JR CIGAR WEEKLY SPECIAL - Halloween Trick or Treat
Posted by Uncle Moneybag$ on 20 Oct 2006 at 12:29 am | Tagged as: Weekly Specials
For just $39.95 you get to “spin the wheel” with JR at the helm and see what you get. They guaranteed 20 cigars last year, and they did not disappoint. At least 4 TTT trinidads, one Davidoff, one Montecristo Platnium, one Macanudo, a few Romeo y Julietas, a white owl or two and some other mediocre sticks. But for just under $40.00, you can’t go wrong with this deal–assuming history repeats itself. I suppose I should also mention it comes with JR’s assortment of unsold chotsky items: cheap cutters, jackets that are extra small, hats that don’t fit and t-shirts you won’t even use to wash your car. Maybe this year they’ll throw in a crappy ashtray or two.
But I’m a big believer in this deal. I’ve been looking forward to this for a while. I ordered two last year, and I did so again this year. Brother Dicksbain ordered just one again. Perhaps he’s waiting for the xmas deals?
Rate [9.0]
PPG: ??? (around 2 bucks a stick, from white owl to Davidoff)
Brothers purchased? YES!
REVIEWS:


JR’s has gone down hill. The 2006 Halloween Special was a major let down. Out of the 20 cigars, 5-6 were okay, the rest were dogrockets.
I typically spend $250 a month @ JR’s, but will take my biz to Famous Smoke
Worst Halloween Special Ever - $5 bag of CRAP. I had ONE major brand cigar. The rest were just awful crap sticks. Most were 9″ El Giante disaster no-name cigar.
