....searching "CA Newsletter" produces 11 pages of threads dating back to 2008. As another new member, I'd appreciate if you could narrow it down, just a bit...I'd like to subscribe, too.....

When you ask for stickers or a newsletter or show pictures of your empty humidor you are asking to be bombed. These guys are just yanking your chain...

If you really want a newsletter -- go for it....

Unless it's because you haven't been smoking them

Yes the "newsletter" is kind of a tradition on here, I went through the same confusion you are now going through. Just paying it forward.

OK, I get it....let the hazing commence....

I don't want stickers and my Staebell is wall to wall full....so while bombs are a nice thought, I sure don't need them. In fact, as a Marine dad, I ask folks to send them to the troops instead of me.

Party on, gentlemen.....N.F.H.

I would not go so far as to call it a tradition. It's hardly been around that long...

It does serve a purpose though -- all banter aside I think many newbies feel more a part of CA after they receive their newsletter...

Fair enough.

I am going to look at coolers this weekend, I had been delaying the process simply because I thought they were more expensive.

Well picked up my cooler its a 48 qt igloo marine cooler. It seemed to seal okay in the store I hope it hold humidity well.

And I picked up a cheap Wal-Mart hygrometer for 7$ figure it would be okay for a little while. And I'm testing its accuracy now.

Next up is the beads and then buying cigars to fill it.
