He means that for about $50 (US or Canadian) you can buy a huge Igloo cooler or likewise and use it as a humidor. It seals better than the best humidor, though it does not look as good on your desk.

You can either buy credo-type humidifier devices for a few bucks each, or go to a local florist and buy a big block of Oasis foam and make your own from plastic butter tubs or whatever. You can buy cedar from a wood supply firm to line the cooler, or you can scrap old boxes and scavage that wood, or you can just leave your cigars in their boxes inside the cooler. There's lots of ways to save money, if appearance is not vital to you. I know - I was born poor, and shall die so - hopefully soon.

BTW, if you get a cooler with wheels, it makes it easier to take to herfs - plus, you always have someplace to sit.
