So, the minor problem I see with this thread is that we didn't define the $$ range for bargain. Of course, bargain means different things to different people. To me, bargain sticks are under $3.00 each. What I got the other day was a bargain, normal $6.00 sticks for $2.50. And nobody anywhere is going to tell me that deal wasn't a bargain. OK, it was more a steal... But, that isn't a normal bargain cigar.

So, for my $$, the biggest bargain stick (normally under $3.00 a cigar) is Omar Ortez - usually about $2.60 a stick and excellent.
+1 on the "bargain" thing. To me, a stick has to be under $3 to be a "cheap smoke." In that category, I'd nominate:

Perdomo ESV 2nds
Rocky Patel Olde World Reserve 2nds
Padilla 1968
Tatuaje Series P
RP Vintage '92 2nds
Oliva G


For MEGA CHEAP (i.e. yard gars), like $1.50/stick, I like:

RP Nicaraguan Factory Selects "Liga B" robustos (CI/Cbid)
RP Fusion 2nds
Indian Tabac Cameroon Legend
5 Vegas Classic/Gold
