...until I joined this forum. I had a huge collection of antique amber glass with secure lids that I packed with cedar and a humidifier. Also had a bunch of those acrylic thingies in various sizes, again packed with cedar and a humidifier. Each one held one brand of cigars and they were stashed all over the place. It was a pretty good system.

    That's the way they did it way back when. Works great. Who needs a humi? LOL

    At first I was aprehensive about using them.... but after I realized that they hold humidity perfect and being clear makes it easy to see bugs, mold or the stick you want. My kids have never eaten so many pickles in there life suddenly.

    Give it a few years.
    Then SHE will hide some of YOUR cigars on you.
    My wife has a humi she stashes special cigars on me.
    I've lost some PSD4s, a 160 and some Torano 1916s to the humi she hides.
    I've looked all over the house for it and never have found it.
    Then when she thinks I need a special cigar, she grabs the cigar and gives it to me.
    I have yet to figure out where she hides it.

    Money can't buy happiness, but it can buy cigars and that's close enough.
