Default Famous Smoke Catalog

I got my Famous Smoke catalog in the mail today. Does anybody else love when they receive these to check out everything on print instead of on the internet? Doesn't have to be from famous, it can be from JR's or anywhere.

I don't look at cigar catalogs. My B&M has the best prices on pretty much anything.

I love reading cigar catalogs, even from crappy vendors like Thompson. It's fun to read the glowing descriptions of the latest dog rocket.
When I moved 5 years ago I had to throw out all my old JR catalogs. I'm kicking myself now. They were from back in the day when you could get a good box of Fuentes for less than 30 bucks. I think the first box of Cuban Coronas I bought were less than 25 bucks.
Once in a while I find my self thinking of ordering from some companies just so I can get the catalogs to look at.

A lot of the companies will send you the catalog for free without having to place an order.

I read them constantly, I have about 10 CI catalogs laying around and I don't even really order from them anymore.

not gonna lie, I love looking through my CI catalog when I get it in the mail. I have never ordered anything (for obvious reasons), but its good to see that our prices are still competitive even against big names like CI!
