Snus? - Page 3

wavescrashing · 10-07-2010, 01:06 AM

I quit cigarettes over two years ago.
I've currently been on an Oden's strong and 02 Strong kick. The Oden's are a lot more flavorful though. The 02s take quite some time to "bleed" through the pouch, similar to a white portion. I've also been enjoying the General Onyx. I revisited these about a week ago. I forgot how much I like them.

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

Dayum shipping is $ for this stuff.

Oh well 6 cans, 3 flavors on the way.

How much was shipping, if I may ask?

Wow. Well that's not good.

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.

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

Same $$ for shipping?

fissure · 10-08-2010, 06:29 AM

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

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.

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.

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.

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.

Silver is the regular (unflavored) General 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.

Emjaysmash · 10-19-2010, 06:55 PM

Whoa! Not good!

357 · 10-20-2010, 07:25 AM

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.

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

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.
