What to do next

[Wolfpack Smokes]

I have fallen victim to the slippery slope. In very little time I have gone from a Ziploc and a water pillow to being cramped for space in two humidors. Instead of buying yet another large desktop and repeating the cycle, I'm thinking about building a coolidor. But I've been told that those too will fill quickly and soon I'll be wishing I'd just used the money to invest in a cabinet.

To those of you have encountered this problem, what did you do? Would you do it differently today?

Best,

Austin

The best way to not buy too many cigars is to get married. With my wife I don't have the money or space for a huge stash.

But seriously, a large cooler should be plenty unless you are buying a lot more than you can smoke in a year. Id recommend looking at how often you smoke and use that to figure out a decent number of sticks to aim for. Too many and they might start losing flavor before you get to them.

That of course flies out the window if you specifically want to age a box for several years. In that case id ignore the baxes you want to age while determining your cigar total to keep on hand.

For me that number would be 150-175. Roughly a year of smoking. I'm no where near that high yet.

Winedor. But mainly because of temp swings. well and it looks better than a cooler sitting in my living room

Nah, do the Coolidor. It has held out very well for me to keep me happy with my stock!

My Original plan was to keep 250ish sticks in my humidors to smoke and then some boxes in a big sterilite to age.

Now that I'm at 2 Large desktops, 1 54qt sterilite, and a mini fridge and excess of 700 sticks I kind of wish I had just gone with an Aristocrat from day 1.....or a walk in..that may have actually been better for me lol

After a 25 ct, 2 100 counts and a maybe 300-400ct... I have been sucked down the coolidor path....

I have used it all...started with a desktop, then 2 of them, then a mini fridge and the 2 humidors, then a converted cabinet and then after life kicking me in the balls I ended up with a cooler...its cheap, its easy and it fits in my closet.

Unless my wife decides differently and when I need more storage I will stay with coolers.
