    Status of Your Pre PACT Stash?

    For those of you who were around before PACT, did you stock up; and, if yes, what is the current level of your Pre PACT stash? As for myself, I'm down to about 15%... which means I just placed an order. The new prices and shipping really suck! Care to comment?

    I am at about 30% of my pact stash....and everything I have has been discontinued so I am really not looking forward to a new order as what I really want doesn't exist anymore.

    I also still have a few tins of Odens extreme and a lone tin of phantom los but they were purchased post pact.

      Hard to say, but I think I have about 2 years of lös left, and perhaps another 2 years of portions if I were to use them exclusively. IOW, I could go about 4 years without buying snus :^)

        Yea... I hear ya. I have a ton of snus that is no longer in production. I really like the new GN snus... I think their extreme is TO STRONG for everyday use; however, some of the lower nic offerings are great!

          GN has a lot of promise, but I can't use most of their lössnus. The milder stuff they have is portions, and while I enjoy them, I'm not big on portions.

              I started out with 4 rolls. I only have 1 tin remaining. I'm saving it for a special occasion... just like a fine bottle of wine or Cuban cigar

                I never had Claq Qui....and none of my snus will be parted with. I am sure you will hear the wail of anguish when I open my last tin of gul.

                  I have a single can of Claq Qui and about ten cans of various portions left over from the pre-PACT hoarding.

                  The other day tested pre-PACT General Ekstra Sterk against recently ordered General Extra Strong and couldn't notice any difference other than small can design changes. Same for Onyx.

                  This has given me a lot of confidence to stock up on brands I like when there are good sales.

                    Still got a couple rolls and I cut those half and half with my homegrown which makes it into 4 rolls. A can last me 6 days so my Pre-PACT stash has me covered at least till spring.

                    I'm using a can of my 2009 Kardus now.

                      4 rolls? Ouch. These days I order that every 2 months. My PACT stash lasted me about 2.5 months lol. You conservationists are a trip.

                        Mine's gone now too. I finished it in July (i think) and ordered more. I'm about half way through that order now too.

                        I'm in the same boat with having a single can of Claq Qui left...Ahh, I look at the can every time I pull another one out of the freezer. Maybe during the holidays...ha ha, we should have a group snus and discussion in real time. It would be like a round-table...and a memorial of sorts.

                          That was just the Claq Qui portion of my stash! I had 4 rolls of many other brands. About 15 percent of my stash is los, which I have stopped using. I may be having a "Fire Sale" on some los in the future

                            I still have a ton of snus, and I have been doling out some classics to those who run out, I actually have enjoyed being able to send Claq, or gul, or montecristo to those who love them. Before you guys besiege me, the Gul and Claq all went to good, deserving, homes. Half my stash is Grov Portions, and I have been fighting a change in tastes that has made me use a lot less of them, I got on a wicked Ettan kick.

                            I have been fortunate to trade the classics for Lucky's, which I failed to develop a taste for in time to stock up. I still love my Pact stash, although it gets on the wife's nerves, she thinks that I bought that chest freezer for pot roasts. I wish I had bought more, but at the time I was broke as hell. The best part was when that company in Texas, forget the name, panicked and dumped all thier Grov OP for a dollar a can. I got piggy on that one!
                            wiki "Popcorn Sutton" a true COOT!

                              I finished off my pre-PACT stash last March, 2011.. It consisted of about 9rolls los and portions. would of lasted me alot longer if i hadnt lost my liscence and job because of d.u.i. I went a long period of time without placing any orders and used the whole stash up... My last can of Claq Qui's.. was December 2010. I held out on them ones, the last of the portions i had was them 5 cans i saved. then I had about 27 cans of los that I made last me till March, when I got a new job. Now Im driving and working again and still stocking up somewhat.. cause you never know what can happen and
                              i like having a good stock of my favorites.
