    On the other hand, most of the low to mid grade line humidors for sale, are not made of solid Spanish cedar. They are usually some sort of MSD or pressboard (I think) and they are veneered with some decorative wood on the outside (aesthetics) and Spanish cedar veneer on the inside (aromatic.) They're not double layered.

    You still have to use a humidification device to keep the box relatively moist. Don't forget to setup your humidor by seasoning it.

    All this said, and tying together your quest for low cost cigar storage, again, go with a tupperdore / coolerdor, especially since time seems to be of the essence for you. Get some humidity beads and a digital hydrometer.

    I've bolded some SEARCH terms for you.

    Merry Christmas,
