S.A.D. (snus acquisition disorder)

[luckysealy]

just curious how many cans everyone has stashed away? i have around 80 or so.

[PassedPawn]

Bout 32. I think I only have room in the fridge for about 50 or so.

[joshua]

40+.

[sagedil]

I have managed to temper my obsession to about 40+ cans in the freezer. At my worst, I had 90.

[luckysealy]

i forgot to say that i have 35 more on the way. didn't think i should count them since they aren't actually here yet. don't want to count my snus before it hatches. i do tend to use out of several diff. cans during the day. so i have lots of cans of snus the i start finishng off lot's of cans within a few days of each other.

38 at the moment, with 15 more on the way.

Pretty tame by the standard of some of the people here, but really far more than I need at any given time... Somehow, there always seems to something that I need to order right away! Thunder came out a couple weeks ago, and I just had to get a roll. Then I discovered the joys of los, and decided to get a mixed roll of that, as well.

Currently, I'm trying to convince myself to stop ordering snus for a couple months. And yet the new Wintergreen Thunder calls to me, begging me to buy a roll, or maybe two...

I have been thinking the same thing about the new Cinnamon. Plus I want more of the new Skuff Whites, wanna try the regular as well as get more stark. I was close the other day, but then just decided I can wait. I have SO much good snus, the new stuff will still be there when I order again. Plus, i have almost overdosed on so much new stuff. Maybe better to stretch that part out. have new stuff in a month to try rather than trying it all NOW.

Besides, only way I would comfortably have the cash for any more is to take from savings. (Only get paid once a month, so what I have now has to last) You know, I suspect I really don't need snus that bad.

[snusjus]

17 cans of General Ekstra Sterk in my freezer.

1 can of General Ekstra Sterk in my refrigerator

1 can of Gotlandssnus Anis loose in my refrigerator (I don't know if I can bear to finish the can).

To be honest, I don't have any compulsion to purchase large stockpiles of snus. Perhaps I inherited this from my anti-materialistic philosophy. When I get down to 10 cans, I usually restock with 15-20 cans.

My next order will most likely consist of (10) Lucky Strike Original Portions and some various snus' I have yet to try.

[lxskllr]

About 200 :^D

lxs i envy you, if i stop buying food at the grocery store i would have more room in the freezer and fridge. hmm if i only eat once every 2 days i would also have more $ for snus.

[Jordasche]

22 in the freezer, always. The bottom rack on the door holds that many snugly.

When I get down to 17, I order 5 more.

[KarlvB]

I only have about 10 cans. 4 lös and 6 portion. I enjoy the ordering process and getting fresh snus so I tend to order less more regularly.

[Paul Jolley]

30+ now 8). Obsessed with buying new snus, and my wallet's feeling it.

[Hoovie]

Alright, someone is going to have to explain this to me.

Why do ya'll stockpile snus?


I have about 12 cans as I just got a new order in. 3 are open. When those 3 run out, I open 3 more. When I get down to 3 left, I order ~12 more. I'm still relatively new to snus, so I'm still trying all the flavors/brands. I like to keep different tastes rotating. Usually 1 Stark, 1 Regular, 1 Mint/Berry.

Right now I have Grov Black, Skruf Cranberry, and Knox open.

I answered that same question on another thread, but will repeat it here.



I was traumatized last February. I had been really poor ever since my motorcycle accident the previous November, and had been ordering when I was down to 3 or 4 cans. My one BAD Buysnus order took 2 weeks and I ran out of portions. I still had some los, and that tided me over, but I really was traumatized by the experience.

So I started ordering more and more. In May, I settled with the insurance company and got $9500 above my medical bills. A big chunk of that went to buy Baby, my GV250. But I had cash for the first time, so ordered snus with abandon, getting up to about 90 in the freezer. I stayed that way through October, but really started to miss ordering snus, plus the flood of new started then. So trying all the new, but not overdoing the orders means I am now down to about 40 - 50 at my peak. I will order when i get down to about 20, and usually order between 20 - 30 at a time now.

A comfortable compromise. :wink:
