Cigar boxes usually don't seal well enough for long term storage.

I completely disagree with Step 4. If you're using beads, all you need is a cheap hygro because it will never move unless the beads dry out. No need to spend crazy money on something you don't need.

I am going to be setting my cooler up, cleaning out tomorrow. I was just asking about the boxes because I have seen people use them and not use them. I really don't want to buy them for nothing. I have sticks sitting in my box that was usps'd to me... My humi is over flowing!

I agree. Who wrote that, anyways?

I've found they work for a weekend getaway, though. They hold up a tad longer for me if I stick a bead puck in there.

Well, I wouldn't advocate using only a cigar box as a humidor. I would, however, advocate using cigar boxes in your coolerdor. Especially if you had a huge cooler you were using, you wouldn't want loose cigars everywhere - that would be an organizational nightmare. Maybe just get a few cigar boxes to keep things organized.
