if you are smoking for flavor then cigarettes kill your sense of smell and ruin your palate. you will taste more of the cigar without cigarettes.
if you are smoking for nicotine then the delivery system of nicotine that cigars has is very different than the one for cigarettes. cigars will not give the addiction calming effects that a cigarette will. i have seen people light up a cigarette WHILE SMOKING A CIGAR.
not trying to offend anyone here but i just dont get it.
Why? So I could spend that money on cigars. And I bet my wife I could quit cold turkey. I won.
Best move ever. Not only am I relatively healthier, but I now have an extra $150/month for cigars. win/win
I do smoke both.....but don't inhale the cigar.
I switched from Camel Wides to rolling my own not too long ago. The Indian reservation I used to buy at finally caved to the man and now only sell their own brand (which is nasty unfortunately). I used to pay $60/carton and thought it was a "deal" Decided that I had to either quit or find some other solution when my only Camel options were closing in on $10/pack. With rolling my own I have to waste 15 minutes or so every other day but I spend less than a buck fifty per pack now. Wish I had done this a long time ago.......especially since I hardly notice a difference in flavor.
Now if only they could somehow make smoking good for you :-)
I probably smoked regular packaged cigarettes, usually Camel light or Camel wide, for about 25 years altogether, sort of on and off. I long felt that cigars were just too expensive, although I did still smoke them, usually buying a box and finishing it in a month or so, then might be a few weeks or months until another box.
After changing to smoking 99% cigars and the other 1% between the occasional cigarette or pipe, I find that I no longer hack when I wake up, wheeze when I exert myself, or produce thick brown sputum. Nor do I find myself at work or in the car with that overwhelming need to smoke right now or go crazy. Life is much better on my basic 2 cigar a day plan.

Good for you, my friend. You made an excellent choice. Cigarettes are killers......
And these are only SOME of the benefits of kicking the cigarettes to the curb. Sounds like you have a workable plan going, here. Good move, Bro.
When I was in college I smoked both ... but I never inhaled.
Later in life, when I used the cigar, it was not lit. That is, depending what your definition of was was.
Come on, Mon, inhale my cigar. That's a good girl.
