Same here. Just got one done last month and it was right around $1,200. $500 is a steal.

Happens to me all the time as a college student with a limited budget. I have to tell you the best part of the year was selling my books back that was at least a hundred bucks to put towards the cigar fever and there is nothing wrong with that. Other then those lucky moments I def had to budget my cigar habit.

My teeth are fine, but it is the wife that is the crown queen and I do the same thing. Cigars, salt water fish, or crowns.

Really can get a guy down!!!

Maybe I'm lucky but I happened upon a dentist that smokes cigars. He's comp'd me several times over the years, including a box of No. 4's when I had my crowns done. I was totally taken aback when I learned he was an avid cigar smoker.

This is funny, cause now that you mention it...I do this as well. For example, our AC unit needed leveling, cleaned and a shot of freon which came to about $191. I wasn't pissed about the AC needing the tune up, but the first thing I thought was "S**t, that could have been a box of sticks and a Palio!". Ugh, the joys of homeownin'!

It wasn't nearly as costly as the crown, but I guess what I'm saying is...Im with ya!

Yep, I do that to but what I do more often is when driving I constantly see cigar signs or think I see cigar signs when it's accually "CARS". Or I see a cigar brand name on a sign out of the coner of my eye only to find out it's EL MONTERREY'S mexican food or something like that. It drives me crazy.

Me too, I paid a $600 bill the other day and actually went to a few websites to look at the humidor cabinets I coulda bought for that money. There was a 2,000 count one that would have been SWEET! Sigh

I thought everyone thought that way??

However, it's blasphemy to think the opposite way, i.e my CI order could have bought me a nice pair of shoes and that shirt I was looking at. Gawd forbid!!

I dorp a box of Astons VSG in my ford every month.

[Fullycanvassed]

Yup, every week at the supermarket:
Me: "Ugh there goes a box of Party shorts... or Padrons... or Siglo II's... or..."

Friends/family: "What in the hell are you talking about?"

Sure does happen to me! Actually today when deciding wether dinning out with me gal, or buying some sticks...
