I'm still pretty new to the cigar world and I'm looking for an everyday smoke and was hoping to get some suggestions. I have tried many different cigars from mild to full, infused, flavored, etc.... and haven't found any I don't like. I guess what I'm looking for first would be price. I really don't want to drop $5-10 per smoke for an everyday thing. The wife would probably castrate me for that (and rightfully so!). Next, I guess I would probably prefer a mild to medium body smoke.

Not sure if I've covered everything needed to help me out or not.... Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks everyone!!

Opus X are good everyday smokes. When I run out of those I switch to Anejos.

would you recommend Opus X over his Majesty's reserves as an everyday smoke?

As far as size, 4-6 and up to 60 I guess.

For a newbie, I would suggest the 5 Vegas Gold in Nugget, Robusto, or Torpedo size. Do not get the Maduro.

Agreed about the RP Connecticuts. Good cigar and for the price it's a good daily stick.

Yep, Diesel UC is one of my everyday smokes. You'll overpay at auction, but watch Free Fall. Usually 10 for $25 or boxes of 30 for $75.

OK, I'll confess. My everyday smoke is a PAM 64, but I'm down to under 40 of them. Looks like I'll have to find another everyday smoke.

3) Uzi
4) CAO - Variety to taste (Brazilia, OSA, Soprano mostly)
5) Undercrown

Anything else is a "treat"...don't have the stockpile to make them an everyday yard gar...alas, maybe someday.

I agree with Chuck, mainly because he would roundhouse kick me back to the future! Unholy Cocktail FTW!!! But then again, I am biased. I am a big AJF fan.
