SNUS Variety Tin?

[elothen]

OK, I'm extremely new to SNUS but from a lot of reading it's become apparent to me that half the joy of SNUS is the variety. A Sterk in the morning, regular/white mid morning, maybe something minty after lunch, etc. etc.

Then looking at the realities of transportation to work or wherever you're going in a day the desire to carry multiple different portions seems clear. I was thinking a rugged tin separated into compartments would be ideal for this. Each compartment would hold 3-4 portions so you could easily build up a variety pack all in one tin and keep them from getting mixed up (and minimize flavor contamination between them.

Anyone know of such a container for SNUS?

Can't find the link, but some people would cut up a credit card and make dividers and use those in a snus can. I tried it once way back in the day, it kept them separated, but the flavors all mixed together. Now I just carry a couple of tins with catch lids that I fill with other flavors. When I go to work I take a ziploc bag that has about 5 cans in it. I work in an office, so we have a fridge. I take one ziploc bag that has random snuff in it, and just keep it in my lunch box.

Yeah, I hear you. Carrying around 3+ tins of tobacco doesn't work for me at all.

What I do is carry, at most, one tin of loose and some small plastic bags with different portions in them. This takes care of the flavor contamination thing, and you can take exactly what you need, and leave the rest in the freezer to stay fresh and frosty.

Plastic bags are cheap, effective and unobtrusive in one's pockets, so its what works for me. And I mean the really small ones, like smaller than "snack size". Think "illicit drug sized".

seriously dude, i hear you. and i think its a pretty good idea. but in my honest to goodness opinion, id say try and get in the habit of using one can at a time. trust me, once you open a can, its starts to expire at a quicker rate. if you have a handful of open cans, a couple days later, youll be stuck with a bunch of severely dry and crappy tasting portions. or loose snus..

if your brand new to snus and havent found your all day long snuses yet. maybe you can through a few cans in your briefcase or lunch box..

edit: see post above. very good idea.

Here's a thread showing how to make a divider. Check the last post for pics.

You could easily make it out of cardboard too...
