I want to repack a box of cigs in small quantity quart freezer bags - 10 or so to a bag that I can take out of the freezer only as many as needed. What effect will thawing them just enough to separate them and then re-freezing them in the bags have on them? Also, should I dry freeze them or fill the bags with water?
:fishing:
they might tear like the killer bee cigs in the belly area at least thats what happend to mine
You may not have to thaw them at all. If they are decent quality, you can break them up by pounding the package on concrete and they will break apart quite nicely unless they have a lot of water in with them. I just finished breaking up a couple of boxes from J&M that way. They probably won't fit in quart ziplocs---I have to use gallon.

::) Thanks. Didn't even think about that. 10 of the white box cigs fill a qt freezer bag about 3/4 full. Right nice stackable.
Do you fill the bags with water or leave them dry?
[font=comic sans ms][size=12pt]When you drop a block of frozen cigs on the garage floor, make sure they are in plastic garbage bag ore something that will keep them from going all over the garage.
If you lose one, it will tell you where it is in a few days. :puke:

Something uniquely evil about the smell of rotting fish.
You ain't kidding :run
Do like George said but do it as needed because they will last much longer when frozen in a block and do not add water.
Thanks to all
i heard its good to put some salt in the bag with them... don't know if it works yet i did it but havnt taken them out of the freezer yet
