    DB3629E3-E359-4D73-9982-3CADA4C9A076.jpeg

    Apparently I ordered a 10 pack of Oliva Serie “O” Robusto, I don’t recall buying them but at 2:00am with the lack of sleep anything is possible.
    They are supposed to be here tomorrow.

    let’s see…
    1- 5 pack CAO sampler
    1- 6 pack genesis sampler
    1- 10 pack brown bag sample
    1- 5 pack RP 1990
    1- 10 pack Ava Maria Immaculato

    so I haven’t had a cigar in 9+ years and I just purchased 36 plus some “ merchandise “. At least I only have one more bid out there. Couldn’t resist a deal :whistle::doh::thumbs:

    I bid on some Rocky Patels 1990’s but I don’t think I got them, I also got some RO’s in a sampler but I don’t recall the specifics on them.

    Its only been a bit over a month since I saw this thread, started my hoarding & these influence peddlers started telling me where to order from… Lol.

    Let me know when you get to around 500 cigars & we will compare notes. :hair::headbang::picard:

    It’s worse than buying chainsaws.

    Having a CAO Bella Vanilla this evening. They just arrived today. Very smooth, not a big smoke output, very subtle flavor at least to my palette. Seem to burn very slow but well.

    I was having a bit of debate about which one to have : The CAO Vanilla, Legends Black by Drew Estate or the Isla del Sol Gran.

    Nah. She laughed. She just thinks, we’ll knows, I’m an idiot. That’s ok with me though. :p
    Easier to be happy that way. Smart people got too much to worry about :jaw::loco: :crazy::wacky:

    I had my 48qt cooler addressed to the house, damm FedEx guy dropped it off at my wife’s work. According to tracking it said the driver met the customer ??? I was getting ready to call them & complain when she called & said I had a cooler show up out there & so she proceeded to inquire about what I am going use it for & then ask how many cigars I have? :whistle::emb:

    I guess I am on the hook for a new refrigerator now …

    I sure am glad the UPS guy nows better than to drop my stuff out there.

    :rofl: :lol::rofl: :lol:... I guess mine just comes to expect it when I get a box.... but time will do that.... :doh:...

    Speaking of that... I got a box yesterday... with 6 less 5 pack in it... Box bottom was taped up. Only the second time that this has happened. Sent a inquiry about it to CI lastnight. This makes about 5 boxes that hasn't been handled nice by whomever. I got lucky on one box. I cut the tape on the top and all the contents dropped on the floor...:hair:

    I had the tree puller on, the more I tried the farther to the right I went. The right side was down about 2’ & was really soft. Best to stop while I was just a little behind instead of a lot behind. It would of rolled if it went any more to the right.
    It was another 6’-7’ to the bottom of the ditch, soft & steep.

    I shut down for the day just in time. I grabbed my phone & I saw an email, I forgot I had bid on some Ave Maria’s.

    I snagged some Ave Maria Crusaders for $10 a 5 pack. That chap on Cigar Obsession really seemed to think they were good.

    I also have a bid in on some Immaculata’s.

    What the hell, I need to fill that new cooler with cigars don’t I ? I can’t have a 1/4 - 1/3 full cooler.
