I bought cigars at the local beer stop until I discovered CB. They had a nice selection though, displayed in boxes on shelves behind glass doors, each cigar with its own price code, which they scanned at check out. One Friday I picked an Ashton Churchill out of its box of 25 (two or three already missing and handed it over. The clerk scanned the price code on the cigar and said $2.56, $9 something with the six-pack. That was the best under-$3 cigar I had smoked up to that time. The next week I stopped in the store and picked up the whole box and cigars left in it. The clerk scanned the price code on the box bottom and said $168. I put the box back. Either the cigars were mispriced or I guess the boxes do cost more than the smokes in 'em
