Decisions, Decisions What to do?

[Day2Day]

Making out my tobacco order and torn between the old faithful blends I know and love and the new to me blends I want to try. Do I load up on the tried and true or mix in a couple of samples, or go a little over my monthly tobacco allowance and get it all?

I guess I could do some of that sweet, good husband shit and ask the wife naw better to plead for forgiveness than ask for permission. Thanks, fellow pipers for allowing me to work this out on the forms.

Definitely get it all. ice soup for the kids this week.

Buy it all and beg for forgiveness.

My excuse; it's an investment!

My excuse; it's an investment!

That's what I tell my wife, but she always looks skeptical.

No guarantee that your favorites won't be discontinued tomorrow. Stock up on as much of them as you can when you can.

If going over your allowance is an issue, I might suggest mowing the neighbor’s yard or walking their dogs to supplement your money.

Sorry, I just saw allowance and broke into my knee jerk talk with my kids.

If you really don't want to splurge, go with the new and give them a try. But then again, i'm not the person who can find "my single favorite." I wanna try them ALL!

I agree with Cosmic; a little side hustle for some extra cash, like mowing the neighbor's dog or walking their yard.

If you're dyslexic like me, that could be a problem though...

What are the tried and true vs the samples, you wish to try?

favorites are After Hours, Bourbon Blue, Good Morning, Interlude, Penny Farthing, Speakeasy and Ellipsis.

New to me would be, John Marr, Gillingham Mixture, Night Slice and Derringer.

I pulled the trigger and ordered 4 oz of it all.

Good move.

Now, your next order of business is to get your mail redirected for the next couple weeks. That way, when wifey's lawyer serves the divorce paperwork, you can claim plausible deniability: "Never showed up!"

Get a PO Box and just get your packages discretely whenever you want

The good thing is that all listed are Laudisi and probably not going anywhere soon. Price may increase, but that’s a given. That in itself would lead me to try new items in the genres you already enjoy.

Had you been asking about favorites that included overseas or small blending houses here or abroad, I’d say to go deep as you can.
