Does this happen to you?

I was at the dentist office the other and was told that I needed a crown. $500. The first thing that went through my mind was not about the tooth, but rather which ciger boxes that money would buy. It happens every day. Take the family out to dinner, there goes a box of monticristos, need new tires- there goes an entire order to CI and so on and so on. This cigar fever is not getting better it seems to get worse. But I don't want a cure! It ever happen to you?

$500 for a crown sounds like a bargain to me. Just got whacked for $1,200 for the wifes crown.
 
When you start calculating your gas tank fillup in Davidoff's, you have several problems.

(It cost me 4.298 #5000's to fill up the Ford! Holy crap!)

I dropped a box of Sig II's and a Box of Esplendidos on maintenance for the Expedition yesterday. :hn
 
The crown over here costs this country millions and we cant even sell it!!:chk
Dentists- You just gotta grin n bare it!Im too long in the tooth to care!
 
Happens to me all the time as a college student with a limited budget. I have to tell you the best part of the year was selling my books back that was at least a hundred bucks to put towards the cigar fever and there is nothing wrong with that. Other then those lucky moments I def had to budget my cigar habit.
 
My teeth are fine, but it is the wife that is the crown queen and I do the same thing. Cigars, salt water fish, or crowns.

Really can get a guy down!!!

Maybe I'm lucky but I happened upon a dentist that smokes cigars. He's comp'd me several times over the years, including a box of No. 4's when I had my crowns done. I was totally taken aback when I learned he was an avid cigar smoker.
 
This is funny, cause now that you mention it...I do this as well. For example, our AC unit needed leveling, cleaned and a shot of freon which came to about $191. I wasn't pissed about the AC needing the tune up, but the first thing I thought was "S**t, that could have been a box of sticks and a Palio!". Ugh, the joys of homeownin'!

It wasn't nearly as costly as the crown, but I guess what I'm saying is...Im with ya!
