    My first snus convert

    So after almost 2 years, I have my first snus convert. A local guy I deal with for my work was here last week, and he started asking about my snus. So I explained what it was, and he asked to try one.

    Today, he called me and said he had been meaning too all week. He rides a motorcycle like me, and he said that he rode around doing errands for a week with the snus in, and he didn't think about a cigarette again until long after he got home. So he wanted to know if he could come by tomorrow so I could show him how I get it.

    I told him I would do one better and have a supply waiting for him when he comes by. I have a new order coming in the next few days so I can give up 4 cans or so. Gotta make sure I don't give him anything strange. Maybe a Knox, a Nick & Johnny, a Mocca plus and whatever else I have left over.

    I am so excited though. Never before has anyone "liked" my snus. Not much of a computer guy, but will show him the forum anyways. he is on my concrete forum, so he does forums a little bit already.

    Congratulations! I have yet to turn anyone into a consistent snuser. My friends like them but don't want to deal with the hassle of ordering online. I try to tell them how easy it is but they are thick. I think if just one brand of snus, say general, was available at a lot of gas stations or even just tobacco shops it would become wildly popular. I imagine and hope it will become more readily available in America.

      I think it is great as well that you have some converts. I am surprised, that you being such an extrovert, I mean look at how many frickin posts you got, that you have not gotten more converted over to the snus side. Hell, if I lived next door to you I probably would have been converted quite easily by your love for snus. I had two snus converts months ago...yet that was easy because I talk way too much as it is. Sagedil, keep the snus lovers/converts coming. As, you know most a lot of my posts are in jest, but I have to say that I look forward to your posts everytime I read them.

      Cheers!

        I have to agree with Slydel. I do look forward to your posts Sagedil. And Slydel, you are making alot of sense in your posts also lately. Are you feeling well?



        hell, as hard as I try I just can't get a true convert to snus. Except my buddy in texas. But I don't count him as a convert cus he won't buy snus. He gets coupons for camel snus and thats all he uses currently. But he has to use 3 or 4 camel at portions at a time to make it worthwhile.
        Grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to hide the bodies of the people I killed because they were annoying......





        I've been wrong lots of times.  Lots of times I've thought I was wrong only to find out that I was right in the beginning.

          F you. I try to give good advice when I can give it...and have some fun. I think that we are much alike in that respect considering the posts I have seen from you. Glad to see you are here!

          Too bad about your friend not willing to convert to the real thing. I buy all my converts their snus at buysnus.com at cost. Hmmmm.... my benefit is my 6th roll at half price. I have told them that too. I do feel much better that they are using a better nic alternative.

            So Sagedil, what snus did you first give your buddy that won him over? I'm trying to nudge some Mocca+ on my secretary who relapsed to cigs recently after 24 yrs off them.

              sweet man, Ive been tryin to convert people for a while now. I think that I have won over my brother to using snus, I have given him about 4 cans so far, and he enjoys it, but thinks that its kind of a pain to order. So....he gets a portion mix from buysnus for Christmas this year!

                It was a lucky strike white, if I remember correctly
