Not exactly, but I'm sure there will be some buy three get one free deal, some sampler sales and some box discounts.

Went to the event last night. Just wanted to say 'thanks' to Kevin and Marek at Utopia for a great event. They were workin hard. It was a solid turn out and lots of gars were smoked. I myself, got to try the Joya de Nicaragua Cabineta. I was pleasently surprised by this mild-medium stick. It has a Connie wrapper that goes down to the band and then has a darker wrapper down to the cap. It kind of starts off mild and builds up to medium. Very nice flavors too. I also had a JDN Antano. A very strong but smooth smoke. There were some great prizes raffled off, like a travel herfador filled with a DE sampler, some hats, some cutters and, of course, some gars. Plenty of pizza, beer, soda and cheesecake for everyone. Utopia is also updating their inventory and were showing off their new orders. Padrons are coming today! And I, for one, can't wait.

Nah. Oh well. I at least got to chew his ear for a few about them. He gave me some good info about how they're made and the difference between the T52 and the No 9. Interesting stuff.
