1st Posy Apr 1st purchase

[KickU2Sleep]

Made my 1st post Apr 1st cigar purchase at my local b&m...They had a sign in the humi that stated something to the affect....Due to recent legislation cigar prices will increase by a maximum of $1.50/stick 12.50/box...Well as luck would have it, thier computer wasn't registering the price increases so I got all my sticks at thier normal price...On the down side, they still haven't fixed thier humidifier...The temp was a nice 68 but the humidity was only 58rh....I even found more beetled cigars, this time in a box of BigButt robustos....The girl that was working was thankful for the discovery of the beetles and gave me a 40% discount on a couple of Cusano Corojo's robutos and a free cusano box to carry my purchases in....Really hope they solve this problem before too long, it's the only (real) b&m in my city.....

wow somebody needs to slap some sense into that owner!

I always thought the beetles came around if the humidity went over 75%?

Well the temp was 68 when I was in there, late afternoon. there's no telling what the max temp was or even if this jackass owner keeps the a/c on at night...Hell I wouldn't be surprised if he turned the humi(when it works) off at night...I know the beetle holes weren't in the Bigbutt when i was in there last week cause I bought a couple to try and all the ones I looked at looked good. They actually put in a new hydrometer and temp guage(it matched rh with the analog one that was in there)...I have no clue why the infestation(as long as it doesn't get my favorites...I was able to rescue a few today

Are you taking any precautions in case there are beetle eggs on the cigars you purchase? I would definitely freeze those smokes just to be sure.

I would keep them in a seperate container all together even after freezing them!!!
