From cigs to snus to vaping. Back to my beloved snus!

[AFSmoker]

Hello good people. I started using snus back in the good ol' pre PACT days (June 2009). I made a few posts here on the forum but was never too active. I am surprised my account is still active. Well, the high price of shipping and being stationed overseas unfortunately ultimately made snus impractical. I bought my last can about two years ago as I transitioned to ecigs. Started with the gas station disposable types then started getting in bigger and better Vaping devices/mods and all that stuff. Finally I got fed up with all the hassle of faulty equipment, cleaning and replacing coils, occasional dry hits.

The time and money I was putting into this was getting excessive. I missed the simple days of putting a portion in and just enjoying it. I'm currently living in the Philippines and thought I'd try my luck ordering some snus. I ordered four rolls of portions (never got into the los). I got General classic, Ettan, Skruff Tranbar, and a new one for me, Byron. I just received my order with no customs issues and popped in a General. Man, that wonderful aroma and taste brings back some fond memories. So glad to be back to my old friend Snus!

Hello AFSmoke. It's good to have you back!

Cool I did the same thing. I have been off snus for 1 month, now I vape. I was tired of paying $18 for a can of General every two days, and when I ordered online customs would just slap me in the face. I would love to go back to snus, but there is no way to justify $9 a day... Vaping is costing me about $50 a month instead of over $200.

Wow chibre, I can definitely see why you made the switch. And I thought I was spending a lot. I was fortunate to not get hit by customs with my most recent snus order. Four rolls including shipping set me back $138, so $3.45 a can. I can't complain. Truthfully I did enjoy the vaping experience. The vast types of devices and seemingly unlimited juice flavors was definitely fun. That said, now that I've been back on suns exclusively, I am satisfied with my decision. When I vaped, even with high nicotine juice I craved the very occasional smoke. Now that I'm snusing again I can feel a more steady stream of nicotine and have no desire to smoke anymore. I do have two bottles of e-juice (a new sour apple flavor and blueberry cheesecake) sitting unopened in the cabinet. One of these days I might just bust them out and enjoy the new treat. For now I'm elated to be back to snus. Isn't it great we have options

Wow, very pricey for snus....smuggling may be in order?
