    Where do you guys store your camo when your not in the woods? I know you can get these expensive "air-tight no scent" bags from Scent Lok and whatever but just wondering a cheap way to go about it? A garbage bag maybe?

    I put them on a plastic container that I bought at the dollar store. I put one of the earth scent wafers in the container .

    garbage bags work but almost all of them are treated with insectcide that gives off a oder of its own.sportsmans guide has some scentlok camo duffle bag for about 25 bucks I bought a couple and they work great

    I got HUGE hunter specialties zip lock bags. One for early season, one with winter camo, and one for my base layers that touch my skin. I think they are like $7

    I have to say I love my watson airlock it holds all the cloths I need to go hunting.
    My favorite feature is the plastic mat that folds out so you can stand on this to change your cloths.
    When your done it just rolls right back up into the pocket.

    I use just a regular tote with lid that you can buy from walmart for $5-$8. I have 4 of them, so that I dont jam pack my clothes into the tote, and so the scent wafers i place inside can circulate better.

    5 dollar plastic bin. But, to be honest I killed tons of deer in college and my clothes sat in the corner of my room in the frat house. The smell was something like a mix of alcohol, cigarets, and fast women...? Maybe deer like all those things?

    I keep my outer ware in a plastic tote in the back of my jeep. I always spray it down good before putting it away. I keep long johns, socks & undies in a scent proof bag in my basement.

    The space bags from Wally world work good. The kind you see on TV when they suck the air out of stuff with a vacuum. All different sizes - like jumbo zip locks only better & cheaper.

    This is what I've been useing for the last year and they all held out so that I can reuse them again this season. best 4 bucks I've ever spent. I can fit my pants and jacket and a few other items in the same bag.

    I use a plastic chest type deal, has two metal latches and wheels and a handle on the side. It's big enough that I can fit all my clothes In it, plus cedar branches. For my hunting bag and boots, I have another plastic tote with cedar branches too.

    Added some baking soda, mentioned above is a great idea. I put plastic bags inside my plastic totes. So far that is the best and most cost effective way. Great thread guys.
