Anyone use cigar boxes for storage?

[OCD]

Is it just me, or does anyone else miss the good old days when really neat or important stuff was stored away in a cigar box. I always knew I was in for a treat when one of my elders would pull an old cigar box down off the shelf to show me something special. :huh: Now, plastic containers are the norm. I personally have a couple of cigar boxes. I use one of them to hold the arrow heads I found in my dad's garden as a kid.

I use my cigar boxes to store my watches, cuff links, and tie bars. Maybe I should add another box full of lights

Ahh... Cigar boxes.
They practically are a one time use boxes but usually with good brands they definitely are made so, that they don´t look or feel like one

...and that cedar smell...

edit: and (if you look away from tax-stickers and stuff) there are boxes, which you cannot easily determine if it is old or new by the looks of it
They are done by "the old style"
