Just got back from a B&M with:

2 Sharks $10.00 each

2 48's $8.50 each

2 46's $7.50 each

I just wish the poor bastards bidding on the 5 pack lived near by!

Great price on the 48. here the cheapest was $10 + tax. If that included tax on the sharks great price as well. Only 1 local still has them and he wants around $12 + tax.

I saw 46s for $6.85, $7.15 and $8.65.

You have a good B&M. That's exactly what I paid for 2 Sharks and 2 46s. I smoke one of those 46s each New Year's eve while I deep fry the turkey. MMM MMM good!

Didn't see the 49s. But he always holds some back and then rolls them out after the holidays. He's got some Hemingway maduros and some little Opus X (I think) barber poles out now. I've had the Hemingway maddies. They're pretty good, too.

the barber poles are most likely Hemingway "Between the Lines"...........a nice find.

Last time I saw a shark at a local they were asking $20 + tax. Great smokes - and well wroth the price you paid in my opinion.

Sat. reloaded with the same bullets and he now has a box of AF "In between the lines" at 13.50 a stick, are they worth that?

I got 2 anyway! What the hell, they look great!

$13.50 is reasonable for a BTL.

Bluedevil.......

was it a "In Between the Lines" or "Between the Lines"?

There is a difference.

If it was the Former, 13.50 would be a screaming deal.......the latter is still a good deal...I paid 16$ last xmas......

From another spho I got:

Two Fuente Anejo #48 Maduro @ $9.00 each

Five Fuente Hemingway Work of Art Maduro @ $8.25 each

Pretty decent IMO.

Yes, I think you're right Andy. Never smoked many barber poles. Might try one of those, though. They're not moving very fast.

Thanks to a deserving BOTL, having a #50 this minute. How can anything be so strong, yet so smooth? Heaven!
