Default Cheap but tasty suggestions

So,
As i have started buying for two, i am looking for a decent cheap stick. Doesn't need any complexity. I have good cigars for when i have time to indulge myself.
But one decent flavor note and burns ok.

Just wondered if you have an inexpensive (bundle type) cigar that you enjoy and recommend.

Everybody's idea of "cheap" is different. What price point per stick you looking for?

The Brick is made by Carlos Torano and can be gotten for about $60 for 25.
El Rey del Mundo Robustos are a sweet and immensely tasty stick that can be had for about $60 for a box of 20.

A pair from CI/cigar.com:
Cuba Libre One by Plasencia has a rousing Habano-seed ligero wrapper from Honduras. On sale now -- nab it for $50 a box for 5x52 robustos.
Better is Pueblo Dominicano by AJ Fernandez -- mondo bargain spicefest with a Habano sungrown Oscuro wrapper from Ecuador. Consistently cheap by the box or sampler at cbid.

I'm not sure how cheap is cheap in your eyes, but my favorites are Brickhouse Maduros, Arturo Fuente Chateau Fuente, Marco V (might not be in your area), as well as the Padilla Hybrids. Good luck! Finding a bargain stick you like is one pleasure of this hobby that can really pay off.

I'm a big fan of the Famous Nic 5000 Toros...bundle of 20 for $ 45.99. If you can let them sit a few months, even better.

Terry, you've been given a bunch of great suggestions already. If you are looking to purchase a few different singles to try to see what you might like, Dewey Ave Smoke Shop in Rochester has some of the best prices in the area for a B&M.

Padron x000 series and the green banded Arturo Fuente cigars are good quality, consistency, and won't break the bank!

I've been smoking up Ramon Bueso Genesis like crazy lately. I hear that they age nicely too, but I can't keep them around long enough to find out.

On CI, you can get a Diesel sampler or CAO sampler for $3 a stick....recommend you give them a shot, see if you find something you really like, you get a number of choices to sample....big Diesel fan myself, and many are just $3 a piece in boxes.......also, I believe they have some Perdermo marduro seconds, a wheel of 20 is like $60, those are yummy too...

+1 on the El Rey del Mundo Robustos mentioned above.

I picked up a 10 pack of PDR1878 Red on sale for $3 per stick not too long ago, damn tasty.

I didn't want to like it but the Brickhouse Mighty Maduro is about $7 depending where you are.
