What do you all do with the bands of the cigars you smoke?
I want to save mine but i dont know what to do with them

i'm saving mine so i can remember what i have smoked. They are like a review rating system for me. good ones in this pile, bad ones in this pile. After i have tried many different types and know which ones i will get, i will probably make a picture out of them or something, post the ones that are the best and most expensive on the wall. I heard someone on this forum was putting his onto his bar top. just do what u want to do with them.

I bought a leather binded journal from Wal mart for $10 and just glue my bands in there, along with a description if I want

I have a big container that I throw them all in. I also keep a small journal and paste each type at the top of the page to show the band off and then it is followed by a short review. The rest are in a big covered container just sitting there.

I keep them in a box, thinking about doing somthing with them. The book is a good idea.

I got cheapie Composition notebook (one of those black marbley ones from middle school). I tape them in there and write a couple lines about what I think. I'm not discerning enough to grade cigars, so most of my notes are like "very strong flavor"

I also have a few strays on the bar, in the car, and on my smoking porch as a tribute to my disorganization.

The first time I smoke a cigar, i save the band and put it into my cigar journal so I can record what I thought of it. If later on, it becomes one of my favorites, I put it on the cover of my journal. Other than that I enjoy burning them (I love FIRE!!)
