplers from CI and had them sent to my work so I can bring them home and sneak them into the coolidor without the wife knowing?

Crazy? Hell...I do that just so my mailman won't think I'm crazy! He always makes a comment when another box from PA shows up, because he knows he's gonna get a stick or two from time to time. I can't imagine having a wife and trying to hide from her as well...it's hard enough on my own!

step 1. I need to stop looking at a few sites
step 2. I need others to stop telling me about said deals.
step 3. I need my desktop, laptop and phone to have a few certain site blocked
step 4. I need to be restrained and locked up.

who am I kidding.

The good news is I still actually have a little money left in my December cigar budget. :tu




The not so good news is that would be December 2010. :(

Just finished all my buying for the year. I will revisit buying once again in Jan-Feb.

I hear ya brotha! My only saving grace is that I think I am officially out of room in the humis. So unless I drop the coin for another storage device I may have to start smoking more than I am buying for a change, although one of the guys at work is starting to enjoy cigars and I may give him a bundle of Consuegras(sp?) that I barely touched just to make a little room. I think I smoked 2 or 3 out of the bundle that I bought in the Spring so it looks like I just may never smoke them. So why not gift them to someone who will right?
I am hoping to hear some feedback on the Verocu 9s so I can maybe add them to my list for Mrs Clause though!:D

I'd been good for awhile, but I lobbed in a couple of low bids on the Devil Site last night and low and behold, I won.

Tatuaje Havana VI Nobles bx 24 $109
5pk La Riqueza #4 $27
5pk Cabaiguan Beli Fino $29

Good deals, but I gotta stay away from that damn site.
