    brainstorming SnusX idea

    I just had an idea. V2 should make a snus X mini and snus X mini strong. Sell it with 1000 .5 gram portions and a lot of people who like mini portions but not the price might buy it. I know that's the main reasons I don't buy minis is because they cost the same as portion and los and aren't as potent.

    That's a pretty good idea.

      I would buy a SnusX mini bucket.

      Hell, I'd buy five.

        The problem with that is one of the major cost of portion snus is making the portion. You can't expect to get 1000 mini portions. That would be like getting 48 mini portions per can. It might be a nice day dream for a mini user but it's not gonna happen. If I where a mini user I would be happy to get 450 (or what ever it is) portions per bucket. It would still be a great deal.

          True minis are unique because people who use them often use less snus, but I think that's partially because of the pricing. Doing one thousand was just an idea because I think it sounds appealing. You could reflect that in the cost by charging two or three dollars more and it would still be a good deal. You could also do the normal amount but that would take away some of the cost saving appeal that's the whole idea behind SnusX so it wouldn't appeal to people as much. Besides if you offered 48 mini portions in a can a lot of people would buy it at say a 60 percent higher price.

            The current SnusX only have 0.5g of tobacco per portion. Like a mini in a large pouch. I've begun pniching one end of the pouch and shaking all the tobaccy to one end and folding.

            Curious how they claim it has 8mg of nic, yet only 0.5g of tobaccy...i dunno...

              Your comment made me curious, so I got out my digital scale and several portions. Weights of the 5 portions I measured were 0.6 g, 0.7 g, 0.8 g, and 2 at 0.9 g. That would average to 0.78 g per portion.

              Those are dry weights. Once water & flavoring are added, they'll weigh more.

                It's 8mg/g so that would be 4mg per portion if they are in fact 0.5gs.

                  According to Northerner: "8mg/portion"

                  The bucket says 240 grams and there were ~480 portions inside, so 0.5g/portion

                    Wow, I am not thinking straight today, maybe I should stop "testing" all these different cans I got open...
                    Ugh, this isn't the first thing to confuse me tonight...haha. Too much going on, I need a couch ice cream and hockey, mindless enough....

                    Sorry for my confusion

                      They just came out with a los snusx, so I can still dream that they release a strong mini kit!! I'm not sure it would be a huge money maker for V2, but they would gain me as a #1 fan! I enjoy experimenting with the snusx portions but those suckers are just too big for out and about use for me.
