Puff.com Newsletter anyone?

Re: Black band project

Damn I'm jealous! I didn't get that email!! But then again I have never used Cbid or hardly buy any cigars online. That would be the best way to get your email.

Re: Black band project

its most likely a viral marketing campaign. And being a fan of viral marketing I think its worth a shot.
