IcedCanuck Posted December 14, 2015 Posted December 14, 2015 At some point I started keeping them and now have quite the stack of empty boxes. I am getting ready to move next month and have been throwing all kinds of stuff into the trash that I don't use anymore or have no need for and those boxes have made the list. Before giving them a sendoff into a dumpster I thought I would ask what everybody else does with the boxes. Do you keep them or toss them? If you keep them what do you do with them?
irratebass Posted December 14, 2015 Posted December 14, 2015 I usually put mine in the fire pit, or give them to anyone who wants them. Some people like to use them as wall decorations, and I've actually seen someone who used them for a table...pretty cool, I am just not that clever. 1
subport Posted December 14, 2015 Posted December 14, 2015 I only keep cabs and slbs. Dress boxes are going to the trash

I always keep boxes and will end up giving them away. They are too pretty not to. Do you have any Double Corrona Cabs you are going to toss? I have been thinking of posting asking if anyone had one. I have a stack of DCs singles I would like to consolidate. 1
tjohn7 Posted December 14, 2015 Posted December 14, 2015 I often give my boxes to relatives in gifts (if it's a small item or series of items). My family also enjoys using them to hold miscellaneous items around the house. I think it's cool to see all my old boxes around the garage or workspace and people seem to enjoy it. 2
Martin3203 Posted December 14, 2015 Posted December 14, 2015 If you decide to toss them let me know. I will take some off your hands. Sent from my SM-G928V using Tapatalk
spicycorona Posted December 14, 2015 Posted December 14, 2015 They go into the wood stove, minus the hardware.

ayepatz Posted December 14, 2015 Posted December 14, 2015 I rarely want to keep them, but the missus loves them. Hates cigars, but loves the boxes. Go figure.
LateApex Posted December 14, 2015 Posted December 14, 2015 here's a couple ideas I came across. Nice! 2
brschoppe Posted December 14, 2015 Posted December 14, 2015 Put an add out on the free things section of Craigslist. Sure some crafty person would love you for donating them. Wonder if a scout pack would take them for a craft? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Popular Post Profmd Posted December 14, 2015 Popular Post Posted December 14, 2015 I've see quite a few people doing this so I thought I'd give it a shot. 7
jwr0201 Posted December 24, 2015 Posted December 24, 2015 Scouts love 'em! Cigar boxes make great project boxes fr both boy and girl scouts. Look up a scout troop and offer them the boxes. 1
Squarehead Posted December 24, 2015 Posted December 24, 2015 here's a couple ideas I came across. Thats a great idea
Napa_Smokes Posted December 24, 2015 Posted December 24, 2015 I've donated some to a preschool for crafts in the past. They used them to make pencil boxes and who knows what else.
dangolf18 Posted December 24, 2015 Posted December 24, 2015 Interesting ideas...I have way too many. Definitely going to hang on to the "rarer" boxes, but might purge the rest. I already use a few as desk organizers.
perkinke Posted December 25, 2015 Posted December 25, 2015 My girlfriend uses some to organize her crafting supplies.
JohnS Posted December 25, 2015 Posted December 25, 2015 Empty cigar boxes? Hmmm...I haven't put much thought into keeping or discarding them, other than I've tended to keep the varnished boxes for some reason!
HiPower Posted December 26, 2015 Posted December 26, 2015 They have served well in my work toolbox for holding everything from drill bits to the myriad of coax connectors I need to keep on hand.
TomF Posted December 26, 2015 Posted December 26, 2015 Recently I lined a few (varnished and SLB's) with wax paper and filled them with Christmas cookies we had made and gave them out as gifts. My friends loved them, and the cookies did not taste of cigars. 1
aushy Posted December 26, 2015 Posted December 26, 2015 here's a couple ideas I came across. I love these! I'm in need of a new watch box as well, will definitely be giving this a shot with my next empty box.
jat Posted December 27, 2015 Posted December 27, 2015 I've see quite a few people doing this so I thought I'd give it a shot. That is definitely something for the man cave!!!
jwr0201 Posted December 30, 2015 Posted December 30, 2015 I work at a cigar shop on occasion and like to give the odd box to people who have kids. Amazing how much value a simple empty cigar box has to a kid!
CanuckSARTech Posted January 13, 2016 Posted January 13, 2016 Give one to the Wife unit to put it in her nightstand drawer, use it as a storage solution for all those "adult" electronic and/or silicone companions. The tongue-in-cheek aspect of using a cigar box for that is priceless. Now - whether you use a petit coronas box or an A's box, that's a debate for another day! 4
