Hey Gang,
I spoke with Ryan at Famous Smoke Shop today and they have agreed to offer a 15% discount to us using the code “CIGARBUM15”. It is 15% off of orders $50 or more. Like all other codes, there are some brand restrictions and it excludes gift certificates, event tickets, Frenzy items, Create-a-Sampler, and Name Your Price items. They will raise the discount to 17% if they see a good amount of orders coming in from Cigar Bums. The code is active now so get shopping.

Thanks David and Ryan! About to place an order...
This is great David thanks. I'll be using it in April when in the US next.
I dont know who everyone is behind the scenes making this place feel like home, but Thank You!
SUPER! Anything for CI?
All of my requests to CI and their sister operations have been met with a "Fill out this form and if we have interest we will get back to you" and they usually don't.Quote:

Tell Famous Smokes they're gonna have to do better than this...

That's laughable.
Have you tried contacting them and trying to address your concern or did you just go straight here and flame them? Another option, if you are unsatisfied with the restrictions that are on some coupons, check out cigar auctioneer, cigar monster or their name your price section. All have great deals. Or you could simply choose not to do business with them.Quote:

That is a long list of excluded brands but they don't have to offer us anything at all, your not forced to buy there, and theres still solid brands that qualify for the promotion. Tatuaje, Kristoff, Crowned Heads, and La Palina being the first to come to mind.
My thoughts exactly. They don't HAVE to do jack.Quote:

Picking several cigars just to find every one you wanted is excluded from the discount is frustrating, however shopping directly from a discount list is a totally different story. That's more like fun. There might be such a list but I didn't notice it.
Never did much shopping at famous smoke, but maybe I'll go take a look now!
That is nice! thanks David.
Yeah I have to say I'm pretty pleased with the jar of Tat Black CGs I just got from Famous with the 15% discount.Quote:
