Next, someone will recommend you do a search.

Seriously, when it comes to budget smokes, there are two I've found that I actually enjoy. Holt's offers the Little Havana Overrun Small Batch from time to time. Famous has it's Famous 3000 brand. Both are inexpensive, and IMHO, decent smokes. In terms of flavor they are full bodied, but won't try to blow the top of your head off like at least half the stuff being marketed today.

I am already picking up some famous nic 3ks for the wife, she thinks they taste like bread,

I wish I could articulate better what I am looking for. Medium may not be the word, something not Maduro and not Connecticut, I have so many Maduros I need a break now and again. The arganese are mainly for when I want something light and creamy. I really enjoyed an illusione epernay I had, bit light in the flavor department but it had the flavors I like, just a bit weak. Let me know if I'm making any sense.

I like alot of Alec Bradley stuff and they can be found pretty cheap. Maxx is a good one.

Pm me your addy and I'll send you the Maxx box pressed I have left. Maybe you'd like them but they never did anything for me.

This paycheck I'm going to get some budget smokes to lessen the pain in my wallet each time I light up. For Maduro I'm going with Nica Libre, for an early in the day smoke I'm going to pick up some Arganese Connecticut. I want one more bundle of cheapos but I have looked through the cheap smokes thread and nothing really jumps out at me. Looking for something decidedly medium, any recommendations?
