Favorite B&M?

08-28-2009, 06:32 PM

I will concur that Empire is a great B&M with respect to events, atmosphere and selection. For box purchases (that I don't buy online), I shop at Smoker's Palace in Wilson, NC. Many times, I can buy a box there (and pay the taxes) cheaper than buying online. They have a great selection (although not the same as Empire) and friendly staff.

Forgot about Smoker's Palace. Great prices, Great prices, Great prices. Not really a sit down and smoke place but they have Great Prices. Did I mention the prices? They have Great Prices.

I'll have to echo James and Bryan on Smoker's Palace. They have great prices. Lots of VSG's, 64's and 26's. Also had a chest of Liberty. I just picked up a couple of Tats for the same price one would have cost me at any other B&M around here.

Just wish I had more calls to Wilson...... Or not.

JR in Selma is a pretty good place too, depending on who is working
