Coolidor finally set up

MTuccelliMTuccelli Posts: 2,629 ✭✭✭
Yesterday Joeyjoe21_8 came over and gave me a hand setting up my coolidor. I ended up going with a 52 qt. cause it was only $21.00 at Kmart. The crumb catcher ran me $20.00 and I got that from the guy that did the shelves and trays for Zeebra. I didn't have enough boxes and no beads so Joe brought over some extra boxes and beads to get me going.

I had no idea how much inventory I had until we started laying it out. In the first picture that was from the ziploc baggies I had. There was also 3 large food containers (30 to 40 sticks ea.), 3 jars (25ct ea), 100ct humidor and 150ct humidor all full. A small portion was from trades and mooching and the majority was from purchased made after smoking the samples Sniper sent and various conversations with RCY Cigars and Joe as well as from reading reviews on here.

After the cooler was all packed I still had the 100ct filled to the brim and 2 Jars filled and a large ziploc baggie left. Most of what didn't make it in my coolidor will be my daily smoking inventory and used for drive bys. I can see that I will need a bigger cooler. Thanks for all your help Joe :o)

    Nice looking cooler Mike! I absolutely love my cooler but it's also nearly full. I'm really trying to exercise self-control; I keep telling myself two 100 counts and one cooler is enough tobacco to own but it's SO HARD to pass up on great deals...

    My friend, that is nice. I'm happy to see your on your way. Eventually that will be the back-up, messing around with the likes of Sniper, Zeebra and Joeyjoe.

    Yea right! We've discussed the habit of cigar buying. Sometimes it's just as fun getting the deals as it is smoking the cigar! You just have to tell someone when you smoke an awesome stick AND...when you score a sweet deal! Everyone gets bite from time to time. Sometimes the bug sticks with us for a while then moves on...but it always comes back around!

    Very nice coolidor brother. Highly impressive. I'm slowly shipping all my sticks home so they don't get yanked from customs. Who ever heard of only being able to send 200 sticks a day. Frickin retarded. My GF is getting her bro-in-law help to set one up for me for when my sticks start to arrive. Where did you get the crumb catcher?
