    Marlboro sent me a letter.. You won't believe it

    I checked my mail tonight and got a letter from Marlboro stating..

    "Give us your two cents and we'll give you 50 bucks. It'll only take an hour of your time. Spots are limited. RSVP now."

    It gives a local address and dates, next Sunday, Monday, Tuesday. It's being held locally here in San Antonio. But here's the kicker. I think it's about their "snus". There's a pic of the Marlboro rich. I hope to hell I can get a spot because I'm going to tell them everything wrong with their product. I'm bringing a can of Thunder, General, Goteborgs to show them what real snus is. It isn't about the money (it doest hurt though). I'm going to say what we all have been saying in the threads about their crap. I won't be an ass about it but I will give them some advice. I can only go Sunday do to work but if I get in I promise I'll represent SnusOn!

      No doubt.. I'll call tommorow but probably won't get in because their giving 50 bucks a head. I haven't checked the mail in a few days so no telling how long it's been there. I wish I still had some general samplers I'd hand them out to everyone.. Probably get kicked out lol

          yea blame the Iphone
          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.

            I have been participating on a snus survey that mails me small checks from time to time. What I can't understand is why manufacturers feel the need to spend all this money trying to find the perfect snus when we already have it available? The first American tobacco company to import real Swedish snus and sell it for a decent price wins!

              +1 I'm in that study to. I swear they keep asking me the same questions. No wonder Camel snus sucks. They're putting their resources in all the wrong places.

                          American "snus" is all overkill with extreme sweetness and flavor. They don't understand subtlety, and allowing tobacco taste.
                          I think if all the crappy American "snus" was way toned down with it sweetness and "flavor", they might not be too bad.

                          They seem to think it won't be "good" if it's not extremely sweet, and highly flavored. Yet this is the total opposite of real scandinavian snus.

                            Yea, Americans don't smoke because it tastes sweet?!? Why mess with the snus.

                              Well, I know my smoker friends did not like the Scandinavian snus I offered them, yet I see them occasionally with a Camel or Marlboro snus.

                              Actually, I think Scandinavian snus may be an aquired taste for one not acclimated to it, and so they "like" the harsh sweet tastes of the US stuff.

                              I think if they could bridge that gap, with maybe a hybrid snus, it might be better, for all of us.
