i usually buy cigars at 6.00 and up, and i smoke 2 -3 per day on average. recently been trying to get internet deals to lower my expense. what is everyone else spending?
 
i try to keep it under $8 in general, i have a few cigars i really enjoy in the lower price ranges such as padron 2000 (~$3.50)
 
Anywhere from ~$3.00 - ~$7.00. I don't feel the need to pay over $8 or so for a cigar, when so many greats are much less expensive. But, Hey! we all have our own tastes.
 
The most I can settle with, and the most I have paid in a long time is about $350 a box.

I bought a box of the Cien Anos after a five pack. I love them to death, although they are going through a case study of aging right now. I think I'll have to buy another box soon to smoke when they hit there peak...
 
I have found many smokes I like for under $3. I have a limited amount of money to spend on cigars, but I am still able to enjoy an occasional higher priced cigar. I rarely have single cigars that cost more than $10.
 
I generally don't spend much more than $8 or $10 for a single smoke although I stay true to my female roots :wink: and have been known to make impulse buys of $15- $30 a cigar before. Dang it was worth it though! I have yet to buy a whole box yet. I don't think I could handle that kind of commitment :)
 
i try to keep my cigars in the 4 dollar range. ill try some more expensive ones but for me to buy a box of 10 dollar sticks i have to like it A LOT. soon as those primeros come back into stock im gonna buy a bundle i think. 1 dollar a stick for those things, wow.
 
My weekday smokes are in the $8 range, and my weekend smokes are in the $15 range. I normally only smokes about 6 cigars a week though. I'll occassionally splurge on more expensive cigars, like the Lanceros I ordered this week.

Cobsgirl26. Welcome. I enjoy a womans opinion . My friend said it best " Women cigar smokers are awsome".
Look forward to more comments.

I'm all over the place. I typically don't go any lower than $3 per smoke (mail order by the box). But I've been known to splurge on a single at up to $25 or $30 at a local shop (on average probably once every other month). I usually sit around the narrower $8 or $10 per smoke, though.
 
I got my credit card report from last year, added up all the cigar shops & on line places, DRUM ROLL PLEASE











$6251.57


No wonder my wife was pissed !!!!!!! Enjoy, Vince
 
is their anything you would of rather had for your 6200.00? or was it worth it? are you sure that was all cigars for your personal pleasure? some of that could of been bussiness expenses[if you was forced to smoke it at the shop] some could of been travel expenses[driving to pitt. ALWAYS requires a cigar] and their are gifts, if you give a buddy a cigar, that dont count, and he should give you one back. and if all else fails, spend 9000.00 on cigars this year, she will not be pissed when you only spend 6200.00 the following years.
 
well if you really want to break the bank, you can always get that 20CT box of cigars from Gurkha. 20 cigars all aged 20 years in a glass tube. Each box is infused with an entire bottle of Luis the XIII
How much do you ask? This cigar was the most expensive standard production factory box of cigars ever made and are still for sale for the low low price of $10,000.00
 
maybe if I spend 12K this year she will say that the 6200 wasnt that bad, good idea hahahah enjoy, Vince
 
This cigar is only $8.33 per unit.
Sounds reasonalble until one considers that $10,000 per 20 cigars is $500.00 each, and if the cigar lasts one hour, therefore $500 per 60 minutes is $8.33 per minute.
I've been living too close to our Nations Capital- Wash, DC. That's how they rape us out of our hard earned dollars.
Maybe the vitamins are kicking in.

I actually managed to snag a few of the Gurkhas youre talking about online about a year ago. After opening one tube, you practically get drunk just from the smell! It is an outrageous cigar! Incredibly classy!
 
1 off those would have to last me a month, or i would need a better accountant to write that off.
