Any Lucky Cigar Buys?

The cigar Gods smiled on me a couple days ago and I thought I'd share my awesome good luck story!

As many of ya'll know, last weekend Holtz ran an awesome deal on Tat Havana VI Verocu #9s, a box of 20 for right at $100. I love Tat and hadn't tried those particular ones before so I decided to pick up a box. As I also like Benchmades for a good cheap smoke, I ordered two Benchmade Cazadores for sh*ts and giggles.
When I opened the package upon delivery it contained THREE boxes of cigars. One box of Tats and two boxes of Benchmades! Some ding-bat at Holtz confused my order of two single Benchmades for two boxes of 'em. All while still charging me only for two sticks. In total, I got 20 Tat Verocus and 50 Benchmades for a whopping $106.75!

This made me think if any other BOTLs have caught some lucky breaks over the years. Either in shipping mishaps as in my case or in finding that forgotten limited edition box in the back of your favorite B&M, I wanna hear some other fortunate findings or lucky breaks!
