How much do you pay for an "everyday" cigar?

icantbejon · 10-26-2008, 09:41 AM

I can dabble down into the $2 range but I think generally I go in the 4-7 area.

Same here, I try to stay under $6.00, especially for "everyday" smokes, but my range varies significantly and I love cigars on sale!

I try to target $125 - $150 for a box of 25, so that would be $5-$6....

My everyday cigars cost 78 cents, so I guess I'm a cheap crotchety geezer.

Interesting. May I inquire as to which cigar that is please? I'm a cheap bastard with an inquiring mind.

I like that way of thinking.
What's that 78 cent cigar ??

My typical everyday cigar falls into a $4-$8 range, so for poll purposes I'll go with $4-$7.

Mugen910 · 10-26-2008, 11:57 AM

I guess it depends on the fx rate.

Scottw · 10-26-2008, 05:21 PM

I look for relatve values like Oliva brand. High rating,nice pricetag. I guess I'm around $4-7

gettysburgfreak · 10-26-2008, 09:38 PM

Since I average about 2-4 cigars per month, I try and buy only higher end stuff allowing me to let them sit.

I fall in this exact category.
Although when I'm at work I smoke a lot of $2.00 stogies such as A. Fuente Curly Head Deluxe Maduro's etc. This is because I'm a FF/Paramedic and can be called out at any moment. I don't mind tossing a $2.00 stogie but a $4-$8 kind of bugs me. At home I'm in the $4-$8 as far as everyday cigar.

Lately, I've been on the high end of the range of this pool, my motto is "Life is too short to smoke cheap cigars."

I do smoke all ranges of cigars but my regulars are on the high end. I don't smoke cigars anywhere near as much as I used to, there are days that I don't smoke one at all.

Don Fernando · 10-27-2008, 12:33 PM

I don't have an everyday cigar, I like to smoke different smokes.

10-27-2008, 12:50 PM

Around $6

BlackDog · 10-27-2008, 12:56 PM

I'd say that when I buy I try to keep my average about $4. Some higher priced sticks, some lower.

OK.. I gotta ask... what kind of cigar does a crotchety old geezer smoke for 78 cents???

ucla695 · 10-26-2008, 08:20 PM

I only smoke on the weekends, so I don't really have an everyday cigar. If I smoked more during the week, I'd like to keep it between $4 to $7.
