The Humidor bag

Or of course you could go for the coolerdor option

Another thing about these humi-bags. They are really intended to take a few cigars with you when you're traveling for a few days. They only have so much moisture in them and can't be rejuvenated. Personally I'd never keep them for more than a couple of weeks, and that's using them sparingly. If you are using them as an everyday humidor and constantly opening and closing them and putting dry cigars in them, the cigars will absorb the available moisture and the bags will dry up pretty quickly.

during school I couldn't keep up with my humi's so my sticks ran real dry for a long time. I got sick of trying to fix the humis so I am looking into the coolidor option and I have put all of my cigars into two big humi bags. they have been there about a month and the cigars have been rejuvinated pretty well and the bags sit stable at a 70% RH. so they work pretty good for at least a month. I'll see how it pans out tho.

I'd strongly recommend one of the hard plastic cases like X-treme or whatever; they're all the same. A little distilled water on the foam (or occasionally some 50:50)and the humidity holds at around 65 for a couple of weeks. Very low maintenance. The 5 cigar case is pretty cheap. Or, get the 20 (still cheap compared to a humi)and take out the foam dividers. I put a few scrap sheets of cedar in mine to fool the sticks into thinking they're in a real humi.

the bag idea is great especially if you need to quikly humidify your cigars however this is not a great idea for a long term thing especially if you are into cigars you will need a humidor so you might as well get one now you can buy them for as cheap as 20 bucks it depends on the size you want. but i wouldnt stick with your humibag
