Default keeping track of your collection.

Is there any software that any of you are using to keep track of your collection... or maybe just an Excel Spreadsheet??

Just an excel spreadsheet for me... I used to keep track of single and boxes.... but now its just boxes and only CCs. Basically I use it to track boxes for aging and to keep a list of what I don't have and want/need!

Check out the software by one of our members, KenS, if you have an iphone or itouch.

I had a computer software before (can't remember what it was) but found it a pain to keep the inventory up to date. Nice idea but gets old quick when you have to update the count every time you smoke/give away a stick.

I keep a spreadsheet. But it does become a chore to keep up with every purchase.

There's a program called Cigar Briefcase that does that, although I've never tried it. So far for me it's been paper and pencil.

I used to use an excel spreadsheet. But I'm in and out of the humidors and tupperdors a few times a day, so it became a little too tedious for me. I generally have a good idea of what I have. That's good enough for me. Every now and then I dig something awesome up that I forgot about and it's like christmas!

as i am not a big fan of reinventing the wheel when someone else has already done it better, if anyone wants to send me a copy of an excel spreadsheet program i would appreciate it....pm me, it can either be blank or filled in and i can erase...

thanks
