RE#3,
Go to WallyWorld. Buy a 120quart cooler.
Buy some humidification, such as 65% beads, or in a pinch get a block of wet type floral foam and a piece of tupperware to put it in. And you have a coolerdor. Just add boxes of cigars. Your done. If you need boxes, most B&Ms will give empties away, or sell them for a couple of bucks.
