I know in my household the current economic situation has affected my ability to keep my two humi's fully stocked, how bout you guys? How low can I go before it's considered a cigar shortage crisis?

If I keep bombing people, my stash is gonna get low. But I got a loooong way to go before that happens. BTW, if anyone says yes in this thread, they are just asking for a beat down.

Mine keeps increasing, but I do find myself trying to find cheaper sticks to smoke. I don't want to smoke a $10 stick every time.

I have enough smokes to last me until about March, then I'm in danger of running out completely. That's almost a year from when I last made a box purchase, so I guess I know the answer to those "how long would your stash last in the apocalyse" kind of threads:r
Here's to 2011 being a better financial year for everbody:tu

since I'm a newbie, I'm still in "acquire" mode...I've gone from having 2-5 sticks on hand as an average, to having 25-30...I'm pushing the edge of my single humi's storage and I'm looking hard and fast at a 150-200 count box...'cause I'm hooked on this trading and bombing biz and want to have a good pool to pick and choose from!

Go bigger. It will save you money in the long run as this place has a tendency to shove guys down the slope and we often end up with much larger collections than what was first intended.

I can see a lot more white in my cooler. With a combination of the recent events at airports and the economy, I will be seeing more and more white in it. The plus side is that it is a very large cooler, and the vino is partially full, as is the desktop. I do not want to try to consolidate them all (and partial boxes becoming full singles boxes), as it will probably be slightly depressing looking at the future. There are enough smokes for a good while, however, as my goatlike palate can handle all but the worst cardboardy tent pegs. ;)

Mine is always full because I commit to buying a cigar of equal or greater value than the one I will smoke. Over time you get pretty stocked up on super premiums. I don't smoke a lot.

Bill86
01-08-2011, 01:04 PM
I have enough cigars for the entire year smoking 1 a day and then some. My coolidor is probably half full, so I got plenty of space to buy more. Of course due to the winter I don't get in one a day for a few months out of the year. But then and again I got more on the way, always.

Brad
01-08-2011, 01:46 PM
My cooler is looking pretty empty. That is thanks to the wonderful work of customs agents, and the fact that most of the NC's I like are rather expensive and too expensive for me to stock up on multiple boxes.

I used to smoke 2 cigars a day, now I'm down to 1. It's 17 degrees here right now. :(

Mine must be low because I keep buying cigars. Humidors are full but I keep seeing some tasty deals and and that is all she wrote.

01-08-2011, 02:37 PM
I'm still a newbie so I only have a 150 count humi but because of the cold winter months I have been able to keep it fully stocked. Actually that damn CBid is making it overflow. Hopefully once things warm up a bit I will be able to enjoy more cigars and I'm sure I'll need to start looking at coolers by then.

I usually smoke my cache down in the spring, summer and fall,
then restock during the fall and winter.

I'm next to full up, now. Only room for something too good to
pass up, but less than a box.

Don't smoke much in winter, anyway.

I endured a nerve racking round of box tetris this morning, to keep from having to get a cooler. I've already promised myself...NO COOLERS! I couldn't stand to see all that empty space. And I can't justify ongoing antics like the last couple of years... :rolleyes:

Knowing that I'm only 4 months away from my cabinet, I could smoke 12 a days and still not run out.

Problem is,right now, if I'm lucky...I smoke one in a week.

;s

Smoked two sticks with my buddy last night....last stick I smoked before that was Christmas...

I hadn't bought some sticks in about 11 months until lately so I'm in restock mode. My vino is full and sadly I had to bust out the cooler to house about 30 sticks so I have plenty of room.

I figured if I ever get low,I'd go grab a good chunk of money and knock on revs door and ask what he's doing with that pile of good sticks he says his pallet won't smoke.Other than that i have 2 coolidors almost to top since I'm re-seasoning my 100 count humidor, then that will free up 4-5 boxes less in the coolidors.

I just bought alot of sticks but before that I was down to 2 cigars and about 5 CC cigarillos and 10 NC cigarillos. I then bought a 5 pack from Cigar Monster and then discovered Cigar Bid and it has all been down hill since then for my bank account lol. I get the package Wednesday but probably won't smoke for another couple of weeks because of the weather. It also gives them some time to rehydrate after shipping.

My buying habits stay fairly constant.....but my smoking habits change drastically for the worse in the Winter.... So the number of sticks I have always goes up in the Winter.

I say that like I am some type of oldtimer... This is my second Winter as a "cigar smoker.":r

I really need to place an order. My everyday sticks are almost non-existant now. Only have an Opus RDC, a few S&B, and some CC's that are sleeping. And a couple padrons that I can smoke now. Ugh, CI, here I come. I would order some tampa sweetheart 500 maddies, but I do not purchase consumables with credit cards.

01-10-2011, 02:05 PM
Yes. I have never posted about it, nor revealed it to any BOTL before. I figured it would come off as some lame attempt at getting people to bomb you. Truth is other things have become a bigger priority. Life, kids, etc. I'd rather not have cigars than come off as "that guy" who's pandering for generosity. I have notta. Smoked my last one a couple nights ago. That said, don't worry about me. I've saved up a little cash from Chistmas and I'm going to place an order.

Do you guys wash your new coolers when you get them? I bought one to convert to a coolidor but I have not washed it yet but was told to do so by some guys. It is 20 degrees out and it won't fit in the shower I don't think so I don't know if I can wash it, is it okay to not wash it?

I sprinkled baking powder in mine, then scrubbed it with a sponge and water. Dump it into the tub, wait to dry, and wipe with a damp towel (dampness to pick up anyleftover baking powder). Then it was good to go.
