Another three deal day at JR Cigar's DDA. Sheesh. Not that I'm looking to buy anything but still... always kinda looking to buy something.
What's the deal?
What's the deal with no deals? Who knows. Grapefruit Sculpin available for growler fills at Ballast Point, want to try that. I need to start leaving empty growlers in the car.
Lack of temptation is good for me right now. I've bought more cigars in 2014 than in the previous 48 years of my life combined.
Ah, who'm I kidding? Probably going to order more Cubans today. Didn't get to it yesterday.
What are you going to buy Bret ? .
Either the RyJ Short Churchills or the MC Petite #2s. I'm resisting the urge to load up on all the Partagas I can get - I like Partagas, but I tell myself I really should explore some others.
Both good choices...smoke any Bolivars or Ramon Allones?
I have - the petit corona size in both, and one of the Bolivar Bellicosos Finos. A box of ten of the Allones Superiores is tempting, but I'm suspicious that it won't be $2 per stick better than the Partagas.
This is all tortuous logic, because I haven't had the RyJ or MC Petite #2 either. What odd logic we use when spending money.
The Partagas Shorts are ALWAYS "in stock" at my house, love those.
Tortuous logic indeed, especially when we get hung up on "just" $2. Adds up quick when you're talking per stick, over a full box of cigars, but for any one cigar it's a trivial amount of money. Like when we say something is good at $3 but not $3.50. Really? That 50¢ makes that much of a difference?
Just buy 'em all and go on a hiatus until the next great deal surfaces.
