How do you buy your smokes?

I used to buy a lot of 5'ers but they go annoying to keep track of. Now I only buy boxes so that I get the date codes as wella s atidy box to hold them, and if I like them I know what I want more of. If I don't like them I let them rest for a long time then retry.
Buying boxes also keeps the buying ahead of the smoking, which makes for aged smokes, so it's win-win.
I'm building 2- 30"x16"deep wide singles shelves for the walk-in as we speak to hold all my stupid singles and 5'ers. Boxes rule.
