Happy Black Friday to everyone....!  Well my auction cigars finally made it.  Total price with shipping $53.00.
5 Pack of CLE Conn Corona
1 La Gloria Gilded Age (I just wanted to try it since I'm a sucker for new sales pitches.)
1 262 Ideology Box Pressed (no idea what the hell this is, I must have been drunk that night.)
2 Acid Subculture Mantra (I see allot of people bidding on this one, so I didn't want to be left out.)
1 Four Kicks Sublime (I see allot of you guys smoking this one)
1 La Campina Robusto (Cheap.  I've had one before and thought it was ok.)
2 Acid Toast (Again, allot of people bid on this one so I wanted to give it a try.)
3 Inferno Toro (I know I'm weird, but so far I like the Inferno.)
2 Aging Room M356 Rondo (Again, I just wanted to try one of the Aging Rooms, probably not one of the best thou.)

In order to get the glare off of the cigars I had to photograph them in low light.  They are really not green.

Once again the fools don't fail to amaze me with their bullshit Black Friday chaos shopping mobs.  Nothing new about Black Friday has been recognized for many years but this insanity now days is sickening.
  I was out of the house early this morning to go to Lowes at 6:30am. they had LED light bulbs for $0.99, ad potted poinsettias for $0.99.  Also picked up some GE 300 count LED christmas lights for $30 off a set for $19.99.  Here is the beauty of this strategy.  Everyone else is at Best Buy or Walmart, fighting their way around the store. Me, I am one of 6 or 7 shoppers with 12 people to wait on me.  no lines, no hassles was on my way home with everything I wanted, plus another 5% off since i used the Lowes card, at 7:05am.  door to door 39 minutes.

Morning men.  Anyone else find it strange that the Small Batch email promotions contain no links to the actual deals and web page?  Or maybe it's just me.
Morning Bean, hope you had a nice Thanksgiving.

I don't get the small Bach emails.
You're not missing much today.  Their weekend deal is spend a lot of $$ and get various boutique samplers thrown in for free.
Good morning Bean
Morning NFM.  You're at work as well?
Yes sir, pizza just got delivered so I'm trying to get my money's worth into my stomach.  How was your Thanksgiving?
Very good.  We didn't give away our leftovers.

Not my favorite vendor but they do have some different stuff.

Today Only Code blackfriday
Tried looking through their site a bit ago, but they had so many things popping up over and over again that I eventually just gave up.
And a lot of things they are 30% too high on to start with.
Agreed, another reason I eventually gave up.
But as was said before, not a bad resource for some real boutique items that you often can't find on line or in stores.  They also have one of the better cigar of the month clubs, with cigars you really haven't tried and that aren't in house "B" sticks.  Only better club is the one Mr. Mayor tapped into....can't remember the name off hand.
And by the way, I have no idea what you're referring to here.
When we were at the lounge the other week, you said you had gotten some really good samplers  for twenty some bucks that contained Sobremesa and some other new top end sticks.
Ahhh.  But they're mystery sticks each month.  $20 includes 4 sticks and free shipping:

http://www.2guyscigars.com/Cigar-Authority-Care-Package-411111/
There's another site I get almost daily e-mails from, but don't seem to find a lot of actual deals.
I happen to listen to their podcast, even though they're the competition... Once I actually start recording mine.  ;)  Anyhoo, this care package is really good if you want to smoke along while listening.  I recently got a special edition La Gloria Cubana that was over 12 years old.  Also got my Gueguanse from there.  Only been doing it for a couple of months but have gotten some interesting sticks.

I enjoy the four kicks myself, but I detest the Acid toast.  Just cause a lot of people bid on something don't make it good.  See Wikipedia on Lemmings.   8)

$80/box SL Oval coronas on the Page
I wonder if there is a Black Friday Sale on Tupperware, could not resist those Ovals.
here you go, hefty tote halfway down page 13.

Hell, just go with the wine fridge right underneath it. Looks much cooler.

Good thinking.  I bet no one is at the grocery stores either.

Though, the Tupperware has a latching lid. Tough call.
