    Excessive or the norm?

    Well I have just placed my fifth order with buysnus.com for a roll of Skruf Stark Portions and 2 cans of Ettan.

    Now My wife says," Did you purchase more of that snus?"
    I said, why yes I did, I ran out of that flavor.
    She heads to the freezer and comes back and says, "Now dont you think 38 cans in the freezer and 8 in the refrigerator is a bit excessive?"
    I said I don't think so.

    What do you think? Is that excessive or the norm?

      :lol: I guess according to your freezer I am. Wow, so you have 220, what does the normal snuser have in their freezer. I was thinking I was a snusaholic, HA HA HA

        GenuineSpirit, I would say that there are quite a few people here with snus collections that size.

        My girlfriend just laughs when I say I am ordering snus again. She couldn't believe how excited I was about the release of Jakobsson's...

        Despite her poking fun at me I think she's just glad I quit smoking. So much so that she is bringing me a roll of General from Cape Town next week (as she does every time she flies up to visit me)

        I think I am personally more worried about my obsession with snus. Last night I had a dream that I had to travel to Cape Town urgently and only had two portions left in my can of Gul and no time to go home and fetch more. How would I survive? So I ran around looking for snus at Heathrow until someone reminded me they sell General and Catch in CT.

        Weird....

          WOW!!!!!!!

          38 cans in the freezer, and 8 open?

          I must not go through snus as fast. The most I've had is 15 on ice, and 7 open. Right now only have 8 in the freezer, but I'm anxiously waiting for the mailman. Buysnus order should arrive today.

          I'm half afraid of what my better half would say if I reach 220 tins on ice :wink:

                Optimium 40

                I want to keep 40 on hand mostly (like I have now) ... when I get down to the last 10 can I'll reorder 40.

                This way I'll stay safe and won't run out.

                I am using a poster / map mail roll to store mine in the freezer. Works nice.

                  I reorder when I'm down to 30. I ran out once, very traumatic experience. :P

                    WOW.

                    Im a snus fiend. I mean i hardly ever go with out a portion or some los in my lip. So much so I ended up with a canker sore on my gums yesterday from excessive use.

                    I usually keep ten in the fridge. I worry about freezing snus and losing moisture and flavor. Im just paranoid like that though.

                    But i have noticed that I need at least 15-20 cans in an order to last me the next couple months.

                      I think I use about 1 tin of lös, and 1 tin of portions per week. It's hard to tell because I always have several open at once. I buy rolls of everything I like so I always have exactly what I want on hand. I'll be trimming my "must have" list slightly, but I imagine I'll have 180-200 tins at any given time.

                        9 open in the fridge and about 20 in the deep freeze. I also just ordered 15 more today.

                            I have never noticed any loss of moisture or taste, and some of mine have been on deep freeze for 3 or 4 months.

                              I'm about 20 frozen and 7 Frigerator.

                              I'm about split between lös and portions.

                              I love frozen portions!!

                              I'm fighting the urge to place another order.

                                Do you all defrost your portions in the fridge before using them when you take them out of the deep freeze (assuming freezer storage)?

                                So usually I really get into reviewing a snus, but I do not like this snus one bit.

                                Like all Lundgrens these tins and portions are awesome....

                                This is not the original Skruf Stark Los, but it is pretty darn good.

                                This snus has a good grind and is not “pasty” like a Prima Fint....
