1 year and 1000+ Posts Later Contest!

edited January 2017 in Trades, Passes and Bombs

It’s hard to believe that it’s been a year that I’ve been enjoying this great hobby (obsession) and sharing it with all of you on the forum. I started out by buying a humidor that came with a 10 pack of cigars and I remember going on this forum and thinking how in the world did these guys/gals get such large collections of cigars. Now a year later I have a nice size collection and the wife is not too happy. I do love going through my cigars to find the next one I will be enjoying the following day. This forum is such a great place. I've met a lot of great people and I’m looking forward to another great year.

Got me thinking of an idea for a contest…



This one is pretty easy.

“How many packages did I send out in 2016 (January 1 – December 31)”

Bonus question:

"How much did I pay in postage” Must be with-in $5 of the exact amount

Winner will get a nice 5’ver and if you get the bonus question right, I’ll toss in a few of my favorite cigars  :)

Rules:

1 guess per day

Contest will run till someone guesses the right number. 

You must be on the “Good Traders and Stand Up Folks” list

    Great contest idea. I will guess 34 packages and $280 shipping. I'd be curious to know how much I've spent on shipping over the years. More than what I ever thought I'd spend on cigars when I first got back into the hobby.
