So, I think I’m an addict…

[bigman]

Arrrrgggg!!!!!!!!

So, you guys have done it to me again, or at least that’s my story if I’m asked why I keep buying all these cigars. I just purchased the CI Gurkha Ancient Warrior Vintage 10 pack, and since I couldn’t stand to see them ship me a box with just 10 lonely sticks, I decided to add 15 friends to the box and picked up a 15 pack of the Fire Double Coronas Corojos, just because they look good and I have been thinking about trying them for a wile now, not to mention they shouldn’t break the bank.

I’m glad I came to my senses and didn’t…oh wait the Edge X outs were on backorder, and the Edge Maduro five packs were on backorder, and I didn’t think about the Partagas Spanish Rosado in a five pack till just now(dang it).

Must there always be a package in route????

[Blaylock]

Sure, blame it in us.

And yes, there must always be a package en route...it's the law!

Love the Gurkhas by the way.

[Poriggity]

Seems as though Ive always got a package showing up at my work.. whether its a bomb, or something I buy. Gotta love it. Hell, Ive even thought about giving up my first love (4 wheeling/rock crawling in my jeep) to focus on cigars... But I don't think I could bear to part with my Heep.

If it helps you sleep at night, yes we did it all.

The next step is to get rid of the temptation. Burn em or bomb them out.

[bigman]

It can’t be my fault. I mean till I found CS I only bought the one box of Iguanas, and five singles. I didn’t even have o cooler or anything.

Luckily I did already have an understanding, and tolerant girlfriend.

I’m burning them as fast as I can. And I’ll be sending packages out as soon as I get some trades under my belt. Rest assured that I will be sharing with my fellow BOTLs and SOTLs soon. My cooler is small and filling fast, I’ll be upgrading it soon and by then I should be ready to give till it hurts…someone.

Welcome to the dark side of "the hobby". There is a group for us....its called Club Stogie.

Welcome to the slippy slope...

consider yourself lucky. when i saw the gurkha special i had to get it, along with the 2 boxes and multiple 5-packs i already had in my cart

[bigman]

Ya, I have to budget myself, I do have the new truck payment, and I need new tires before winter, so I’m trying to save up the needed $800 for truck rubber, along with support this habit. Too many hobbies not enough pay checks. Plus, I need to get the girlfriend a big present, or lots of medium sized ones for being so understanding with all of my hobbies. Oh, and I have to get a new laptop for home so I don’t have to do all my slacking at work.
But I am planning on stopping by my local B&M tomorrow so there goes another $45 or so.

I feel your pain. I had to go cold turkey on the devil site. So what do I do the next week?... Go by two local B&Ms. Ouch. Trying to save up for a vacaton next month. Then I'm looking up if there are any B&Ms where we are going...
(Sigh)

Knowing and admittiong that you have a problem is the first step and only the first step. You are far from reaching rock bottom if you are still only buying 5 packs. Next will come the box purchase and then there will be the trip to the real dark side of the moon when you start to buy boxes of contraband cigars and even then it will only be the tip of the iceburg for you. For more help with this problem I suggest youu consult specialist.
