Right now, just living on a college student minimum wage job! I have started slowly purchasing singles just to try and find what I like most.
I am just wanting to try a selection of stuff. Any suggestions from yall for a college budget? hahah

SPRINT SALE
Our cigar chain here in Dull-Aware has a four buck bargain bin. That's where the last several sticks from a discontinued box go to free up shelf space for a new box. They may have cost seven or nine by the single when they were on the shelf; but they are just four bucks from the bin. Dig through the bin you can find some super cigars. For example, I scored some tasty rothschilds from that bin when I first started. They were my first intro to the nutmeg aroma I favor now.
Then there's the twenty buck baggies. These will hold a sampler of half a dozen sticks each. I scored any number of these just to try things out when I started.
Then there's the knock down shelf. Here live boxes with a couple years age on them. Might be absolutely top notch cigars; but for some mysterious reason they just didn't go over. For example, I scored a box of 24 Nestor Reserve 2000 there for under sixty bucks. Enjoyed the living crap out of that bargain.
Last, do not scorn the bundle section. You have bundles of twenty over-runs, or twenty seconds, for thirty bucks or under. Rely on your. Some of the very best bargain bundles you can get come from cigar.com. Not just the house blends. Call up cigar.com, tell them what you've tried so far that you like, let them know you are on a short budget, and they will take care of you. Everyone here seems to love the Perdomo seconds and the Fonseca Aranas... just 35 bucks for twenty.
If you live anywhere close to Dull-Aware, and your local store doesn't offer these bargains, it's worth the trip to get here. Once you know what you like, watch the daily deals, sprint sale, and clearance offerings here.

IMO anything in those brands will be good and well constructed so you can just pick something within your price range. The Padron in the standard line (plain brown band) is solid but the maduros seem to get the most love. The Fuente 858 is a good and comes in natural cameroon or maduro. Perdomo Lot23 is good line and the maduros are especially tasty. Oliva Serie G are another good choice.
Just didnt want to buy anything and find out later the shipping was just as much as the product
