A Request to Our Customers

Guys,

This is the first time I have put an open request on our forum, but this is something that means a lot to me so I want to enlist your help. This weekend, for Independence Day Weekend Blitz, we are doing something special. We are offering up our usual crazy deal (I think this weekend is $144 Value for $49.95) but Cigar.com will be donating $10 for every sampler sold to the Second Ranger Battalion Assistance Foundation (www.assistrangers.org). Many of my friends fought in with the 2nd Ranger Battalion in the middle east so this foundation holds personal significance (my best friend growing up served as a Captain). As such, I really want to make this weekends deal a huge hit and make a big impact. If you could post the deal on any other fourms you associate with and if you have been waiting for a deal to support, buy one yourselves it would mean a great deal to me and all of us over at Cigar.com Our men and women fighting over seas for the freedoms we so much enjoy are so important, giving back this weekend is the only thing that has been on my brain the last few days. Anyway, your support is always appreciated. This is the first time we are doing something like this.

    Sounds good to me. Help the troops and get cigars? Not a bad deal.

    I think many will be happy to support the site, and your cause. I'm going to see if I can get everyone working on our cigar blog to buy one, and do panel reviews of whatever it is that's included. Another big ups to ccom for doing something awesome like this.

    Where did you find it? Is it on the site or do you have to call in for it?

    It is on the home page, right under the changing picture. It is title Weekend Blitz or something like that.

    It certainly helps that you guys are throwing insane deals at us constantly. I like your cause Alex, and even though I'm maxed out on space, I bought one of the specials simply because it is going to a good cause. Keep up the good work.

    I went to order and the price for me said $129.60. Is it possible that as a cotm member it's giving me 10% off the list, instead of just the blitz price? Shows the $129.60 in the cart, too. Any ideas, other than waiting until ordering hours and calling?
