Back when Djarum black clove cigarettes were still legal, I would go down to Jon’s Pipe Shop in Champaign, IL to buy them. This little shop is located right in the heart of the U of I campus area. You begin to smell the shop before you even see it. The aroma of people smoking cigars and cigarettes wafts out from the store and down the street. During the summer’s warm months, they keep the doors of the shop wide open. The establishment may be small, but it is hard to miss. The staff is very friendly and willing to help you with whatever you need. They know everything about the products they sell and can help you find exactly what you are looking for. You can see their passion for what they do and know that they truly enjoy their jobs. Jon’s has a great selection of pipes and cigars to choose from, along with hard to find cigarettes. If you live on campus it is worth it to be able to just walk down the street to get your smokes. You will not regret making the trip!

Whether you are an everyday tobacco smoker or just a social one, you will love the Cape Smoke Shop. The products are always of the best quality with, by far, the best and most surprising prices. The Smoke Shop carries everything you could possibly want. They have tobacco and rolling machines to hand roll your own cigarettes at home as well as the good old favorites. If cigars are more your style, they also have the best high end cigars that I could find in Cape Coral. Most are kept in a walk in Humidor, and they sell many types of smaller humidors for your home. There are also several types of dips, pipe tobaccos, cigarillos and clove cigarettes among many other things. The Cape Smoke Shop also has, hands down, the best customer service available in a tobacco shop in this area. Everyone working there is always very quick and happy to help find anything you could be looking for. The building is in a very central location on a main road, making it very easy to get to. All in all, I would rate the Cape Smoke Shop in Cape Coral, FL as the absolute best tobacco shop that I have ever been to.

If you are looking for the best place to watch a game and have a great cigar in north Texas look no further then the Cigar Lounge in McKinney. They have a wide selection of pipe tobacco and cigars and a knowledgeable staff so you can always find the perfect smoke. They also carry some of the best coffee in the world. Become a member for even more fun. If you go, be sure to check out the walk-in humidor. The staff is familiar with the products and is happy to give advice and recommendations (so are most of the regular customers too). I have seen the owner identify a cigar just by a customer’s description. The front room is open to all. Feel free to sit and watch TV or talk to the other customers while enjoying your purchase. You can also buy coffee by the cup. Members can watch the game in the “members only” lounge, which has a big screen TV and leather chairs. Coffee by the cup is free to members or you can BYOB. As a member, you will get access to special prices and events. A lot of members that work remotely will work from the Cigar Lounge for a change of scenery and it’s easy to do with their free wi-fi. The owner’s name is Igor and he is there almost every day of the week. The regulars are friendly and always have a good time. Ask about the next poker game if you like Texas Hold’em. The place is a great hang out for the guys. To find more great places visit globalYP.net, online yellow pages.

We recently had some plumbing work done by Hub Plumbing And Mechanical of South Boston, MA. We were very impressed. We put in a request on the website to have someone contact us with an appointment, and we heard back promptly. The plumbers arrived at the scheduled time, poked around, asked us a lot of questions about what we were looking to do, and came up with an estimate. They were very thorough and honest in coming up with an estimate of the cheapest/minimal way they could do the job and have it be functional and legal, along with an estimate of the best way to do the job. They were respectful of our choices and honest about their recommendations. They really know what they’re doing, while at the same time are respectful of people who are doing their own renovations. I particularly found them great to work with being a woman with a very strong carpentry background who is doing my own renovations aside from the plumbing; they didn’t question that I know what I’m doing, which is probably the first time I’ve had this experience with home contractors. They seemed very comfortable asking me how I wanted things and what I planned to do afterward, and did exactly what I asked. They were very considerate of our home and highly detail-oriented in cleaning up after themselves and asking before they touched just about anything. Overall working with Hub Plumbing (located at 70 Old Colony Ave) was a wonderful experience, and I would recommend them to anyone looking for honest, efficient and respectful plumbing services.
