Cigar stores used to throw them away, but have caught on to their popularity. I have a cigar store near me, and went in one day (braving the smoke - it's also got a smoking lounge), to ask for extra empty boxes - they charged me $1.50 for a small, and $2.00 for a large. I just wiped them out and set them on the windowsill for a day to get rid of the tobacco smell. I keep my writing utensils in them. They add some color to my desk.deannanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4238401484560614586.post-29902594045493081282009-12-29T17:05:14.068-08:002009-12-29T17:05:14.068-08:00Claycat, tins can be wonderful; I've written a...Claycat, tins can be wonderful; I've written about them <a href="http://jdorganizer.blogspot.com/search?q=tins" rel="nofollow">a number of times</a>.Jeri Danskyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01647833266269245240noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4238401484560614586.post-30189256160044467582009-12-29T15:39:35.036-08:002009-12-29T15:39:35.036-08:00I love beautiful boxes, too!
