    How many Can(s) do you bring on a vacation??

    We all have the same problem. We like our vitamin N. I have to resist the urge that when I go away for the weekend or that week away from home, not to bring every can I own! Maybe while I am away I will crave a flavor to realize I forgot that can....

    What do you do???

    I take about 6 different kinds. I don't go anywhere for more than a weekend, so that's just 6 tins. If I were going longer, I'd pack enough to last the required time assuming I only use 1 flavor. Example... I use about 2 tins of snus per week. If I went on a week long trip, I'd take about 12 tins(2 of each flavor). That way I could use 1 flavor if I chose to, and would have enough for the whole week.

      Something similar,

      I basically bring double what my daily need is. So typical, about 12 portions a day now, so if I am going for 7 days, I would bring 7 cans.

      Partly out of a pathological fear of running out, partly in case I suddenly feel compelled to try something different.

      In the end, I just think I don't like leaving my stash, so bring as much as possible with me.

        I store my open snus in 2 medium sized ziplock bags in the fridge, one los and one portion. 5 cans fit perfectly in each bag as a half-roll at the bottom. I put the bag of 5 portions in my backpack everyday when I go to work or if I leave for more than a day. For 3 to 10 days, I'd throw a can of los in there too and call it good. If it were two weeks or more I would bring 6 or 7 lol. I find that selection is less of an issue when away from home and all the variety, but its always nice to have if there's room to carry it.

          When I go out of town, I make it a point to book a room with a fridge. Then I can bring as many as I like. I did have one instance last spring where I booked a room that I thought came with a fridge, but once I got there I realized that it did not. I like my snus cold, so I kept it in the ice bucket. :lol:

            I keep between 8 and 10 open cans in a plastic bag in the fridge. If I'm going anywhere away from that fridge and staying at least a day or two, I will bring everything.

                Probably just one can for the road.
                If I need more I guess I would buy some.

                  I take one can per day. I use 12 or so portions a day, but you never know what might happen. I'd rather be over-prepared than under.

                    Seems like many of us here in the US horde cans, or have a stock of some type, but I'd guess people in Sweden would not.

                      I have a vacation coming up, and will probably take 4 tins for 5 days. Not concerned with taking a variety, but just ensuring that I have enough for whatever may happen.

                        I don't remember ever feeling the need to stock up on cigarettes when I traveled before. I suspect that is what it is like for the Swede's. :wink:

                          I agree with Sagedil, it is like a pathological fear of running out!

                          You know here in the USA it is hard to find Swedish Snus. I have only found General in the Village in New York City. A few well stocked tobacconists have General too. But, go out of town and you may as well get used to Camel Mellow and the like....Yuk....Bring More Cans!!

                            bigbuyer, where are you from in jersey?


                            But to answer the question, I'm going on a weekend trip this week, so I will be bringing 2 wintergreens, 1 camel white, 1 elyxr (usually only 1 per morning), 1 roda lacket (which i have in now actually), and 1 eurpocylpe (however its spelt). So 6. But only for variety, I know I could survive on wintergreen and camel white alone.
