I think a few of the Gurkha Micro batches are great budget sticks, with the Box pressed lancero being my favorite. I find myself not really smoking a lot of "bargain" cigars these days though, as the internet offers
so many opportunities to get great cigars at like 3 or 4 dollars a piece (I have a pretty good stash of MOWs and Padilla Dominus that I got for between $3 and $4 each, which for me is pretty good for a daily cost!) I think the Padron brown label line is great for a low cost smoke. I also like the Nica Libre, Sol Cubano CC, La Herencia Cubana, and Diesel as cigars that can be had, online, for realllllly low prices. Just gotta catch the deals when they are out there, or talk the beard into giving you a ridiculous price (offer his grooming products to keep the beard clean and proper)
Funny, one of the reps at ccom just recommended the Gran Habano Vintage 2002 as a great budget stick and I had to agree. I told him I had just smoked one the other day and will probably end up picking up a mazo of 20 at some point. I had a bit of a wavy burn, but at $2 a stick, you can't go wrong! The flavors were great at just about any price point below $10.

Ive wanted to get some of them but I dont want to commit to 20 without trying it first.

Biggest value to me is the La Hernecia Cubana Oscuro. I dont know regular price, but I know you can get some good bulk deals, and its well worth the price in them.
to Jsaint and surfingzeeko, I'm sure if you call in with your next order, they'll give you a decent price. Although the single price is somewhere around 3 or 4 bucks.
Definitely gotta go with the La Herencia Cubana Oscuro Fuerte. I tried my first one about a month ago, and have to say this may be my first box purchase. I was in shock when I first saw how cheap they were! Would have easily guessed it would have been a $10+ stick...
I've got 3 off the top of my head.. Gran Habano Vintage 2002, Puros Indios Viejo Maduro, and Bahia Maduro.. you can get all of these in mazos of 20 for less than $40 each and they're all fabulous smokes
+1 to anything A.J. does. Also have to add Arturo Fuente curly heads. Boxes of 40 for cheap and even though they are not long filler they are made with consistency. Cuban crafters cupido criollo, nice smokes for a nice price.
i used to love the Free Cuba brand. they need to sit in a humidor thats at 65% for about 6 months to get the good burn but at $1 a stick i was very happy with them.
