    I'm saving my northerner points up for this baby!

    I'm sure I'm the only n00b that hasn't noticed this by now, but I'd really love to have this sitting next to my computer!

    Personally, I've got my eye on the Icetool.

        I'm saving my points for a single can of snus. Remember 'back in the day' when a single can went for what...50 or 60 points??? Those were the good ol' days.

          when they first started the points at northerner it cost a lot less to get stuff. i wrote a testimonial for tons of stuff to get something like 10 points for each review. then i bought some stuff and grew my points some more. then northerner jacked up how many points it cost to buy stuff to the tune of 2-3 times as much as before. it has left a bad taste in my mouth. not saying i wont buy from them because i still do but it's like changing the rules of a ballgame after the other team gets ahead.



          Consider this example. Buy a can of Odens Extra Stark Portions and you get 10 bonus points.
          If you use your bonus points to buy a can of the same snus it will cost you 149 bonus points.
          Northerner single can price: $3.48

          Buy one can and get 1.5 GRAMS free.
          Buy a roll and get 15.1 GRAMS free.
          Buy 1.5 rolls and get one can free.
          Buy 15 rolls and get one roll free.


          Money spent at Northerner upfront to get a roll of free snus: $522.00 USD

          30 packages of 5 cans each. Shipping cost (for me roughly) $5 each package.
          30 * $5 = $150 shipping cost.

          Total: $672
          Spent per free can: $67.20

          ------------------------------

          Buysnus.com gives half price on the 6th roll.
          Iow, buy 10 rolls and get a roll free.
          Buysnus single can price: $4.03

          Money spent at Buysnus upfront to get a roll of free snus: $403.00 USD

          20 packages of 5 cans each. Shipping cost (for me roughly) $5 each package.
          20 * $5 = $100 shipping cost.

          Total: $503
          Spent per free can: $50.30

          ------------------------------

          Getsnus.com gives a free can for orders of 5 cans or more.
          Iow, buy 5 rolls get a roll free.
          Getsnus single can price: $3.25

          Money spent at Getsnus upfront to get a roll of free snus: $162.00 USD

          10 packages of 5 cans each. Shipping cost $2.95 each package.
          10 * $2.95 = $29.5 shipping cost.

          Total: $191.50
          Spent per free can: $19.15

          ------------------------------

          This assumes one always buys 5 cans of the same type snus per order.
          There are other variables such as who sells the freshest snus. Who provides the best customer service and who don't. Who has the certain brand of snus in stock and who don't.

          I have bought from them all. If i had to pick just one place to buy my snus it would be buysnus.com. But northerner and getsnus have their good points as well.

          I was board ;-)

                that is just a front for northerner. it costs 400 points, i have 60. i dont think you can buy it anywhere.

                its all good though. im already getting hooked up with a hat thanks to one of our generous snuson brethren.

                    Snuso now that's some damn fine math figuring you did there. Really put the whole thing in perspective. $50, $67 dollars for one lousy can don't seem to be much of a bonus. But then again it might just be me. :?
                    When it's my time to go, I want to die peacefully in my sleep, like my uncle did....... Not screaming in terror like his passengers
