If I keep bombing people, my stash is gonna get low. But I got a loooong way to go before that happens. BTW, if anyone says yes in this thread, they are just asking for a beat down.

Mine keeps increasing, but I do find myself trying to find cheaper sticks to smoke. I don't want to smoke a $10 stick every time.

Default Re: Is your Humidor count getting low?

I have enough smokes to last me until about March, then I'm in danger of running out completely. That's almost a year from when I last made a box purchase, so I guess I know the answer to those "how long would your stash last in the apocalyse" kind of threads
Here's to 2011 being a better financial year for everbody

since I'm a newbie, I'm still in "acquire" mode...I've gone from having 2-5 sticks on hand as an average, to having 25-30...I'm pushing the edge of my single humi's storage and I'm looking hard and fast at a 150-200 count box...'cause I'm hooked on this trading and bombing biz and want to have a good pool to pick and choose from!

Go bigger. It will save you money in the long run as this place has a tendency to shove guys down the slope and we often end up with much larger collections than what was first intended.

Default Re: Is your Humidor count getting low?

I can see a lot more white in my cooler. With a combination of the recent events at airports and the economy, I will be seeing more and more white in it. The plus side is that it is a very large cooler, and the vino is partially full, as is the desktop. I do not want to try to consolidate them all (and partial boxes becoming full singles boxes), as it will probably be slightly depressing looking at the future. There are enough smokes for a good while, however, as my goatlike palate can handle all but the worst cardboardy tent pegs.

Mine is always full because I commit to buying a cigar of equal or greater value than the one I will smoke. Over time you get pretty stocked up on super premiums. I don't smoke a lot.

Default Re: Is your Humidor count getting low?

I have enough cigars for the entire year smoking 1 a day and then some. My coolidor is probably half full, so I got plenty of space to buy more. Of course due to the winter I don't get in one a day for a few months out of the year. But then and again I got more on the way, always.

My cooler is looking pretty empty. That is thanks to the wonderful work of customs agents, and the fact that most of the NC's I like are rather expensive and too expensive for me to stock up on multiple boxes.

I used to smoke 2 cigars a day, now I'm down to 1. It's 17 degrees here right now.
