Something I thought of that may (or may not) be a cool idea. I'll throw it out there to anyone that might wanna give it a thought as well....
Maybe instead of a 5 or 10 stick sampler, someone (not implying you or anyone in specific) might "bomb" a 1-year gift membership to the CRA to an unsuspecting BOTL? Just food for thought..

That's an AWESOME idea!
if I was financially able, I would def do that! But, I don't have the money... but I do have plenty cigars... so I'm gonna hurt somebody... lol
on a serious note, somebody with a little more wiggle room in the budget should pick that idea up and run with it, for real! Unfortunately, I'm not even a member yet... but the Jan/Feb cigar budget is dedicated to a membership whenever I can afford it. Being a member is an awesome way to stand up for what we love. As soon as you can make it happen, EVERYBODY should do it!
I really hate to put this idea out there. I've been trying to think up something new for months now. Don't know if it's been tried or not. I call it The Never Ending Story Pass, the idea being I send off 10 Sticks to someone I know will then send it off to someone that they know will pass it on. Then each person post his name when he gets it so it doesn't get passed to him again. Don't know if it will work but it sounded cool to me.
Will there be a put and take in this pass, or all ten in with a new ten out. Will there be a policing group, some may find it neccesary while others may find it offputting. My suggestion would be only put cigars that you don't mind GIVING away, Someone will take an Opus and leave a Gurkha or Rocky. Accept that. Will it accumulate to a point that postage become a burden when it leaves the country or needs to be insured, can it be sent to a person of your own choosing, Figure out what you expect and let those that want to participate, do so.
You've acquired quiet A following in A relatively short time, not A easy task. So keep on being your self and you'll become one of the most read members on the forum in my humble opinion.

I figured on a put and take of 5 and since the idea is that it never stops no putting in more than you take. And no higher end sticks, like Opus, GOF etc. I'm thinking more along the lines of Ruination, 5 Vega AAA along those lines. I think honesty wouldn't be an issue. And yes it would be up to the individual person who he or she wanted to surprise with it. But only sending it to someone you know would keep it going. No list, just posting when you got it .Maybe there could be a list of people who wanted to be involved but the order would be a random selection by the current holder of the pass. And then other people could add their names down the road.
Congrats brother! Looking forward to watching you destroy somebody. I think you should just send out whatever you want to whoever you want as anybody would be lucky and appreciative to receive it. Again congrats man
