    Cumberland Farms now stocking General in Massachusetts!

    I'm shocked... Cumberland Farms is now stocking a real Swedish snus brand in my area. Went and picked up a couple cans today just to see it with my own eyes. They even keep it in a special General fridge (I want one). They're carrying original, white, mint, mini mint, and wintergreen - not a bad selection... minus the dreadful wintergreen.

    I'm guessing Massachusetts is a test market, or maybe they're working on expanding. I searched around a few more states, but I didn't see any other Cumbie's that stocks it.

    I paid around $6.50 per can. Not too bad. If I bought in bulk on the internet, I would probably be paying less, but it's the convenience of it. If I ever run out, I can just stop at the store and get some, it's just easier than having to wait for that package to come.

    Anyways, just wanted to let the fellow MA snusers know there's quick way to grab a can quick if you run out and don't have the funds to make a big order.

    Wonder if this is throughout the state or only at 'select' locations (especially if fridges are supplied)?

          That's good news. I think that I drive past at least 4 Cumbies on my commute everyday. Did they have any los or was it all portions?

              Hell yeah! I hope they spread this down to NY soon, because although General might not be my favourite brand, having it available at Cumberland Farm's would cut the distance to the nearest B&M down to about 1.5 miles from over 50 miles. Would make things infinitely more convenient for me. Plus, General isn't bad, just not my favourite. On the downside, this probably means I won't be seeing any Odens at the local Cumberland in the near future. If Cumberland Farms stocked Odens ES Lakrits portions and Ettan lös, I'd be in heaven.

                      They do have los too. They accept the coupons from the general website too. What I did was print one out and make copies of them (coupons.com doesn't allow you to print more than one). Also, in each trial pack, you get a coupon for $2.50 off a can - so use the coupon for $1.00 off the trial pack and then buy a can with $2.50 off separately. The trial packs here are $1.99, so I pay 99 cents for 16 portions. I am in Taxachusetts, but I still only paid around $4.50 for a can with the coupon.

                      I did do a search on the general website for all of Massachusetts and there are A LOT of Cumby's carrying General now - looks like it stops around the Worcester area though. They're most likely expanding it to more store though. I live on Cape Cod and there are currently only 3 Cumby's that stock it, one is right on the way to my girlfriend's house though, so I can't complain. With the coupons this is turning out to be pretty cost effective and convenient.
