SP July 4th Sale
- Thread starter AJL67
- Start date
Yeah I already bought myself some semois Le petit robin, three sails, and a new Savinelli tre rusticated 207 to go with my other two from the same line (pictured above). These two Savinellis are my most smoked briars by a country mile. I got pretty good deals from the sale. A new Savinelli for $85? You can’t beat that.
Yep! Got me today- stocked up on some G.L. Pease blends and the new Horizon Flake………
Not even if they were giving it away.
I saw the sale last night and ordered a new pipe. I will wait to reveal it in a post for its first smoke in the What are you smoking? thread. It will probably be here half way through July or early August. The super saver shipping was $6.66. 
Bought 2 lbs. of Three Sails and some pipe cleaners.
Bought 5 tins of Sir John's Flake Virginia (max allowed) and 5 tins of MB Virginia Flake. The good thing was, by checking this sale, I found Sir John's Flake Virginia available. After purchasing at SP I went to Tobacco Pipes and WCC, bought another 30 tins.
I usually order two tins of any GL Pease new issue, one to smoke and one to cellar. I figure it’s $25 well spent— at the price of two good cigars.
Horizon Flake is by far the best of this series to date. I search for “savory” in my pipe, and Horizon delivered in spades. The tin note was great barbecue, not spent campfire. Moist, yet ready to rub and smoked well straight out of the tin. Puff after puff of deep, complex flavors. I’m going to order some more.
Another pound of Pegasus, a handful of cigars...
I hope Smokingpipes continues to do well

Payroll ran before the sale ended, so I got a few blends to try and some I know I like.
Trying out McConnell Scottish Cake; GLP Kelly’s Coin and Cumberland; C&D DKF; and hopefully what will be a good, thoughtless smoke-half a pound of D&R Three Sails.
Half a pound of PS LNF (because more of that getting time time on shelf is always good).
And the strategy worked perfectly by adding one pack of cleaners:
Damn you Free Shipping!!

Two of my bosses are cigar aficionados. One commented on liking the smell of pipe tobacco and being intrigued.
So I picked up a few Savinelli starter kits and some pouches of various blends (which was cheaper than another site running a holiday sale). Christmas shopping for the bosses is done.

My order arrived today. It was scheduled to arrive Tuesday, so it was a nice surprise.

Great selection, everything there is near and dear to me-well except for the Pegasus
My pipe cleaners put me at $95 on the dot!

Yeah, I’m always shooting for that magic $95 as well
. I just looked at my receipt and I was actually at $99 before tax. I usually buy enough pipe cleaners with every order to put me over. I must have been thinking of another order so I edited my post.Haven’t tried Pegasus before so we will see how that goes.
I was going to say "not enough Pegasus," but if you've never tried it ...Yeah, I’m always shooting for that magic $95 as well

I hope you like it. Easily my favorite smoke
Lovely little Ropp
Made sure to take advantage of this one. Snagged two 16 oz. Mac Baren bags, Virginia Flake (my favorite straight VA flake) and Original Choice (the first blend I ever had). And so, once again...
