Organization?

Lee.mcglynn

Well this has been happening a lot recently...I go into a cooler for a certain stick and I can't find the dang thing for about 30min of going through stuff. I've figured I do need a better idea of where things are! Anyone have any thoughts that might help? How do you find your stuff?

I have a system where (hypothetically), all cc boxes are in my cabinet humi. all nc boxes are in my cooler. 300 count humi is singles (ie smoking stash) and 150 count humi is singles (ie smoking stash). If multiple humi's are not your thing or a bit too pricey, you can even put your singles in tupperwares. even zip loc bags.

i kinda have a system like that but my randome singles are the ones driving me insane! Stuff like opus,padrons and viaje I have no trouble finding it's always that one dang stick you say I want that today and can't find it forever

When I had my "20 count" I had plastic baskets I picked up for 99 cents a piece to use. They would hold about 40 cigars "from what I heard" and I organized it by macra. I'm sure there are pictures somewhere on the forum. I have some that I ain't using so for the cost of shipping they are all yours if you want them; I think I have 4 to 6 of them.

todd!! Nice to see you around these parts!! Thank you for the offer but I'm ok... I use old boxes but from random bombs and trades the singles kill me! But yeah I've seen that 20ct somewhere on here

ummm.....yeah, i don't have that issue yet, but I organize my 200ct by brand and then price. So all my MOW are in the 3rd drawer in the 200, but my padrons, anejo, and any other high priced stick are in the top drawer.

Generally the amount of time I have is a major factor in what cigar I choose, so I have mine organized by vitola. That is after I have them split into sticks with cello or without.

I have my small cigars in one drawer, my havnt tried but want to sometime in one, my familiars in one and then top shelf stuff in the top drawer, boxes top and bottom shelves

Maybe its just me, and maybe (probably) I just don't really know whats what as well as most of ya'll. I just plain put the longer sticks on the bottom, short stubbys up top. Any w/o cello go on the top shelf.

Man I wish I could be OCD about it but it never lasts

Gifts trades and then purchased. If I bought them they go to the purchased area.

In the cooler, I keep some boxes on the bottom and then have singles in those 5 finger bags with the ziploc part cut off to allow for air flow. This is nice since it protects cigars (especially those without cello) and allows for some organization of similar cigars in each bag. It also makes it easy to see what is in each bag and I can flip through them rather quickly. It's not a perfect system, but I hated digging through boxes looking for cigars.

I'm a "touch" OCD with impulse control issues so I come up with a "brilliant" organizational system about once a week. Right now it is by wrapper and size for most of my modest stock except for a dozen or so sticks that I am saving for something...come to think of it there is no order to that section...be right back...
