newbie needs advice - Page 2

I started with a 150ct and filled it up in about a year.
I overflowed into tupperware and filled that in a few
more months. Then I bought a box and got a free
40ct with it. That became my 'dry box'. Now that's
full, too, in only 2-3 yrs. I tend to buy in the winter
and smoke down my stash in the spring-fall.

I just bought a Vinotemp 28 bottle unit, and hopefully
it will last 10 yrs. But it's already 1/2 full of boxes
because I'm stocking up b4 the SCHIP tax hits.

I'd say that you have a nice starter set there, but be
prepared to get more storage in the next 1-2 yrs.
Keep your eyes open for coolers on sale at Walmart,
or, if you have the coin, watch/plan for an Avallo,
Aristocrat or a Vinotemp.

a simple cooler is also another option to consider....a 45 qt cooler can hold a sh*t ton of cigars and for about $20-30 bucks u can't go wrong. throw some beads in that bad boy and a fan and u're set!!
