    Skell, 3 or 4 a day max!!!! I'd be pulling my hair out brother lol. But seriously a trip to Sweden is the bottom line isn't it? if all avenues become closed. I'd seriously consider it, sacrifices would have to be made, but it would be worth it to get Snus.

      Lol yeah Fazer. I know i shouldn't be laughing brother, but it's either that or start crying about the situation we find ourselves in.

        I got my smoking down to about 4 or 5 a day and just continued it with snus. I am normally too busy in work to notice, i put one in then 3 or so hours later I realise I still have the portion in. Take it out, get on with it, have much, pop a snus in, go home have dinner, put a snus in afterwards, easy Few pinches of snuff in between if I remember and jobs a goodun.

          Man, i never had that control when i was on the cigs. I guess it's just willpower and practise to get your usage down isn't it. After about 40 - 50 mins i'd take out my used Snus and throw another in, everytime.

              Congratulations man. It's great to see another Snuser beat the smokes. Well done.

                When I was at uni I used to smoke 60 a day, I had the time then and you could smoke in pubs, restaurants etc so it was much easier. I cut down as I was too busy with work, didn't have the time to smoke, when I did I either chained it or had 1 and didn't finish it. Got to the point where price did it for me and my supply of cheap fags dried up, then snus made a wonderful appearance

                  Yeah the price of cigarettes is phenomenal alright. It definitely is a good incentive to cut down. for me though it was the health issues that was foremost in my mind and finally pushed me to find a way to quit. Having said that though, when i did smoke i always found time to nip off and have a few drags, work or no work lol.

                      I used to smoke more at work when there were people I could go out with, then two friends moved on, so no smoking partners and I just ended up stopping in work (I remember the days when you could smoke in the office! Where I first started you were allowed to smoke in your own office, then they had a smoking room then nothing, outside or nothing).

                          Was never a big pipe smoker or cigars, after having one I always ended up wanting a cigarette! lol

                            I did that for about 3 years, but it was costing way too much money when the price started going up ... and up

                                Latakia or perique were good at keeping me away from a fag, preique and virgina also good!
