A question or two Before I make an order today!

[LazyLightning]

Good morning everyone,
I just have a couple quick questions before I place an order today.

I have several online vendors that are my "go to" spots when placing tobacco and or pipe orders, Smokingpipes, Pipes&Cigars, WVSmokeshop, etc.. I know that places like P&C and Smokingpipes sell both pipe and cigar goods, which is where I have been getting my sticks so far, as I try to find my likes and dislikes.

There is a thread here that has a list of good vendors in respect to cigars, with a small info description for each, about deals and such.

For someone like me I need a place that has a decent selection and the ability to buy singles. I don't feel comfortable yet buying a box of 5 or more cigars I have never tried. I was looking at Cigars International, because it seemed to fit the bill, and unless I am mistaken they own P&C.

So I guess I said all that to ask:
Where would be my best bet for a good selection of cigars w/ singles, while I am in this "taste" learning phase? Lastly, do any of them have free shipping on orders of $95-$100, like many of the pipe vendors I use? I hate to sound like a cheapskate, but I am on a fixed income so any savings if always helpful.

Thanks for any help & hope you all have a great weekend!
