Hey all. First topic I've posted here.
So I've been psyched about trying snus, but like most things "new", St. Louis is the last place to see it. I called 15 different cigar/tobacco shops, with most of the answers to, "Do you carry snus?" being "I'm sorry, what?". One place told me "Oh yeah, not until March." MARCH!?!?
Well I found a QuickTrip right by my house (8815 Page Ave
Overland, MO 63114 314.429.3738) has a small Camel SNUS fridge today (looked like they only had 2 tins left.) I know I know, Camel SNUS is comparatively weak & candy-like compared to real Swedish snus, but at least it exists. I think I payed at least $4.50 for 2 tins of the "smooth" flavor, which is outrageous considering the limp-wristed-ness of Camel SNUS, but again, it's the only place I've actually seen any kind of "snus" being sold, so I thought I'd pass it along here.
I have ordered 5 tins of General Portion from Northener.com, so I should be trying real snus soon.
For now, I've had 1 bag of Camel SNUS in for about 1/2 hr. Still wanting a cig. Maybe I'll do 2 bags next time. It's still 1000 times better than vile dip!
