Another package at my door

My wife thinks I've completely gone mad. And maybe I have. Last Friday, I had the Man O' War 20 sampler + 5 free and Gurkha 20 sampler arrive. And today this. A 5 pack Taboo twist sampler, 6 pack Taboo Special Forces sampler and a 16 pack email deal.
First time ordering from Taboo, but since almost everyone here seems to like them so much, what the hay.
Came nicely pacaged with water pillows and tons of bubble wrap.

So, besides the above, in the past two months I've purchased a
20 ct box of Onyx Reserve #2 Belicoso
25 ct box of Montecristo Edmundo
7 various samplers totalling 52 cigars
2 humidors
2 travel humidors
4 torch lighters
2 cutters
1 ashtray

And that's not counting the box of 25 Dominican Cohiba Churchills my brother-in-law picked up for me, which started the slide down the slope...

Do I have a problem???

Just a small one. It hasn't got too bad yet.

Nope. It’s just part of the slope.

If you ever find the darker side of the slope, image the same amount of cigars but with 3 times the price and 5 times the waiting time.

That's where I more or less started on this slippery slide. That's why I've been trying so many samplers to find something similar at a decent price. Still looking, but the ride is a lotta fun
I know that I'll always want to have some CC's aging in the humi

Actually I think you will find that quality vs cost it is cheaper.
I know I can buy a box of CC as cheap or cheaper than a much inferior box of NC.

Canada's tax is horrid, and if you live in the US like I do... (dot dot dot). I find that purchasing over CBid NC is a hell of a lot cheaper than the CC alternatives, but than again for quality vs cost, I don't care about cost as I only have 1 cigar a day; helps with the quantity
