Jambalaya Be Fast, Rubix^3 Be Slow

[Rubix^3]

I know Jambalya vets are gonna chuckle, but this is a warning to all newbs based on my experience today:
Make Haste!!!
When you move C.I. Joe's "Jambalaya" deal to your cart, you have to totally check out and have a confirmation # in hand in order to actually secure the deal. I thought I moved quick; the meter was half full, I added the deal to my cart and entered in my credit card info. When the final confirmation screen came up it said "out of stock".
I called to find out the problem, and the sales associate said I was too slow, the deal sold out. I don't like to allow companies to keep my credit card #s on file, so I guess just faster typing next time.

Hopefully others will learn along with me.
Oh well, Joe ain't over yet!

That has happened to me before as well. Sucks

C.I. now has P*YP*L as a checkout option, that works faster for me since the evil site actually stores my cc info. I always click "save CC info" on C.I. but it never does

Rubix, what were you trying to get? I pulled the trigger on the RP Decade torpedos. MMMmmm, I enjoy that cigar and love that price!

They have some different merchandise that seems to be coming up today! I like it! 3 finger CAO ashtray for $15 and a Herf-A-Dor X15 for $20.00. I had to jump on the ashtray.

The one that got away was 601 Blue Robusto 39.99

I use p***** on CI whenever I order, it goes a lot faster. One question though. Can ****** track my purchases and inform the proper authorities to tax me based on a purchase from a cigar website? Or am I just over-thinking a little?

How often does this jambalaya thing happen? Is it a regular event or just random?

It happens one day each week but on different days running from 12am to 12am. There might be some sort of algorithm to figure out when they will happen, but my helper monkeys have yet to determine it.

Not the same thing, but this reminded me. With C.I.'s "5 pack madness," you can get 5 Don Pepin Garcia Blue Generosos for $20, and they throw in a supposedly $30 Gurkha stick.

Those Blue Generosos are REALLY nice, and come up on the Jam infrequently. When they do, it's usually $39.99 for a 10 pack, so this deal is the same price but with 2 free bonus sticks.

Use the free ship link, and you have $138 MSRP gars for $40 shipped

One of the five weekly "exclusive" offers this week is 10 DP Blue Generosos for $39.99, but the Gurkha + 5-pack offer is a better deal for 1 cent more (with the free shipping link) ...
