Come on JZ, one always takes a cigar gift with a smile, even if the giver is overweight, 72 years old, and toothless! Right?

Keep a humidor on your desk lol....they will definately talk with you about it and when its present time certainly look at what you keep in it!

JUST ANOTHER DAY IN PARADISE...

Drop some hints or leave your favorite bands on her desk...lol

HA! My wife wouldn't even look at them, she'd just pick them up and throw 'em away as fast as she could; catalogues, bands, even the cigars themselves would end up in the garbage. Needless to say, she hates that I smoke.

Very cool.
My birthday is coming up, and the new holiday ccom guide just showed up in my mail.

I cleaned up my desk last week, maybe I should clutter it up some the new catalogue....

I guess I should consider myself lucky. When the new ccom catalog came in, my wife asked that I circle several things I might like. She would get some of them and I would still be surprised because I wouldn't know which ones.

She doesn't mind my smoking, but I do not smoke in the house. She has asthma and is an ex-smoker. During the summer, she will sit outside with me while I smoke. The bad news is that winter is coming to the Northeast and my shed is not heated or insulated. My B & M does not have a lounge, although he says he is going to build one. I'll just have to stand up and smoke in his shop.

My wife also asked me yesterday to write down some cigars I dont have or would like to have and maybe a couple of other cigar related things as well ...I think its going to be a good christmas !!!

I have been sending links to cigar stuff to my fathers email, hopefully he gets the hint!

GO 'CUSE!!!

I just talked with my boss re: my 30th birthday coming up next month. I dropped cigar.com name a few times :)

Good time for another update of this thread. Our office Christmas party was this weekend, and I got an Ashton Box from my staff (didn't know what was in it till I got it home). Jackpot! 4 GOF's, 2 ESG's, 2 Padron Family Reserves, and 2 Davidoff 702's. So again, I thank everyone here for the great suggestions on how to drop hints to maximize one's odds for getting something decent. I don't see how I can ever outdo this year's selection. My only regret is that some of those cigars are too elegant and expensive to smoke on routine occasions!

ask for nothing or ask for a non cigar related gift.

+1, just to be on the safe side

It's one thing to be stupid, it's dangerous for a stupid person to think he's smart!

We have an idiot policy, only 1 is allowed in our building at a time!

So what did the trick? Just the Ccom catalogs, or did you have to get more direct?
