A year ago-ish my brother mentioned that is fiancé's brother Inlaw had moved back to oregon an was in need of a cheering up due to some hard circumstances. My brother asked if I could sell him some sticks as a welcome back/cheer up gift. I said no and put together a pack of a bakers dozen of cigars to give him and this bombed the bejeezus outta him. :)

At my brothers wedding tonight a stranger approached me and said he owed me a big thank you. I was confused until he introduced himself as my victim. :) he spewed out huge thanks and gushed over the selection I had given him. I included a stogie stand that I got from our dear buddy on CCOM and a few other goodies as well. We talked for a hour and I have now made a new smoking buddy. :)

Made my day and figured I would share the story. :)
