...........the classic drunk shopping. I purposely stay off all cigar related sites, even this one if I'm knocking back a few. Oh, and good luck 'splaning that Lucy.

I've never been drunk enough to order Gurkha's






Seriously though, I've made a few devil site purchases after one or three too many drams.

Does anyone know what you do with your man-card once it's had all four corners cut off of it?

Lol....feel your pain brother. When I started on these new meds, I had to have Dani change my password on Cbid and ebay. On a positive note, I was able to send a few hundred cigars off to the troops.

Clicking the "submit order" button is always a lot easier for me after a few fingers of tequila. I should set up my computer so I can't get on vendor sites after 10PM.

ive never been drunk enough to order from thompson or get gurkhas on purpose. hell, half the time that i order packs i stay away from ones with gurkas in em.

i did however at one point want the humi & knife that comes in that bundle, but the interests stop there. i think that there should be a breathalizer on credit cards

You ain't kidding! When I first started smoking cigars, my wife bought me my first humidor and some crappy Thompson Iguanas (it was the thought that counted).

Anyway, I've moved four times over three states in the last five years, and I STILL get the Thompson catalog like clockwork.

I buy stuff when we fight, then she's real pissed when it shows up. I'm also guilty of drunk buying on occasion

LOL, toten chip card.....that brings back some memories. I am not sure if we ever had any corners actually taken off, but I know there were many occasions that they should have. I still have scars from my whittling ventures.
