I wonder how many people will hit the 1 day deal to get such a fabulous deal. 10/45.00 plus shipping, seriously?
Alec Bradley American Classic and Sun Grown
Free $20 CI Gift Card with each 10-Pack

Alec Bradley. This small-batch, boutique brand has garnered the industry's highest ratings as of late. '96,' a couple '94s,' some '93s' and plenty of 90+ scores. Today only, we open a veritable can of you-know-what on Alec Bradley's latest top-sellers, and new dollar-for-dollar kings, American Classic and Sun Grown.  For the next 24-hours, I’m serving up Alec Bradley’s hottest new brand for the very minimum price allowed. But at camp CI, doing the minimum’s like doing nothing at all. So while I can’t break the rules, I can bend the hell out of them.

Here’s where it gets really juicy: with each 10-pack purchased, I’ll toss in a $20 CI Gift Card for nothing. And considering 10-packs start at just $44.55, that’s like paying less than $25. Insanity.

American Classic employs a golden-brown Connecticut wrapper leaf from Honduras overtop a rich, well-aged blend of Nicaraguan long-fillers to deliver a flavorful, but very well-balanced smoke.  A rich core of tobacco is complemented by sweet notes, nuts, and a touch of coffee, while the finish is long, woodsy, and soothing on the palate. Medium bodied.

American Sun Grown is a Nicaraguan puro crafted with a beautiful Nicaraguan sun-grown Habano wrapper. A hearty, rich, and spicy blend, the AB American Sun Grown is complex yet smooth, and dishes out notes of black pepper, cedar, and nuts with a slight sweetness occasionally entering the fray. Medium to full-bodied.

Today, Alec Bradley’s new star becomes a whole lot more appealing thanks to my FREE $20 CI Gift Card deal, leaving you with tasty, premium AB handmades at a price that’s like paying less than $2.50 per cigar. That’s nutty.

Anyone else join Saints & Sinners this weekend?
What's that?
Tatuaje and L'At paid fan forum.  They open registration each year for 1day to the first X amount of members who get in.  Sold out in just under 12 hours this year, 600 members total.  Pay $150, get a welcome package(shirt, pint glasses, lighter, bottle opener, some toher accessories non-cigar related and some cigars), a box of tat prototypes and new cigars for that year(12ish cigars), access to special sales with boxes from Pete's personal stash, discounted accessories, etc. 

http://thesnsclub.com/
just dont seem like a great deal to me. Very DE type marketing if you ask me. Great marketing idea. Makes you feel special. Tat and DE are masters at cigar hype, limited cigars, fat little monster or a flying pig. On the bright side, most of the cigars are good. $150 for 10 cigars and tshirt GFY!
$150-12 cigars(2-4 of which will never see production and 3-6 old releases Rdux'd-in 2013 the Frank and Pork Tenderloin, each going for $40+ alone), Tshirt, Dominoes Set, 2 Pint Glasses, Lighter, Bottle Opener, Membership Coin, another handful of cigars with welcome package, etc.  Nice perk, if you are a Tat guy, many of the members are shop owners, so they cut good pricing, ex: Pudgys for $87.50 shipped for S&S members right now, lot of the members get dress boxes and they sell them to members...but all that takes $$ to take advantage of. 

But I agree, Tat markets with the best of em, not for everyone that's for sure.
TH had the Pudgy for $87 also, if your a tat lover and are into the special releases its a nice deal, especially if you can afford the $150.

yeah, it looks like you get $1000 discount, by paying your rent up front for a year!  find out if smoking is allowed.

apparently smoking is allowed, there's questions about it to match you up with other likely residents.

Kinda wish I had seen Deano's post before posting that.  Sorry if it seemed insensitive.
