As a father of a 1 year daughter old I've had less and less time to smoke a 2 hour cigar (I'm a slow puffer). I've decided that a pipe would be a fun addition to my tobacco arsenal. I see that you guys recommend a cob for a newbie such as myself.

It's a beautiful Sunday afternoon and I've got some yard work to do after I watch the USA women win the world cup . So if at all possible I'd like to pick up a pipe today to accompany my work. I've seen lots of websites that have the MM corn cobs, but haven't seen any B&Ms in your posts. Do you guys know of any drug stores that may have one?

Thanks for your help and for getting me to dive into a new hobby!

I came online to start a near identical thread. I will listen in.

What I do know is that a lot of drug stores carry them.. I've seen them in Rite-Aid for a few bucks!

Walgreens is another drug store that usually carries MM cobs. If it is not a Missouri Meerschaum, don't buy it.

Specificlly, I can't tell you exactly which stores carry them because is seams like not all walgreens, rite aids carry them but being in York you shouldn't have too hard of a time finding some.

I'd also try any of the local antique stores. I picked a couple MMs up the other day at a local one we have here in my little town and am quite happy with them.

Thanks! I was hoping drug stores had MMs, as I've heard that exact sentiment before!

Around here, in central GA, all that is available in drug stores are the Legends. Decent pipe, but if yo are like me and end up preferring cobs to briars, check the various pipe web sites and get one of MM's better pipes with the hardwood plug. Also they are a little larger.
