Every new month when you hop onto CI.com to browse their fine wares you get that little pop-up message asking for your email address to win some prize, right? And they have my email anyway, so I always fill that thing out. I haven't bought anything from them in almost a year and a half, but I got a shipping message from them a couple days ago.
So it turns out they really do send out those prizes to "Billy-Bob G. in Prairie Grove, AR" and "Timothy E. in Fort Worth, TX".
Also turns out that April's prize was pretty solid. All La Palina stuff, including a heavy plastic ashtray, a nice indoor crystal ashtray, a tshirt, a hat, and then the good stuff...
- A 5er of Red Label robustos
- A box of Mr. Sam coronas
- A box of El Diario Kill Bills
- A box of Classic robustos
- A box of Family Series Pashas
All total it's 85 cigars, and I bought a new cooler yesterday to house these and the other CC splits I have going now lol. Pretty nice little Christmas in May for me. I have a feeling a couple of these might make their way out in bombs too, who knows...

Well crap. You can't beat that. I guess if I had to lose at least it's to another bum!
I enter whatever it is pretty much every month. Like you said, they already have my email and shipping info from buying from them.

Congrats on the epic WIN!
(I never fill out sweepstakes. I have some kind of aversion to them. I don't plan to start either.)Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity.

That is awesome! I am always tempted to enter myself, but I think that kind of ruins the point of it
