I know Rickmaven has his sweaterdor. Do a search for that or a coolerdor. You can find the details on CI 101.

I have large tuperware containers that are lined with spanish cedar(1/4 inch), and use that foam from the flower shop as my humidifier.

Also, you can ship the cigars to me and I'll take real good care of them!

But the veterans of these boards will have better ideas.

You can always send some here.

I am here at Camp Dogwood just south of Bahgdad Int. AP. We are trying to beat the heat and keep our head down, watch our six and herf all at the same time!

Glad to hear the program is still viable. My shipping addy here is:

CW3 Ken Sayar
D Co. 123rd MSB
Unit 92882
APO, AE 98324-2882

I appreciate the effort with the Gars for Troops. I have met several Brothers of the Leaf while out here.

Here in FL not enough humidity is not a big factor but the temp is. I have a few tupadors that I just have some of the floral sponge stuff in with a little 50/50 but they are kept in the coldest part of the house.

Tupperdor seems a better solution for your temporary situation since it's the cheapest. You don't need Spanish Cedar since you have boxes. Also, since you have boxes you can just put a cup of water in the rig. Even if it's too humid in there the boxes shouldn't absorb too much water in 30 days. In fact, it's likely your boxes are being sent a little wet. If you leave the wrappers on, they will probably be fine for a month.

Anyone else with a comment.

Clarification,

This is referring to not using any kind of humidor for 30 days.

Try asking CBid

stever (ta) cbid (moc)
keithm (ta) cigarbid (moc)
