Buy 'em on Amazon.

Amazon. :) 18 of them for $9! Link: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B071RNBVQR/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Holy shit de mensen in de OP die denken dat dit echt is. Je kan ze gewoon kopen bij amazon https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07PFPYSSF/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_raA6CbNGK27HT

Mi sa tanto che (o meglio, non posso che sperare che) sia uno di quei cartelloni "buffi e scherzosi" che uno appende per fare il simpaticone in ufficio.

La veste grafica pare quella.

EDIT: Giustappunto... Eccolo qua.

A few bovida packs to control the humidity:
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B077KVC1VY/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_3R24CbMC6041A

And any airtight tupperware container. Even one from the kitchen will do the trick. I like these:
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00284AG5U/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_tFGGBbEKPFVT7

For long term storage you may want a hygrometer to monitor the humidity:
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00JXOKQVW/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_lIGGBbM73ZESW

And if you want to get fancy and organize with cedar trays, two of these work perfectly stacked in the container above.

Then store it in a cool part of your house.

Reading comprehension ? The sick days and personal days are obviously a joke .
Also did a quick google , you can buy this on amazon as a ‘funny sign ‘

Everyone's giving you advice about shrugging it off and going the tuppedor route, but I think the thing you're missing here is that you bought this thing and if it happened in transit then you should call them about getting a new one or at least a refund. I have this one and while its certainly nothing amazing, it's a humidor and its working just fine. I struggled with the rh at first because I simply didn't understand it but now it's fine and looks pretty classy....the only downside is that I discovered cbid, so now I have like 50 sticks coming in...for my "50"-count humidor....which is already filled with about 30.

First world problems...amirite?

I've got one of these and love it. Have to give the lid a wipe down every now and then but otherwise it's great

https://www.amazon.com/Totally-Natural-Container-Magnetic-Organization/dp/B003PBHGHG

$1500 from an artist who has an Answers in Genesis link on his page. AIG... well, that sucks.

Alternatively, you can get the T-Rex head wall mount for $70 + shipping. It's not the highest quality, but that's to be expected. Got one as a gift and he loved it.

It is certainly fake

It's yours for $30

I used this guy which worked soooooo much better than using the "dip a string in lighter fluid" method.

I broke the project into 4 steps:

1. Use the Kinkajou device to score a line on the bottles.
   
2. Use cut grocery bags and painters tap to cover the labels (we found out the hard way that the water part ruins labels very quickly)
   
3. Do the actual cutting (AKA pour boiling water over the score line, then dip the bottle in a pitcher of ice water, repeat until it snaps at the score line)
   
4. Sand with 80, 100, and 150 grit sand paper.
   
   This was my end-result process. I tried a few different ways, but this was the most efficient. I started with about 50 bottles, and ended up with about 25, so I had about a 50% success rate, which I call a win! :D

• XCSource Arcade Buttons
  
  The arcade buttons came with all the relevant wiring and the usb cable.
  
  
• Bamboo Tea Box
  
  I got a coupon that I used on the tea box, which is why it was less than $30 total for me, but it still ain't an expensive box. I also drilled all the button holes into the bottom of the box, because the bottom is made of particle board and much less prone to splintering when cut/drilled.
  
  
• Sticker Paper
  
  (I already had this from making my trash stick). The printed design is one I saw on Pinterest--not my own. It's really meant for a marquee but I adapted the sizing of the image for this. I might suggest others use a paper with a glossy finish, or design their sticker on redbubble for a higher quality finish. That would probably be more convenient, since the box is longer than a standard piece of printer paper so I had to add more sticker to the ends (that's the brown borders along the right and left side). You could also just not screw up with ugly holes like me and then not do a sticker at all. =P
  
  That's it. =)

Old humidor?

You mean the one you bought off Amazon for $27?

http://www.amazon.com/Quality-Importers-Desktop-Humidor-Capri-Glasstop/dp/B002TOK352/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1449361104&sr=8-1&keywords=Humidor

I only knew because I have the same one ;)

I bought mine from amazon and it has been amazing. I had to make a second divider for it but that's just a preference thing. Here's a link to the one I bought(I think its just the first one that comes up when you search 'humidor'): This is the one

It holds humidity well and only costs $30. I don't know what size you're looking for, but this is a great one

For the sweet tooth (like my dad, these are all things he likes):

• A candy jar or bowl filled with her favorite candy.
  
  
• An artisan ice cream scoop.
  
  
• An ice cream maker. You could get an ice cream recipe book as well.
  
  
• One of my dad's favorite gifts was a sugar dispenser... I think that shows his level of sugar commitment.
  
  
• Some artisan marshmallows.
  
  
• A milk frother that doubles as a hot chocolate maker.
  
  For the executive (like my mom, these are all things she likes):
  
  
• A high quality thermos for coffee on the way to work.
  
  
• A smart home setup, maybe an echo and some smart outlets or the google home. Really good for turning lights on/off, asking for the weather and news, listening to music, etc.
  
  
• A FitBit to help her keep healthy even working long hours.
  
  
• A popcorn maker that allows you to make non-microwaved popcorn in the microwave.
  
  
• A white noise machine. If she has any trouble sleeping this thing is AMAZING.
  
  
• A Roku or Chromecast that makes it easier to watch Netflix on the TV.
  
  
• Wine tasting or cooking class that you can do together. Really my mom loves doing stuff with her family.

I always thought getting something like this and turning them all into drinking glasses would be a cool idea. Havent done it yet though

Now I usually cut with electric tile cutter and sand on DIY flat lap, but for someone looking to only do straight cuts and not make the glasses for sale I'd say go with one of the jigs available and then just do the hot-cold water routine, a candle or a jet butane torch over the score line.

Alternatively, you can also make a jig yourself, it's not that hard and will probably save around $30.

Someone sent me this tuppedor set up:

Humidor + 10 cigars for $30 (This does not seem to be the same humidor, but I ordered one and I'll see just how different they are.) This one is much better quality than the first one!

This is my first humidor, and I was impressed by the quality when it arrived. I would have expected something of this quality to be too rich for my blood.

In following the advice of a reviewer, I'm currently calibrating the hygrometer with salt water in a bag, and I'll charge it up with a shot glass of water tonight!

Edit: And...my hygrometer is broken. It wasn't calibrated correctly, and the needle ceased to move (broke?) when I tried to adjust it. I've contacted the vendor to see if they'll send me a single hygrometer.

Edit2: I'm returning it to Amazon due to the broken hygrometer and buying the $30 + 10 cigars instead. Hopefully I have better luck with that one.

So, full disclosure this (and morning Uber rides to work when it's cold) is my biggest personal struggle, budget wise. That said, there are stretches of weeks/months where I'm damn near perfect with it and I can share those tips :)

So, the biggest thing for me is that I make sure that I've packed a snack to eat at 3pm every day. Even if I'm not hungry and even if I don't want that snack, I eat it. Because when I leave work at 6, I'm not so terribly hungry that even just boiling water for Kraft Mac n' Cheese is too much time/effort and "terribly hungry" is when the cravings get you and next thing you know, you're spending $25 on fancy ramen.

My personal go-to is sliced up red peppers and hummus or tzatziki sauce (which I rarely have at home so it's usually hummus). Protein is key to maintain the feeling of fullness, and the bulk of the vegetable satiates you. But it could be anything: mini Babybel cheeses (this is actually my go-to for breakfast-- some kind of seasonal fruit and cheese), a small charcuterie plate with olives and cured meats... whatever, get creative, don't ignore your calorie/ nutrition goals (this is why peppers and hummus are the best IMO)--just make sure it'll hold up in the fridge from Sunday- Friday and prepare enough to grab and go in the morning or keep in the work fridge and set a daily reminder for mandatory snacktime.

I've also started to make my own hummus, using this recipe1 (but I'm lazy and buy canned chickpeas--I do remove the skins). I can tweak it to my exact specifications and can make a whole lot of the stuff for very little money (compared to the store brands, the major ones of which I've never really loved). I'm not saying you have to do it, but it's something I've come to enjoy and makes me look forward to mandatory snacktime because I'm damn proud of the stuff.

Which goes into a more general tip: learn to cook some basics/ easy go-tos and make them yours and make them your favorite versions of said food (or at least your favorite available). A bit tricky for NYC when there's awesome food everywhere but you can do it.

Make use of that freezer. I have a go-to recipe for Mexican shredded chicken that I'll make pounds of in one go, and then freeze the extras in freezer friendly quart ziplocks (freeze them "thin" so defrosting takes 10 minutes in room temperature water. There are a million different receipes for this concept. Some limey and cilantro-y, some tomatoey and cuminy. Here's a quick and effective way to get an airtight seal and avoid freezer burn. Make a bunch of different types This then can turn into whatever. Stuff a quesadilla, make enchiladas, make some soup, mix in with rice, eat on top of a bed of spinach. Ditto with some sort of spiced ground beef (or turkey).

In addition, if you always have a couple chicken breasts and a pound of ground beef/ turkey in the freezer (take out of original packaging, put in freezer friendly ziplocks, save as thin as possible for space concerns and also ease of defrosting), and even a sort-of stocked pantry, you'll have the ability to "wing it"/ get creative/ bail yourself out in a pinch (my dinner last night: my "emergency lazy food" package of herb and butter Rice a Roni with sliced chicken breast. Not a restaurant replacement but it was fast and I saved myself $20).

Try to always have some basics on hand. Whatever your "basics" wind up being, that will be personal based on your taste and your easy go-tos. For us, it's rice and tortillas (married to a Central American, my favorite food is Mexican, so your mileage may vary, most people seem to gravitate to bread and pasta). We always have a couple different kinds of shredded cheese on hand. Ditto with sour cream-- there's always at least some in the house. We always get a package of spinach, green onions and a lot of limes at the store (and often some extra red peppers) because we've found we use them up every time. We also make sure that the onion, garlic and egg reserves never go down (these items keep for weeks if stored properly). Oh, and canned tomatoes and black beans. Always have a ton of those. I have a lot of homemade chicken stock in the freezer (whenever I make a whole chicken, I put the bones and vegetable scraps in the slow cooker for 12 hours. Boom. Chicken broth), but you could keep canned on hand or "better than bouillon". This helps with soup and also adding flavor to whatever you're cooking. We've got a nice collection of spices and oils and vinegars which helps. Most of this keeps for a long time and can be morphed into anything AND goes well with our standard go-tos.

Once you get your basics to where you like them, you'll start to feel a bit silly going out to get X because it's really just ABC mixed together and you've got A and B in the home and you could pick up C right now for $2 AND yours tastes better. It's also fun and a challenge to learn new things and even more fun to follow a recipe exactly the first time and then make it yours the second. Also, give yourself a bit of leeway. This is "never eat out again" this is "stop paying 10x the price for something I can easily make at home, probably better". You love Indian? Go for it. Top notch sushi? Cool. But you do not need a $20 hamburger. Or Tex-Mex (authentic Mexican food is certainly something worth spending on). Or...whatever.

For inspiration, and bang-up awesome recipes, can't go wrong with America's Test Kitchen. Get a trial subscription or ask for one for the holidays.

Oh, also (sorry, I'm rambling). BUY GOOD SALT. Forget anything iodized. You don't have to break the bank but get some descent fleur de sel. Then don't be afraid to use it. Keep it in something like this, right by where you cook. Go talk to the people at the fancy salt store linked here. They'll back me up on this. Part of why you crave eating out so much is because they season their food properly and there is a 90% chance that you do not (most people don't, from a fear-of-salt thing from the 60s/70s that was the low fat diet scam of its day). You're addicted, basically. A couple weeks of home cooking will break that, especially if you're providing yourself a good substitute. Salt is not evil, and I can guarantee you that even if you feel like you're using a heavy hand in your kitchen, you probably won't be using as much as restaurants anyway.

Sorry, should've posted this right away!

I just got the bottles from Amazon, here They're actually really small, only about half a standard shot each, but I figured its probably for the best if we don't get hammered during our session :P

Mana Potion:

• Sprite
  
• Blue Curacao
  
• Dash of Peppermint Schnapps
  
• Dash of Vodka
  
  Health Potion:
  
  
• Cranberry Juice
  
• Butterscotch Schnapps
  
• Dash of Rum
  
  The health one's a little weird, but it ends up having an interesting licorice-y flavor. I'm definitely open to suggestions on it, though! And this only took me about a half hour total to make all these. It took a slightly steady hand, but I just filled them with my little measuring cup.

This has worked great for me, and with Prime shipping, it's a no-brainer

There are essentially two companies selling cedar trays on Amazon. After reading through reviews one company has a bunch of "mold" reviews, wherein the trays ARRIVED with mold already on them. Mold will obviously destroy your cigar habitat. The trays listed below are ones I purchased and came in great condition.

1. Cigar Oasis Caliber IV Hygrometer
   
2. 2 Cedar Trays
   
3. 1 Sistema 1870 Klip It
   
4. 2 Boveda 69% (60g)
   
   ​

The 7 Liter (236oz) (7.4qt) (42 cup) Sistema almost perfectly fits the 2 cedar trays that I got from Amazon. I was very pleased with it. The container goes by many names - I've literally seen it go by each of those unit of measures. Amazon has it for like $36 which is crazy. I had Walmart ship me one but they sent a 5 liter by accident and think the item listing is incorrect about the sizing. Sistemas have a rubber gasket on the lid and 4 flip lock things to keep the lid secure.

I ended up going with the Container Store. They are not in my area so I had to buy online and pay for the shipping. They go for $12.99

https://www.containerstore.com/s/kitchen/food-storage/plastic/rectangular-klip-it-food-storage/123d?productId=10021671

I've gotten two different cedar trays from Amazon and this is the one that is a great fit: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00B9234HE

I've also bought https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0733TYGWX/ but the fit wasn't as good (it is a little smaller).

The one with the good fit has 2x5 of those holes in the bottom while the one that was a little smaller has 2x3 holes.

It's almost like you could purchase something like that on Amazon...

Oh my god,I'm such a derp sorry! haha those are from Amazon, here is the link :)

I can fit 2 of these trays in this Sistema 7.4 qt.

1. Humans perplex me. By my silver scales, if it is not shootings, in an uncommon place... it's strangulation in a... what do you homo sapiens call that piece of literature... Ah, " Stepford like " community of an elderly woman, only for the executioner to be found, in his truck, dead by his own hands and bullet. Even more baffling? Taking plastic men modelled after a 'Controversial' Television show off the shelves of a toystore due to an mollycoddling child bearer. This whole thing is... monotonous at best. Why do you creatures let such things transpire? You cease to amaze me.

   :D :D

Thanks! I'll check through those.

I was looking at this one until you said no glass tops.

I've had 2 humidors (first one gave up the ghost to an empty glass dropped by a drunk person)

• The Capri Glass Top. I actually really liked this humidor. Nothing super special mind you, but I did the job well enough.
  
• Tabacalera Perdomo 20 Count. This guy was a bit cheaper, as my budget for replacement wasn't quite what I would have liked. Got it for a good price in a freefall deal on CigarBid. I've only had it a few weeks. So far no complaints really. It holds moisture well. Not as pretty as the capri, but such is life, right? For someone who feels like they're drowning in an ocean of tobacco at 20 cigars, it does just fine.

check out some other ones at amazon.
http://www.amazon.com/Quality-Importers-Desktop-Humidor-Capri-Glasstop/dp/B002TOK352/ref=sr_1_1?s=home-garden&ie=UTF8&qid=1312594393&sr=1-1

also keep in mind if you think a 10 count humidor is enough aim for at least a 20, the sticks add up fast.

you can also find some deals on imperfect humidors here
http://www.cheaphumidors.com/c_imperfect-humidors.html

They're not that far between. And frankly, instead of the one you're pointing to, I would go for one of these instead(though there's no variety there, which seems to be what you're looking for...)

That $100 one you pointed to is kinda alright, but really, IMO the G2's and the Black pearls are really poor smokes. Like I couldn't finish the Pearls I've had and the G2 I smoked was finished only because it was going to be my last smoke for a week or two, so I wanted to savor every last moment. I definitely wouldn't go back.

If I was you, I would get a Bally 100-ct humidor or even this smaller Capri and then get a nice sampler from Famous-Smoke (who I find to have much better samplers) (or get one of CI's nicer samplers cheaper on cigarbid.com

Something like one of the Famous Smoke Best of Samplers. From that bunch, I think the Best of Dominican, the Best of Medium Bodied or the Best of Full Bodied selections are pretty damn great. (Also check out the Best of Camaroon or Best of Habano samplers... good stuff in there. However, I have been enjoying this 2010 Awards Sampler from cigar.com that has a wide selection of mild to full, small to big smokes. That might actually be a great starting place, though I really would recommend that, if you go with that one, you append it with a couple singles of Arturo Fuente Short Stories and a couple Padron 2000's in both natural and maduro.

Hope that helps. Typically, though, those humi+cigar deals are filled with house-brand filler smokes and it's not actually as good a deal as it seems. Your call.

I purchased this and outgrew it in less than a year:

http://www.amazon.com/Quality-Importers-Desktop-Humidor-Capri-Glasstop/dp/B002TOK352

The tupperdor suggestion is probably good. If you get a shit ton of tupperware, then you buy a huge cooler.

LOVE this. Took only 24 hrs to season, and I didn't wipe it down. Would buy again, and recommend.

http://www.amazon.com/Quality-Importers-Desktop-Humidor-Capri-Glasstop/dp/B002TOK352/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1331336141&sr=8-1

Quality Importers Desktop Humidor, Capri, with Tempered Glasstop, Cedar Divider, and Brass Ring Glass Hygrometer, Holds 25 to 50 Cigars, by https://www.amazon.com/dp/B002TOK352/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_DhNNBb27SF052

I personally bought this one, right now I'm seasoning it, but reviews say it's good and from all the ones I looked at this one seemed the best for the price.

I just bought this one on Amazon, and am really happy with it. Something comparable would've cost me like $100 at my local smoke shop

There's this, you could also do this one.

Cool, I might pick some up, thank you. My humidor was also for Christmas:

I'm going to pick up some aquarium sealant for the glass. Maybe I'll put 2-69%'s in there if it leaks at all.

I edited my price. My scumbag brain twisted the 5 and 7. Still is under $150 rounding up. If I look for those cigars on atlantic, cigar.com and famous smoke or any site you get a reddit discount, easy to shave the price down. You can certainly get that humidor for next to nothing on amazon.

So I've been lurking here for a while, and recently purchased this humidor. Two things I was wondering about:

• In the thread about cigar sins, I saw several people dissing glass top humidors... Why?
  
• When I first got it, I was able to get it to about 70% humidity with just distilled water. I kept a shot glass full of it as well as having some on the sponge. However, now that I've got a bunch of cigars in there, humidity can't seem to get over 60%. Even if I add water all the time. Could this be because the heat is on/it's drier in my place, or am I looking at a bad seal? Or would I be able to resolve this with a better sponge/using the humidor solution? Not really sure how to check for the cause.
  
  Any help would be appreciated.

I almost ordered that one but ordered this instead: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B002TOK352/ref=oh_details_o01_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

It's probably on the same lines of quality but for my first one, I figured it wouldn't be too much out of my pocket if it ends up being crap. Currently I just calibrated the hygrometer and now it's sitting with a shot glass of water in it to season the cedar that's in it. If anything, might make a cool looking mod case for a mini-computer...

I bought these, then I mixed some water, food colouring gel, and citric acid and eye dropper-ed it in. Then I dipped the cork in super glue and let it dry. I did that so the liquid wouldn't soak through the cork and discolour it.

Theeen I melted some sealing wax, dipped the cork in that and put it in the bottle and dripped (kinda) some more wax around the cork!

Hope that helps. :]

That is a single 20 oz bottle. Amazon has small jars for less money.

This bottle is close, but it doesn't have a cork top.

These 2 are basically the exact bottles from the games, but they're incredibly tiny.

amazon , there’s a wooden insert for where the neck of a bottle would rest, I used rubbing alcohol to weaken the wood glue, and rocked the piece out.

If you're going to go full Cool Uncle on this, I recommend presenting the saber in a wooden box, something like this.

This can be either natural, or fancied up with wood stain outside and foam with fabric over it on the inside. This can make a fun project, for pretty cheap.

The blade would be separate, true - but a maximum level Cool Uncle will have the blade and an Allen wrench handy, maybe in a shinai bag with a couple of spare blades.

I actually found it at college, during building construction... the guys said I could have it!

But I just found this one on Amazon...!

F.e.s.s. Fess Storage versatility... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0733TYGWX?ref=yo_pop_ma_swf

Yes I got it off Amazon. The hygrometer is great and visually I like it when I peek in my office to check the humidity. Checking the trends were convient when it was settling out. Definitely recommend the 65 boveda because I started with 69 and it would fluctuate between 68-71 because of how well the systema holds humidity.

Fess Cedar Tray

For a collection that size, do you maintain an inventory list? I only keep around 350-500 cigars on hand at a time, and keep a Google Spreadsheet that shows Name/Size/Quantity/Cost for each stick in my humidor. I find that this helps me figure out what I should be ordering without having to dig through the humidor. Around 3 times a year, I'll do a complete re-inventory to make sure I've tracked everything correctly.

I use a single large Sistema container which holds 18 cedar trays (these) stacked in 3 columns of 6. It holds 448 Toro-size (6x52) cigars.

Idk how they came across that.

This is all it is.

The metal plate goes inside the first book (ie, inside the cover). That holds the first book, then the others just sit up against it. It helps if you have something you can put the books up against on the other end so they don't slide (like a wall or bookshelf end).

Now you can have your own cast iron plaque.

Will let you know how it turns out

That humidor on the left, is that this one? How do you like it?

If it has to be bought from amazon, my friend and I each have this one of these right now, performs quite well. However, if you can, I would actually try out cigarbid for humidors, they usually have all the standard humidors for a great price if you can pull the bid off.

Here's some decent ones, but they are a bit overpriced compared to non Amazon prices.

I have this humidor- https://www.amazon.com/Quality-Importers-Desktop-Humidor-Capri-Glasstop/dp/B002TOK352/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1486606699&sr=8-3&keywords=humidor and the only reason I have the oasis is I found it for $10.

For instance, would this be a decent purchase? http://www.amazon.com/Quality-Importers-Desktop-Humidor-Capri-Glasstop/dp/B002TOK352/ref=lh_ni_t?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER

I got one identical to this one. It looks nice for sure, however I find it seriously leaks contrary to the “sureseal” technology. From some of the reviews people written, some people suspect the leak is due to the hydrometer not being sealed properly. I’d buy the used one if I were to re-buy this product.

link to amazon

Go on cbid, you can get a deal. Or hit amazon thats what I got for my first humidor, it works well. Don't take advantage of the nice people on this sub.

Well, sort of, but a humidifier is generally used to humidify a whole room or something, and a humidor is specifically for keeping and/or aging cigars. Here's a good example of one. They can vary in size though. That's more on the small end, but I've seen whole rooms rigged as humidors.

Wow! I'm seasoning it with a shot glass filled with distilled water. The instructions say do it for a day. Will my cigars last in a ziplock if I Gould do it for 3 days? This is the humidor I have for reference:

Thanks. Also does this seem like a good humidor?

Thanks! I don't really feel comfortable saying what I like about cigars yet, because I would most likely be guessing or talking out of my ass. I tend to enjoy some scotch with them, I don't know if that is any help. I have looked into some sort of storage device because I tend to smoke 1-2 on the weekends rather than mid week. [This] (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B002TOK352/ref=oh_o00_s00_i00_details) was recommended in another thread I read and also looked into seasoning them correctly and keeping the humidity at a good %.

$30? This one was my first humidor.

I have this one and it resulted in the FUNNIEST damned thing happening. I live in a town that is just over 10k people. We have a mind boggling number of churches. And so there are a lot of religious door knockers.

One day, I had 2 ladies who were obvious church ladies (by the way they dressed and they were holding bibles) come up on my porch, read the sign, and turn and walk away. I was alerted to their presence by my dogs. And so I looked out the window in time to see one of the women gesticulating wildly with an obviously disgruntled look on her face. Priceless.

How often do you brake glass using a saw? Right now I use a kinkajou glass cutter and fracture the glass with hot water. I get ~95% success rate using this method.

Search around for those, you can probably find them cheaper but I own a set and they are awesome.

Nope, I'm in California, they're in Pennsylvania. From what I can tell, Amazon has them for $16 per case with Prime. Filmore Container has them for $4 per case plus shipping.

From PA to CA, 1 case ships for $14.60, making Amazon a better deal. 2 cases ship for $19.54, making Filmore Container a way better deal. The larger the volume, the more you save.

Free shipping isn't always a good deal, because it doesn't allow you to save by buying in bulk.

TL;DR If you're buying 1 case, use Amazon Prime. If you are buying 2 or more cases, use Filmore Container.

12 for $18 is better but you may get stuck with shipping costs unless you order 24...
