Re: Snus?
 

I'm trying to get away from Camel Snus as well. I'll have to pick up some different minis to see which ones I like. Off to getsnusdotcom I go :D

Dayum shipping is $ for this stuff. :hn Oh well 6 cans, 3 flavors on the way.

Re: Snus?
 

How much was shipping, if I may ask?

Re: Snus?
 

Shipping starts @$13.00 for UPS. It has to be UPS and you have to sign for it. Thank you PACT:confused:

Re: Snus?
 

Andrew, Smoker's Outlet has them retail for $3.99/can. I'm sure your brother, or one of us on the east side could buy them and mail them to you if it would save you some money.

Re: Snus?
 

Wow. Well that's not good.

Re: Snus?
 

You guys should also give www.northerner.com for snus, and dip. they are a great site!

Re: Snus?
 

Same $$ for shipping?

Re: Snus?
 

They should be the same $$ for shipping. If you look close at almost all the online sites that are shipping from the US they all come out of the northerer warehouse:td I can get it cheaper locally than using northerer when they include the pact tobacco tax and the shipping. But, I can't get a variety.

Re: Snus?
 

If the variety isn't a concern, I wonder how many cans we could fit in a $5 USPS small flat rate box?

Maybe we could save some folks some money.

Re: Snus?
 

Lol, if you're offering...

at the moment I won't buy from the online stores. I don't smoke cigarettes, and I'm not trying to quit or anything. Paying almost double or triple my order cost for shipping just isn't going to work for me.

Re: Snus?
 

I know a couple sites used to give you free shipping if you ordered over a certain amount. Getsnus used to give free shipping for orders over $49, but I don't knwo if they still do it. If that is the case still, it might do well to hold some sort of GB.

Re: Snus?
 

Thanks for volunteering, Wayne! :ss :r

Re: Snus?
 

Heh, I know that is tounge in cheek, but I don't want to piss off anyone enforcing PACT. However, I don't see a problem with someone who might order a couple sleeves anyway, tacking on a few more cans for a BOTL.

Re: Snus?
 

I was just saying if people are going to pay $4.50+/can plus $7 shipping, some of us Detroiters might be able to save you a few bucks. Not a ton, but they are $3.99/can and as many as can fit into a $5 flat rate box.

Not sure if it's worth the trouble, but it might be worthwhile. If getsnus or northerner offer free shipping for 10 cans or more, our offer might be moot.

Re: Snus?
 

Right, but what does smokers outlet carry? Just the mini mint and what else? That's what I was saying about no variety.

Re: Snus?
 

That's true.

Re: Snus?
 

I'm gonna go checkout what they have but I'm pretty sure it's just mini mint, wintergreen, mint and silver. If there was a group buy put together I'm sure it would be cheaper..

Re: Snus?
 

They no longer offer any free shipping. Almost everyone you can buy from in the US is owned by Northerner now. Getsnus sold a few months ago. There was another online retailer I checked out. Their prices looked great, but when it came to shipping, it was $35!

Re: Snus?
 

what is silver?

Re: Snus?
 

Silver is the regular (unflavored) General snus.

MCS

Re: Snus?
 

That truly sucks. Oh well, $13 shipping spread out over a few people ain't much.

Re: Snus?
 

DayUm... I just went to a couple sites to get some General White Portion Mint. The price for 50 cans came out to $148.80... not bad. Shipping was $18.99... not bad. The killer was the tobacco tax of $112.50!!! WTF!!!!

If anyone knows how to help a brother out I would appreciate it.

Re: Snus?
 

Whoa! Not good!

Re: Snus?
 

I could talk to our local B&M. They sell them at $3.99/can + 6% sales tax.

50 x $3.99 = $199.50

199.50 x 1.06 = $211.47

Not certain but I would think 50 cans would fit in a $10 flat rate box. That would put the grand total at $221.47. Much cheaper than $280.29 ($148.80+$18.99+$112.50)

As mentioned above, variety might be the issue. I think our locals B&M only has mini mint, wintergreen, mint & silver. Plus, I'm not sure they would have all 50 on hand. We might have to wait for stock to come in.

Let me know if you want me to stop in and talk to them. They are only 3 miles from work, I could stop in on lunch.

Re: Snus?
 

Thanks for the offer brother... I decided to go another route. I'll let everyone know how it works out.

Re: Snus?
 

I just can't do the flavored or mini snus. I'm currently enjoying the Oden's extra strong and Monte Cristo(down to my last few cans) :(
I like the stronger stuff with tobacco and herbal flavors, plus I don't like it to take forever for the flavors to bleed through, which is what white portions are for.

Re: Snus?
 

I don't know if you are still open to suggestions for snus to try. Thunder Original is still one of my favorites. I also love General Extra Sterk, Skruf Extra Sterk, and of course the classics like Ettan or General. All of the ones I mentioned before the classics are HARD hitting stuff. I myself used to dip, but then made the transition to snus and found that only the stronger blends could give me a nicotine buzz like with dip.

Re: Snus?
 

Yeah, I've got a roll in the freezer of the General extra sterk, 02, Skruf extra, Odens Cinnamon extra sterk, 1887, and a couple stragglers. I'm not a fan of Ettan or Nick and Johnny snus (tried almost all).
I've got some rolls coming along with a few extra cans of new stuff I wanted to try:
General Long Sterk
Gotlandssnus Julesnus (Christmas) Portion

If the Christmas release turns out nice, I'll order a roll or two before they pull them off the shelf after Christmas time.
I'll do a mini review of those when they come in.

Re: Snus?
 

Snus'ing right now.

Re: Snus?
 

+1 got a generous pris of General Extra Sterk in right now! :tu

Re: Snus?
 

Well yeah! If'n I'm not smokin a ceegar, I'm more than likely snus'in. -(P

Re: Snus?
 

Gotta love it! Not gonna lie, it is a great way to pass time during work or university classes! I do it all the time! :D

Re: Snus?
 

you know, before I found the thread, and before all of you, all I thought that was out there was dip. (I'm not fond of it, or spitting). I would have NEVER tried any of this stuff if it weren't for you guys!

So, Thanks to all of you for info and especially those of you who sent me snus to try! I'm starting to find what I like and it's all because of you all!

Re: Snus?
 

I Snus more than I smoke cigars now. Can't smoke inside at home or while at work, but I can Snus. Plus it is cheaper than cigars which is a big bonus right now. Currently using the dry mint portion. Need to go pick up some more today or tomorrow.

Re: Snus?
 

We should make a "What are you currently snusing?" thread!

Right now I got a decently sized pris of Thunder Extra Stark Original in!

Re: Snus?
 

Re: Snus?
 

FYI: GetSnus.com has some "close to expiration" cans available for .93 each as of a couple days ago. I check them frequently. The last cans I got that were close to expiration had dates of 2/2011. Kinda helps with the shipping upcharge.

Re: Snus?
 

They have good prices, but the shipping encourages me to order from across the atlantic.
The wait is worth the 20 or 30 bones saved in shipping.

Re: Snus?
 

As far as I know, you can't order from outside the USA if you're a resident.

MCS

Re: Snus?
 

Anyone still snusing?

Re: Snus?
 

Every so often. I've settled for using the abhorrent Camel emus.

Re: Snus?
 

I don't even know what that is.

Re: Snus?
 

Camel vs Emu?
