Cigar Purchasing planning

[Grego]

Do you guys plan out your purchases?

I have to admit I have enjoyed cigars for several years now nut now it is kinda going to a differnt level and I am having/wanting to plan purchases more.
Items on my to be purchased list in the near future..

On the list for a box of the T110's
on the list for Blacks at local B&M
Pinar Del Rio Robustos, want a box
Illussione Epernay
Sabor Cubana
El Titan De Bronze

I need a box of short stories to replenish
I have located a few boxes of Triunfadors I wouldnt mind adding one to the collection but I already have one so this may not happen

I have to admit although it is the time of the year for the Opus rush but they have not even intereseted me this year, I have a few but...

So do you plan your buys or is it pretty spontaneous?

I follow the "Plan to not purchase" steps. They are easy.

1) Plan to not buy any cigars
2) Buy cigars
3) WTF did I just do
4) Start over

Yup, this pretty much sum's it up, lol. I mean, some thing are planned out, but most of the time I see a good deal and can't pass on it even though I know I have a ton of cigars to smoke.

Plan, .......Plan, ......did you say Plan?

I follow a very detailed and regimented purchasing plan, sorry in advance for the long post, but it goes like this:

A) If I need cigars, I buy cigars
B) If I don't need cigars, I don't buy cigars.

The key to success of my program is I look in my humidor at least 10 minutes before I make up my mind if option A or B is currently the correct action for my well laid out plan.

I have an "extras" budget where cigars fit. If one month I spend a tad more (which would be taken from the "to save/invest" section) I makeup for it the following month. Easy-peacy-japanesey.

How about:
1)Buy cigars
2)Proclaim that these are the last cigars you will buy until date mm/dd/yyyy.
3)Buy more cigars before mm/dd/yyyy
4)Realize what I did
5)Become saddened by my addiction to HTF/rare cigars
6)Console myself by smoking a HTF/rare cigar

Dude, I thought you were Mexican?! :smokingme

So what should he use?

Maybe..... Easy-Pezy-Mexicanezy

As far a planing the cigar purchases, I see something I want and I buy it. I guess you could say that is planing ahead, just not very far.

6)Console myself by smoking a HTF/rare cigar
