Getting others hooked
 

I have been trying to find something that the cigarette smokers at work might like to smoke for a cigar. I think I found something that is working. Now, mind you these are cigarillos, but are about the size of a cigarette. They are Don Lino Habanitos. I recently snagged a tin of 50 from the devil site and decided to take them to work and see if anyone would like them. Mind you I have never tried them either so it was an experiment of a largish scale. I think I handed out about 20-30 of them. Just about everyone who tried one liked them. One guy asked me to order him one. Well I bid on two on the devil site and got them both. Now a couple of other guys want the second tin. :D So far so good.....

Give them time to get use to the cigarillos and hand them something a tad bigger (Small Panetela or a PC) and see what they think. Might have a new smoking buddy.

I saw that on an ABC After School Special way back in the 80s.

Peer pressure! It'll make you feeeel gooood!

Seriously, I might do that at my work... So crazy - It just might work...

Cheers,

Good story.

Im always trying to get my mates hooked as I dont know any other regular cigar smokers (eg with a humidor). So far I have three mates that really love it. But none of them have purchased a humidor yet...

Great idea. Hopefully they'll become regulars.

I'm in the same boat James. I have some buddies who will smoke a cigar if I hand them one, but few have humis.

ACIDs.

I used to smoke the Krush tin cigarillos at work and people would actually go out of their way to tell me they smelled good.

Have them sign up here. They'll be halfway down the slope and picking up speed before they know what hit them. :r

Yup...foot in the door principle. Start small...work your way up. Does it ever feel like we are drugs pushers? :D
