Spent some money today...

The wife and I dropped by a B&M I've been wanting to visit today. Tobacco Republic in Loomis, CA (Tobacco Republic, Inc. - Fine Cigars and Accessories - Loomis, Ca.). It boasts the largest walk-in humidor in Northern California. It was a pleasant change from most B&M's I'm used to. There were 10 or so people smoking inside, and we made our way to the humidor. The gentleman working there (I assume the owner) greeted us and was very helpful. He definitely knew his cigars. I asked if he had any Fuente Short Stories and he said no, but asked if I'd tried the Work of Art. I grabbed a WOAM, along with a Decade Lancero (last in the box. I asked for the box, but he needed it for inventory so he gave me an empty Decade robusto box instead). He also talked me in to a Pinar Del Rio Clasico Exclusivo lancero. I've never tried this brand, but he talked in depth about their roller and said if I like lanceros, I need to try them.

The big money item, though, was what we found next. We went to Frye's Electronics and they had Haier wine coolers on sale. I found an open-box, 40 bottle cooler for a touch over $200.

All in all, I had a good day and felt like sharing. I'll be posting pictures of the cooler once I get it up and running.

Couple quick pictures with some empty boxes showing placement. I'll be replacing the metal racks with spanish cedar.

Good score there Adam!

I'm pondering on whether or not to get on of these myself.
