Geez! I think I've now won more cigars than will fit in the humidor I also won, which won't even be here until tomorrow. I'm helplessly addicted!

I just finished a box of the Montague #1 Maduros..They're pretty good cigars actually but the first 1/2 an inch is pretty bland..After that, the flavors of almonds and cocoa kick in and they become a very pleasant inexpensive cigar IMHO...Good to smoke at work or for the drive to/from

Only problem with smoking these during my commute is that they last over an hour... My drive time is only 45 minutes.

I've increased my storage capacity by 225% since I found this site 3 months ago. Coincidence? I don't think so. So many good deals and so many brands to try..... But this is it! NO MORE UNTIL I AT LEAST OPEN ALL OF THE BOXES! Well, unless I see something really good.

OK, you got me. I am looking for one of those table chest humidors. I am once again over capacity. I thought I was keeping some dog rocket cigars and could get rid of them to make some room but I saw Rickamavin's list of recent "good buys" and know dambn well that the ones I was going to get rid of are much better then those were. So i kept them.

Told the wife if I get one of those I can get rid of several of the smaller ones. She said that something had better leave the house. Some humidors or ???? Hhhmmm kind of glad she got interrupted at that point....69

Humidors multiply like rabbits! Started with the desktop holds - 40. Then purchased the one for home holds - 300. Of course three more humi's came as deals with cigars they hold another 200. THEN I converted an end table into a humidor which can hold 15 boxes. All are full and I'm still bidding on lots.

Clark,
Sounds like you need to host a little herf to help with your overstocking problem, he,he,he.

Collecting humidors is fun and easy. The hard part is finding places to put them all that does them justice and allows easy access.

That's a symptom of Havanamultiplicosis. It's a disease which spreads from the first cigar in your new humidor.

One day there's a few. And even after steady smoking, there's always more.

Your bank account mysteriously drains, you family leaves, your mind thinks of nothing but cigars.

The cure is to send 3 cigars to everyone on the forum. I guarantee you will no longer suffer from this dangerous affliction.

Laughing at Huskey's advice concerning the short commute problem: "slow down"!

You, my friend, have a classic case of ODO (Order Disorder). Identified by a slight odor of burning plastic. No known cure. Welcome to the colony.

Ugh...Just bought my 4th Humi. A smaller 50 count to hold my most cherrished smokes. Think the wife will survive the 300 count table top? I must have at least 1 bid going each day.

DAMM CIGARBID!!
OK, here is the Problem. I agreed with my wife a year ago to "stop smoking cigars" because she quit smoking cigarettes. With this agreement in place that I "won't smoke anymore cigars" I feel I can continue to keep my humidor (holds 50) stocked with Cigarbid gems and continue smoking cigars "under the radar" with no action taken. Here lies the problem. I just won a 20 piece order which fills my humidor to the rim and I keep on seeing more cigars on Cigarbid that "I must have”.
Do I; A) Stop looking at Cigarbid each day/hour and let the deals go by until I smoke some of my "bounty"?
B) Attempt to re-negotiate the stop smoking cigars "threshold" C) Start storing offsite i.e. friends, office , trunk of my car. D) Get divorced and buy as many Lone Wolf/ Hamilton House/Dog Rockets cigars from Cigarbid I can get with the money left over paying child support. Any thoughts - This should be good.

Without knowing more about your wife, it's impossible to fully advise you on that question ... but, in general, if you married her in the first place and have produced children, it seems to me there's at least some hint that she's a keeper ...

That means below the radar purchases and offsite storage, IMNSHO

She must already know that you're a liar and a sneak. Surprise her and tell her the truth. That'll set her back.

Buy her a carton for XMAS, if you want her to have black lung.

Cigars, versus, cigarettes??????????? no comparison.

Maybe make a deal. Each of you allowed one for one, for every cigar you smoke, she has one cigarette, you both win.
