i keep my smokes in the cedar boxes and toss pieces of cedar in the coolerador. maybe we have a resident chemist out there who can answer the adhesive question. personally, i don't trust any man made adhesive around my cigars.

I do this too and to avoid having to play Cigar Box Tetris, use the same boxes once I figure out a good layout. As such, over the years, many boxes don’t contain any of the original cigars so hafta tape a list of what’s in each box so that I don’t hafta keep opening them up while looking for a particular smoke.

Excel is your friend. Better organization options…………waaaaay less work.
It’s kind of like walking into a restaurant.

When I go to a restaurant, I dont typically walk around in the kitchen and walkin coolers to see what they have……….I look at the menu.
My cigar setup is similar. I just look at my “menu”, and decide what I want to smoke.
Upside is my “cigar menu” tells me exactly where the cigar is, when I bought it and how much I paid.
Cigar is quickly found, no rummaging with cooler open, shoving cigars around, etc

Do it the way God and nature intended. I throw new stuff in wherever there is room without keeping any real track of what is where. Then, when I want something, I rummage through multiple coolers and tuperdores and boxes getting frustrated because I can't find that PERFECT cigar that I want to smoke. After I look through everything with no success, I start over, then usually find it. Only takes 20 or 30 minutes, but then I can't get all the boxes to go back in to the cooler the way they were, so add another 10 minutes of frustration.

I've got an Apache spreadsheet with a spot for location, but I can't seem to keep up with where they are. I like Palama's idea of a list on the boxes.
