So last night I went to a local B&M with some friends to enjoy a cigar and a few drinks. This B&M has a cigar bar in the back half. After some drinks, I decided it would be a good idea to pick up some HTF sticks I really didn't need to get. Downside: I blew through about $100 of my college student budget on HTF sticks. Upside: Now I get to enjoy a padron 1926 80th, God of Fire, Padron "Hammer", and opus x at some point. I can't wait to give these a try but I think I might have to leave my credit card at home next time I go there for a night of drinking and cigars. Anyone else have this affliction? :)

Dude, I have that problem, and no alcohol is involved. I just sit in the comfort of my own home with a laptop.

We have all done it and will more than likely do it again!

(What did you end up getting your buddy to smoke?)

Just the other day i had some free time to kill so I went on NHC. Low and behold there is a live chat going on with Pete Johnson and the whole gang. Well that little visit cost me $536.00. So yeah we all fell your pain. On the upside I got 3 fine boxes of cigars and an ass load of swag to boot. the more I shop the more I feel it is a obsession and not a hobby.:applause:

I tried to convince him to try a few of the ones you all recomended but he just went with a DR montecristo white. Not what I would have wanted him to try but he had tried the DR ones before and felt safe with that choice.

Right! I have my impulse under control. By the way, what time is the meeting this week, and will you bring your lap top so we can keep posting during the meeting? Thanks in advance. :hammersma

I actually have a harder time keeping myself from buying cigars than smoking them.

WTF is wrong with me? I need help... someone send me their credit card.

At least you picked up some good sticks. When I drink the cheaper sticks tend to look better. Nothing like getting a shipment of 2 boxes of cheap sticks when you could have picked up one good box. :stickbeat

I am currently trying ro figure out how to store boxes without the roaming eyes seeing things. Just a matter of time before the hammer comes down on me. Fun while it lasted though! If I can just get by till the drawers get here.
