Bundles, Seconds and Over-Runs

[Kreth]

Famous Nic 3000s are back in stock. I've been wanting to try these for a while, so I snagged a bundle.

Very tempting, as a noob my humidor is quite empty, this might help fill it up.

Gary, when I first got my humidor the way I filled it up was with samplers and 5 packs.

Along with buying singles, I was able to get a nice variety of cigars without spending too much and was slowly able to figure out which ones I liked before I started "investing" in boxes.

Bundles, Seconds and over-runs are nice if you've tried the cigars they were originally supposed to be and liked them but if you haven't, you could end up with a bundle of sticks you don't care for and can't get rid of.

Just something to think about on your way down that slope.

Btw, buying "mega-samplers" from CI is an incredibly cheap way of trying out a variety of smokes without breaking the bank but still filling up the humidor. Before investing in a single box, it gives you around 20 gars with 4-5 different blends in each sampler for the price of about $2.50-4 a stick(with many of them retailing for more than double or triple that, and just some great go-to sticks in general). Even though I have been smoking for about two years now, I have yet to make a single box purchase(but that is happening as soon as I return to the states ). I have solely purchased mega-samplers, 5'ers and singles but I don't regret it. It has provided me with experiencing dozens of different blends without emptying my wallet and now I have enough knowledge as to what blend I love and will buy by the box.

Good Bundle Smokes - but that said they need a nice long rest before they reach that point. Experience finds that 6 months to a year is good for them.
