I need a humidor because I’m currently using a couple of plastic food containers and if I bought a proper humi, I wouldn’t have the scratch to buy any sticks to put in it. (sniff)
Ha! Nice one.
I have the money to buy a humidor of this size. But why buy one when I can get it for free. That seems to be the tone in the USA as of late. Throw in some cigars and a hygrometer while your at it.
I talk to a lot of cigar smokers in a given week so I could be a fantastic word of mouth for your venture.
A vote for honesty (and humor) goes out to Thomas!
I need a new humidor because the 15 count one I have is full and I don’t want to smoke them because my it would look empty. Having another humidor would make me want to buy more cigars!!! Woohoo!!!
I could use a humidor, as my current plastic shoebox really isn’t all that suitable for cigar storage. The humidity spikes and drops at different times of day and is inconsistent in keep stogies fresh. Some are dry while others are too moist to smoke and are damp….. Also my three year old would probably like his crayon box back…..
Posted on twitter, but I’ll repost here. I have a serious problem… it is an addiction to “Deal of the Day” sites. I have found myself surrounded by 5- and 10-packs. Sure, I give them away to BOTLs, and I smoke as many as I can. But without proper storage, I’ve resorted to just keeping them laying around. And no one wants to see that.
I just had a new baby and my friends at toastedfoot.com sent me some cigars…they filled my current storage and I need more room for more cigars!
I have a standing 25 count humidor but have 50+ cigars in old cigar box so a new one would be great.
I need a new humidor because right now I am using old cigar boxes and humi-paks for humidification.Yeah it works but come on! Nothing beats a good humidor, and what is better than winning a sweet humidor like this one. Win or lose,thanks for the great contest guys!!!
Need to replace my “Ziploc” brand humi in order to display my adherence to the principles of Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness. Life, you ask? It’s mine, to spend as I see fit within the parameters of my values and my G-d. Liberty? Freedom to choose within the bounds of natural and civic law. Pursuit of Happiness? Just open the humi…
I need a new humidor because my fiance says the current one doesn’t match my decor and one day she is gonna throw it out! =D
I need a new humidor because the one I have is full and there are too many more cigars to buy. So many cigars, so little room to store them.
My son gave me a 100 ct. humidor for Christmas, re-introducing me to the enjoyment of cigars. My joy and fascination of cigars today has caused my humidor to reach the “explosion” stage. I NEED ANOTHER HUMIDOR!!! I am addicted to collecting cigars to share with my son and friends alike. I have yet to even scratch the surface of my cigar collection. CHOOSE ME PLEASE!!
Thanks, Mark
I am graduating in May and instead of buying myself a humidor to celebrate, I could then buy a nice box of stogies to fill that one.
I deserve and need a new humidor because of all the great “cigar” folk I know now because of twitter!!! It is impossible to take advantage of every great cigar deal without adequate space! Thanks! Patrick…
I don’t so much need a new humidor as much as I need that feeling of having won it. I want to conquer! Although when I do by more cigars and
my wife asks, “do you really need more cigars?” I can say, “YES! the humi is empty.”
Good idea for a contest!
I need a humidor because i just started smoking cigars about a year ago and all have is a 5 stick travel humidor. so it would be nice to be able to buy a box of cigars instead of having to order a 5 stick sampler every week.thank you for the great contest.
I need a new humidor because I have terrible luck with them. Every humidor I have bought has had a bad seal. The humidor with the best seal that I have is the 2009 cigarfest humi but that’s far from enough room for all my smokes so a buddy and me built a coolerdor. It works beautifully but it’s not exactly beautiful it’s self and it’s a hassle to keep have his cigars and mine in only one cooler which has to stay at one of our houses at a time.
Also I am about to move into a new place in an ancient and beautiful house. The cooler is going to look really out of place in the den among all the hardwood.
My son just got into cigars…He needs his own so he keeps his grubby little hands out of mine.
It would be great if I won this Humidor; I would then be able to give my current one to my friend in Kansas–who uses baggies to keep the cigars I give him. He is a college student and can’t afford a humidor or cigars….so I am his supplier–
I need a new humidor for my wife. She has been so wonderful with my cigar hobby and supports me 100%. I want to share with her and bought her first box of cigars for her (Tabak Especial). Since she likes sweet or infused cigars I would really like to get a humidor that she can call her own. This would make her very happy.
I don’t need another humidor, I just want to win
Maybe ’cause i’m one greedy bastid, and i need more than the 400 count capacity i currently have.
Then again a nice new humidor would be special.
This prize could possibly be my first humidor…!
My humidor is from Thompson and is a piece of crap that will not keep my smokes no matter what I do. Please ruined dryout cigars is a crime and i don’t want to go to jail.
My Dear Friends at Toasted Foot Cigar Reviews, Stephen:
Many years ago, I became attracted to cigars and the mystique surrounding them. I took up the flame, so to speak and began a thirty-year journey that has yet to end. However, my love for cigars has always been incomplete because I have paid too much attention to cigars and not the ageing or storage of them.
It is a real depressing thought to think that I could have stored cigars twenty years ago and enjoyed them now.
I had a humidor years ago but gave it to my Brother Mike so as to start his cigar hobby.
My cigars in storage have been with my local B & M store. Now I would love to take up the responsibility of storing them myself. With the gift you are offering I could do just that and complete the circle of cigar smoking.
I would love very much to win your prize and let my friends and family know that I am a complete cigar enthusiast now with the gift of your humidor.
Thanks so much for your website and your information you afford to us cigar smokers.
Sincerely,
Tom Towey

I have a 20 count that is always full and most everything ends up in baggies for a couple of weeks. The bad thing is that nothing ever gets any age on them. I also will need one to put the cigars I win here in it. Another note is that my wife will not have to tell me not to buy anymore because I do not have anywhere to put them, I can then say I need to get more because it needs to be full to work right.
My friend, Lieutenant Brando (I changed his name for security, but I think he’d be impressed with the new alias), is a Army Inteligence officer in the National Guard. He’s always been one of those guys who’s got your back; a brother in the most meaningful sense that the word can have. He’s been there to support me through my training as a signal officer and I’d like to believe that my support of him warrants him holding me in the high regard I hold him in. Jimmy recently began smoking cigars after having a few with me on nights when we had a few beers. He bought some sampler packs and a box of CAO La traviatas after me suggesting he do so. He recently found out that he is getting deployed to Afghanistan in January immediately following his training at ft. Huachuca. He gave me the 30 or so cigars that he had and told me to smoke them. What I’d like to do is have them waiting for him when he gets back as a surprise. However, currently I don’t have the space to properly store them. The gift of a humidor would be a great solution to my problem.
My grandmother needs it so she’ll quit getting into mine and stealing my smokes!
Please help her!
No point in trying to lie.. once I started filling the family Coleman cooler with cigars, the wife said enough is enough. I was forbidden to buy anymore cigar “junk”. But if I was to get a free one, she couldn’t complain!
I’d love to win that humidor, because rotating my hygrometer between my two cheap smaller humidors and my overflow Ziploc bag has become a nightly ritual. A cigar isn’t a pleasure if I’ve invested weeks of checking on it daily.
As a cigar smoker for many years and with two humidors in my den, so oldest son has taken a fondness to cigars. I won’t let him smoke one of my premium cigars unil he turns 21. Well..September 3 is his 21st birthday. My plan is to buy him a box of CAOs or Rocky Patels, and a new humidor from you would make his day.
I need a new humidor because I got into this hobby about 2 months ago and bought a typical desktop 25-count humidor, thinking and believing that that’d be more cigars than I’d be able to smoke in a year. Needless to say, I’ve been trying a variety of cigars purchased both from my local tobacco store as well as from various online deal sites. I’m currently in a situation where I have crammed 35 cigars into my 25-count humidor and I’ve got more cigars on the way. I’ve been reading up on how to build a tupperdor in the meantime while I try to figure out what my next humidor purchase should be. A new 50-count humidor would be an absolute lifesaver!
Thanks to everyone for entering our contest! We have a winner! Tadd Daniels, who wrote:
