Just go to your local Tobacconist or Cigar shop and ask them what they would suggest within your budget, this way you will avoid any shipping charge.
If they have any Arturo Fuente cigars, buy a couple, as they are probably the most universally loved fine stogies available.
If you have to go to an online vendor, be aware that you will need to supply them with proof of age. This will take a day or so to accomplish.
But here are some quality samplers within your price range (including shipping)

decided on the Oliva sampler you posted as well as a single “Romeo y Julieta Vintage Vintage IV 7 × 48”
they didn’t require proof of age unless they haven’t sent it yet. i probably should have shopped around before purchasing but i hope they’ll be enjoyed anyway.
thanks for all of your help @Calyxander
I like and use Holts.com exclusively, but have used CI in the past.
Here is another one:

Used to order a lot when I could send it to a hotel across the border on an overnight shopping but will be a bit before we can do that again.
I smoked a delicious New World Puro Especial by AJ Fernandez to break in the New Year.
For whatever reason, I found this to be an excellent intro as to why I like cigars, and I was compelled to share here.
ETA; I like to smoke some delectable buds before I smoke a choice cigar.
The cannabis actually amplifies and enhances the hypnotic cigar smoke.
I like cigars more I like the smell of cigars and pipes with out weed lol,my dad smoked a pipe st Bruno pipe tabacco always remember the smell,use to be a little cigar shop around the corner from me did hand rolling them as well,they turned it into a little coffee shop now
I smoke a cigar or 3 a year… had a killer bee a week or so ago
I’d smoke a cigar if I had one
Well, I would advise you to go to your nearest tobacconist and pick an inexpensive stick to enjoy.
If you are not used to cigars, Baccarat or Macanudo are mild and tasty, and they will transport you to an enjoyable state of relaxation. The Baccarats are cheaper than Macanudos, but both provide satisfaction and blissful smoke.
Define recent. People been smoking weed rolled in tobacco wraps for at least 30 years to my knowledge.
just seeing if i can revive this thread, if it’s worth it.
“and this is gregorio, a regular customer of the restaurant who has smoked 16 cigars a day since the age of 12. next may he’ll be 14 years old.”
It’s always fun to revive a thread and keep the conversation going. As for Gregorio, smoking 16 cigars a day since the age of 12 is quite a unique story. It’s important to remember that underage smoking is not safe, and it’s crucial to prioritize health and well-being.On a different note, if you’re interested in unique discussions or exploring new topics, you might want to check out interplas.com.
