    Default Piles of Bands

    http://www.cigarsmokers.com/threads/...ent#post128076

    Jamie's post got me to thinking about this again.

    I was sorting out Solita Perfecto box that I keep cigar bands in and noticed some trends such as:

    Large piles include:
    Padron
    5 Vegas
    Assorted AF
    RyJ Habana Reserve
    Camacho
    Torano
    Indian Tabac
    CAO
    LFD
    Oliva

    Sadly (for me) my Gurkha pile is larger than my VSG pile, El Titan pile, & ISOM pile combined (it looks like)

    Some oddballs include:
    Pirates Gold, Belinda, Vibe, Flor de Gonzalez, Cubita, a couple Don Kikis, La Reserva Private Stock Tinderbox & Leoninos.

    I don't even want to think how long it would take me to sort through all my bands. I kept just about every single one since I started really smoking cigars. I have two medium Tupperware containers, 2 cigar boxes, and a chest that a bottle of wine came in. All are crammed full of bands. If I had to guess, I would say I have a ton of everything and a bunch of stuff I tried.
    Yay! Cigars!

    I have about 50 or so now but I used up a lot decorating my travel humidor too!

    I have thousands of them. I keep them for people who want them. I already promised them to a member here, I just have to get them packed up and send them to him.

    I keep all of mine glued in my Cigar Journal. If it's a brand I smoke a lot then I don't usually keep the band.

    I keep all of my bands and my friends as well I also have some sent to me by members here so I really would have no way of know which ones are mine. I think it's a really interesting idea though.

    Hey, I'll just add those to 'To Try" list.
    Every time I get into my local shops with something in mind, they don't have it and I don't have a back-up plan. So, I'm creating a back-up plan.

    Ugh, I haven't eaten all day. And thanks to reading the words "Pirate's Gold", it doesn't look like I'll be able to.

    I usually just keep one of each band, but that cigar journal idea sonds pretty cool
    Out of all the interwebs and www's, I can say that this is my favorite smoke shop
