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.

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.

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.

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

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.

Default Re: How much do you pay for an "everyday" cigar?

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.

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.

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!!

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.
