You can do it! No purchases for me for 2 days, although I think I need to buy more

I'm with you.

I promised myself over the summer to cease cigar purchases,
so I can get a box of Hemingway maduros at Xmas. But, alas,
it hasn't worked... Oliva Vs, PAMs, Graycliffs, San Cristobals,
and other deals "too good to pass up", sunk my self discipline.
Now I might not even be able to get my usual Xmas fare from
Fuente.

Maybe my New Year resolution should be to smoke down what
I already have, in 2010. That would save a bundle of cash.

Stay off of the internet, particularly cigar sites. It helps.

10/3/09 - box of La Herencia Cubana Robusto from CBID for stupid cheap.

Thats it, I'm done, and totally tired of chasing the next great cigar.... for at least a few............. months.

Yeah! Why can't I be satisfied with what I already have???

I have been pretty good the last year although I can't really say it was self control that kept me in check. It has been more the fact that I have been working too much lately to find time to smoke through what I have currently which leaves little to no room in my cabinet. This past month I did make two box purchases(Boris and Cain Habano) which after a little Tetris I managed to make room. I am at full capacity now but the scary thing is I am re-seasoning another humidor that I pulled out of service last year. Figured it's winter time which is when I try to do most of my buying so I may be off the wagon here soon.
