Cigars at Costco?

Yeah, I doubted they would beat the prices of cbid or even normal CI/FS/Whatever for mass market stuff, still want to check it out though. If they are in a humidor and the price is right...

I have never seen them at my Costco, but I will look closer the next time I am there.

They sell them at the Costcos near me, but they are not kept in the right rh/temps. I wouldn't recommend buying them.

Even a dry(er) cigar beats no cigar when you have a jonesing...

Trust me, I've smoked cigars from all sorts of places when I'm out and in a bind, even Cohibos that I knew were fakes, just because they were tobacco.

Of course, not all of you have a 5-8 a day habit either

I don't think any of the NorCal Costcos sell handrolled cigars. Just machine made stuff like Optimo, Middletons, etc..

At least I've never seen it at any of the ones that I've been too.

I suspect that it's a regional and possibly a state based thing.

I would be suprised to see them out here in Cali. My father in law is a delivery freight driver for them. I will ask him tomorrow if he has seen any in the greater bay area.

The Sam's club around me used to have real, name brand (Monte, RyJ's, etc) cigars kept in a humidor, but I haven't seen any there for a couple of years. If I remember correctly too, the prices on them wasn't anything spectacular.

Costco in Charleston, SC - limited selection in the wire cage where cigarettes are kept.

Costco in Myrtle Beach, SC - larger selection in a standup humi by the front door. Mainly Punch, RyJ, Montes.
