What to get in Sweden?

[truthwolf1]

Thanks.
If I would of known that I would of definately of made the trip. Sat in the airport for close to 4 hours!

My family went to eastern europe a couple of weeks ago on different flights and my wife purchased a can of General Sterk at the Stockholm airport for I think around 9 dollars. I connected in Copenhagen but there was no Snus there.

Not sure what a can would cost outside the airport with the exchange rate?

I wouldn´t pay more then 5 dollars, but i never buy General in the first place, avoid airports and nationwide kiosks called "Pressbyrån" very expensive.

It takes only 30 minutes by train from Copenhagen City Centre to Malmö central station. They built a bridge not long ago so you don't need to take the ferry. And as I said, train leaves from the airport itself. SO yeah, if you have an hour and a half, you could easily do it and still have 20 minutes to browse the snus.

Now for me, train to Amsterdam a bit longer. About 15 hours each way, overnight. I don't mind the time, but it is about 480 Euros. There are some low cost flights now that are probably much cheaper.

Still, train sounds too cool. And I'll be so stone on the way back from all the special munchies I get in Amsterdam, doubt I would care about much

But for me, at least, 15 hours each way on a train doesn't seem like too much just to have the pleasure of buying snus IN Sweden.

EDIT...OK, so no train for me. Flights between Copenhagen and Amsterdam - $58 each way. So take *some* of the time I would spend on a train, and spend the afternoon in Sweden. I like!!!

FYI and you ever have time, train to Sweden is like 15 minutes, goes straight from the Copenhagen airport.

I am starting to plan a possible trip to Amsterdam, but looking at flying into Copenhagen just to get some snus, then a train to Amsterdam or possible, Berlin first, then Amsterdam.

let me know, i've been thinking about a try to amsterdam/berline/europe myself. i'll tag along

I guess as many the bags allow before the seams burst, or hinges fly off?

Sorry, dont live in Stockholm so don´t know any particular places.

And what's even better is that you can be totally baked at 30,000 ft instead of ground level.

Re: In Sweden

A BLONDE and may may be some snus !!!!!!

exactly

A blonde?

Do it AMERICAN STYLE and get 3! blondes!

Sorry, couldn't get the middle of America to show white since its a white background

A google maps search for "tobak, stockholm, sverige" turns up a number of results, 641 actually. Shouldn't be too hard to wander about and find some if someone goes there. Oddly enough, snus only turns up 18 results, or so.
