So my thought is that economizing here is false economy, because of the cost of the cigars.
I like these:

Combined with some beads.
The beads are useful if you live in an area with fluctuating ambient RH - like where I am - where indoors it got to 65% yesterday. Come Novemcer it will be 35%.
Peace of mind is priceless.
