How many times a day do you check the daily deal?

I find myself checking 4-6 times at day. It's a bad addiction and my wife doesn't know. I check first thing, around 10am est, after 1 pm, 4pm, 6pm and again at 9 pm. I run home so I can beat her home so I can unpack them, destroy the evidence, and store them before she gets home(JK). I got it bad and need help so I created C.C.B.A, Complusive Cigar Buyers Anonimus. Signs are checking cigars.com more than 4 times a day. Rating cigars and encouraging others to buy, Buying two or more daily deals a week, checking 2 or more cigar site a day, and hiding my affliction from my wife. If you fit this profile don't deny it and show your support by posting your complusive addiction stories here. I'm here for all CCBAs everywhere.

    I check it, a LOT. The side-effect is that I just CANT pay normal prices for cigars anymore!!

    I used to check a lot but I have slowed down quite a bit and only check every other day.

    I make it all one-stop. Check the daily deal then hit the forums to see what's up.

    Hello, my name is Bigharpoon and I'm a compulsive DD checker.

    It started out small enough, just one humi. Then I got another, and another. Before I knew it I was stuffing cigars into a big red cooler. I told myself all kinds of stories, like: it was actually SAVING me money to buy cigars on sale; I had to keep up to date to recognize when a good deal arrived, etc. etc.

    I couldn't stop myself. All I wanted to do was smoke good cigars and rummage through my humidors. I couldn't concentrate at work. But it's okay, I'm still in control, I don't have a problem...

    I have direct links (even an app) to a few websites on my phone and check them throughout the day. I agree with everything said so far, but I don't have a problem ;) LOL

    UMMMM...UUUUMMMM, I have the site up in the background while at work and I check the forum and the DD at least 2-3 times within a 10 min period, all day. Is that bad?

    If I don't sign off, does that still count more than just once?

    At least 5-6 times a day. Sometimes i'll check it, then check it again 10 minutes later "just incase" i missed something. It's like back in high school and you were waiting for the phone call from the pretty girl in class, so you would randomly pick up the phone just to make sure it was working. Tell me i wasn't the only one who did that :(

    At the least 3 times a day. But when I'm stocked up and have no room I try not to look, it hurts too much.
