i'm fairly pissed.

I figure if something has a barcode then these ****ing Gestapo officers can run a scan and a search for the goddamn product and see for themselves it's nothing illicit. Jeez!

Well, you know what the Swedish Mafia are like... do you have any idea how much cocaine they produce there?! And man, don't even start with the terrorists. It's practically Al Qaeda central - they love the moose and the icy, sleet saturated winters :roll: :lol:

Re: i'm fairly pissed.

I'm on day 10 of waiting for my order from Buysnus... I hope nobody has opened my tins when they arrive!

i've been waiting 9 days since my northerner order was sent. i sent two "customer support" messages and got no reply. i'm VERY annoyed with this right now... i just want a reply or something. is 9 days normal?

This Swiss Post shipping option doesn't sound too good. When I complained a while back they blaimed it on the recent postal strikes in the UK. I think I'll place an order with Northerner next time to see if it comes through quicker.

If it's UK postal strikes, then they must have sent my order to the US by way of the UK. I'm still waiting for my shipment.

Re: i'm fairly pissed.

Well, it arrived, 11 days in transit. 10 cans of Lucky and 5 cans of Grovsnus loose.

Nothing appears to be opened, and I'm trying loose for the first time ever, a veeery generous log of Grovsnus - NICE I can tell I won't be able to do this at work, I'll have to stick to my usual two portions at the same time of Lucky. Digging the loose, though

Grov is tops in my book. If you work around people, though, and aren't secluded a good portion of the time, portions are indeed probably the best option. In my case, I'm behind a locked door most of the work day and can get away with wandering around with a generous pris under my lip.

Of course, when I forget it's there and then go to pick my kids up from the day care, I get a lot of weird looks.

[jmcphail]

Loose during the day is just an impossibility for me - too many meetings, too many unplanned encounters with people whose opinions affect my livelihood, etc.

I've taken to two folded portions up top and two slices of Oliver Twist on the bottom, it's really nice and unnoticeable, and will carry me through an entire morning, and I can sip coffee too, a big bonus. Not to mention the big buzz that goes on and on and on . 8)

It's opposite for me. I can't use loose at home otherwise my wife would complain. Who wants to kiss someone with a bunch of loose tobacco stuffed in their lip anyway? lol i can't blame her. I prefer the portions anyway. The loose tobacco has a weird texture to me however i do love the taste much more. i ordered a couple cans of loose. They deserve a fair chance. I think i just need to get used to it. I never really used smokeless tobacco until a month ago when i quit smoking. I work in construction and most guys dip skoal or copenhagen. At least in my local. I've been trying to turn some of my union brothers onto snus but they've been unresponsive to say the least. One of them spit the goteborg's portion out immediately and accused me of slipping him a teabag as a joke. LOL Snus and chewing tobacco are like cigarettes and cigars. It's definitely not the same thing.

lol since i got my cans i've used 1/3rd a can of onyx and almost an entire can of skruf and a couple pouches of gustavus maxi(weakest stuff ive tried so far, it tastes good, kinda like onyx but with less salt, but it's seriously weak.)its strange how long a can of snus lasts compared to a can of dip. btw guys, ive stayed clean from dip since i got my snus. ill never dip again.(unless im in a horrible jam and w/o snus)
