Getting Snus in a local store...

[resnor]

So, I live in a college town...there is a store right next to the main campus that has an extensive tobacco section. They don't carry Swedish snus...but are familiar with General, as a Swedish hockey player for the school had some that he showed them. Perhaps the manufacturers present on the forum would contact them, and try to get Swedish snus in the store?

Shoot the tobacco store's info to rickcharles606. He will contact them and get them set up with Northerner's US distribution.

He just hooked up my store. Should be able to special order from them in a few weeks....even if they don't carry it in store I will save a bunch on shipping.

I might as well do that too, specially with stupid maryland banning mail orders, not that it will stop me though

Sweet!! Thanks for the info!!

Yep, I contacted Rick and he said he would contact my local cigar store, who already carry General but I stopped by yesterday with and gave the owner a contact sheet listing all the brands that would be available. He just he's very interested in opening up the snus collection.

I even offered to help maintain their website and help advertise Swedish snus on their site, he said that sounds great.

I would like to see that happen a lot more. On the one hand snus will end up costing more and the risk of not being able to get it on line is there but that is something we are dealing with anyway. Freedom from smoking and all the garbage that comes with it that affects people and their families is why I tell so many people about snus and even though most people don't listen to a word I say the occasional person that you see a month later that tells you they made their first order makes it worth it.

I, personally, would murder to have Kremer's Smoke Shop in Louisville, KY carry more than just General and American snus. Nothing wrong with the General, but sometimes a man doesn't like to mail order certain brands if he can pop down the street for them. Other than that...what are the odds of duplicating the gas station sales in Ohio elsewhere?

Dittio here....like I have posted before I have to drive 20 miles to the Tinder Box at the mall to get near expired General products. One would think if you could get a local shop to start carrying a modest selection it would be much easier to spread the word too since you only have to tell them "Head down the road a couple miles to Tobacco Shop XYZ and pick up a tin" versus "Check out Northerner and (depending on where you live) you may have to pay hellacious amounts of taxes plus significant shipping but its worth it, trust me "
