There are some great sticks at that price, but I can't regularly afford those. I save them for when I can go to a good B&M and smoke it there. Again, @Bruck , no judgment here, LOVIN' the G2 Maddy. I think eventually I will have a list of occasional $10+ sticks that rivals my $5 max list, but that'll be a long ways out
That's a different animal all together IF I had a B&M I could frequent and went with the intention of enjoying a good stick in the lounge with some other Bums and supporting the shop I'd do the same thing. Since I'm only ever smoking at home by myself or on the golf course I tend to try to stay around $3 per +/- and smoke what I enjoy in that range.

Like @Old Smokey said about steaks and burgers.
When I go out I usually get a steak and at home I cook more burgers than I do steaks.
