First purchase of 2026?

[spearheadbill]

Ok I know someone bought a pipe or tobacco already this group isn’t known for slacking! Who and what is it?

 

[BingBong]

No, everyone is strictly sticking with their resolutions, have faith man.

 

[B.Lew]

Nothing from me yet. I’ve been what they call “professionally restored”!

I loaded up on Frosty Mint and Buoy Gold so there's nothing I really need this year.

Well Bill, thanks for asking. My shopping cart at SP currently contains a modest selection of a few ounces each of a few bulk blends I haven't tried nor need (Exclusive, Winchester, Yorktown). Mind you, this list of tobaccos to order isn't set in stone and is tweaked randomly. The trigger won't be pulled until just the right Pete 301 that I don't need shows up. Currently the pickings are slim.

Happy new year!

I don't know if this qualifies, I saw this cob on eBay Sunday and put a $15 bid on it when the auction closed yesterday, I won.

This was my last purchase of 2025. Late enough certain timezones listed it as the first purchase

That's going out with a bang! Or a great start! I didn't know sets were still available

I picked up a vintage Dr Grabow freehand pipe.

I made sure to make my last TAD I. My time zone to not be considered 2026.

Debating on either a dr grabow pipe or some tobacco I haven't had yet.

Maybe both..

When this popped up in my eBay I couldn't resist her charm!

I purchased four estate pipes on the bay that arrived yesterday. So, I'm currently working on cleaning those up. I am also waiting on a decent size tobacco order to arrive.
This Savinelli Churchwarden is one of four that I received.
