We are continuing our T-shirt promotion! For any purchase over $40.00, you will receive a free O'Sullivan T-shirt, as long as supplies last (and we have a lot!). After that, if you wear that shirt when you come into the store, you will get 10 percent off your purchase. The shirt is a Hanes cotton T, with our logo silkscreened in full color and website URL on it. Even our mailman (AND UPS guy, AND a guy in Luxemborg) has an O'Sullivan shirt, so get yours while I feel like giving away free stuff. Hey! Get your shirt! I worked hard on that thing. When ordering, remind Tom to give you the shirt--he thinks it's a dumb idea and doesn't want to do it.

Due to lack of time to get stuff done, we are still in the process of making up the bumper stickers. These will be free with every purchase. (Hooray for crack-'n-peel). They will be done when the printer guy across the hallway from us gets time to print them, I promised him the job.

Smoking is allowed at O'Sullivan Cigar store. Because our store is owner-operated, with no employees, we are able to allow cigar smoking on the premises.

Fake Cohibas? CHECK THE LABEL!

Good grief! A lot of people are running around, buying fake Cohibas. Then, they are trying to sell them to us! Ha Ha Ha! Even if they were real, what would we do with them??? It's illegal for us to sell Cubans. We run a legit store. But, if you are thinking of buying that nice-smelling box of Cohibas, check the label for typeface and printing authenticity, make sure the stamp is woodburned into the bottom of the box, and for Jeez' sakes, don't buy the Torpedo. They don't make a Torpedo.

The most recent fakes that were shown to us smelled Cuban, looked Cuban, and even had the logo woodburned into the bottom of the box. The printing on the label passed the Crystal test of authenticity (because I know a lot about printing press stuff), but they were Torpedoes. We checked around and decided they were very well made fakes, possible even real Cuban tobacco used, but definately not Cohibas. The major flaw? They didn't draw well at all, every single one was plugged.

EVENTS:

Well, the big 'ol Clayton Art & Wine festival is coming up, and we will have a booth there for the fourth consecutive year. They usually stick us right next to the wine booths, so see you there.
