FDA ISSUES FIRST SET OF WARNING LETTERS TO RETAILERS SELLING NEWLY REGULATED PRODUCTS

http://halfwheel.com/fda-issues-first-set-of-warning-letters-to-retailers-selling-newly-regulated-products/130167


Note:  It is truly a government BS story all the way.

Hey, that ain't my story...

And I would venture to guess that any minor buying "flavored" cigars isn't buying them for their fillers. They only like the wrapper.  ;)
"FDA has been conducting compliance checks since the 2009 Family Smoking Prevention and Tobacco Control Act went into effect. The agency, on its own or through contracts, conducts inspections in 56 states and territories. "

56 States?  When did that happen?  Boy the FDA has been busy.
Didn't O'Gunner say we had 52 or something like that.  But perhaps others are like TX and GA where Austin and Atlanta are one state while TX and GA are others.

57...

bank straightened out. be about 7-14 days before my new card arrives, and I need to sign a letter to dispute the charges.

LHC Core toro and ginger ale here.
What kind of card is this?  If I have an issue I just call and they take care of it, no forms, no signatures...
local bank debit card. two warnings came up as $1 each, then they tried a $99.78 and $95 charges. bank said that they try a dollar and if that goes through they hit for all they can get.
Yep, that is the standard procedure.

'Morning, Deano. What happened... someone buy up a bunch of EPC 2nds and put them on your card?
If that were the case, the bank would've told him to go to hell when he tried to dispute them.  ;D

Haven't had an LHC Core in a while. Not a bad cigar. Enjoy.
That is a cigar I enjoy and don't own a single one of for some reason.  They were on the jam early this morning and I thought about buying some.  10/$37.50 which is the same price I paid for every one I have bought I think.

Former Banterer Fitzy put me on to those, he was a nice guy and just disappeared.  PM'd him and never heard back either.
I think I got these as a 5ver for $30 at CI a few months back in some deal.

Did you guys see the Fall Fire Sale email from the sis? Some good deals in there

I see the box of Flash Bangs at what seems to be a decent price... you had one yet?
I really just looked at them, have not tried one but want to. Just not sure they're a better choice than the Napalms for the same price

They can be had fairly cheaply on the devil, various sizes

We even have "in" coolers today....son asked for a Yeti cooler....over $500!

Igloo has similar thermal insulation qualities for about half the price...(and with a discount and free ship!)  And it comes with interior LED lighting!

But Igloos are Not Cool!  Yetis are made in Austin, thus Very Cool.
