    What the bill will do, is require sellers to collect and remit the appropriate tobacco taxes on purchases to the states. However, I to am concerned it might lead to a total shutdown, for instance, if Northerner or Buysnus decided it would cost too much money to collect and remit taxes to the states. That's one reason I am growing my own.

    If nothing else we do have time to do as you indicate, buy and freeze! What brands have you found so far that you're enjoying?
    I sure hope there is hope cuz if I had to choose between ecig and snus I would rather have snus by far. As 4 flavors being a complete noob at this stuff I had np idea what a white portion was or what general or any of that stuff. Dredbull posted a list of flavors to try and I ordered a bunch of his suggestions they haven't come in yet. So right now I have white portion licorice and General tob flav love both of them actually other than Camel mellow I like every flav Ive tryed. I sure wish there was a way to tell if these bills are going to pass or not as I would much rather use fresh stuff than have to freeze it.

    try lucky strike snus. camel and philip morris also make a swedish snus that are very tasty. check out buysnus.com or the northerner. (dot net/dot com???)

    i snused for my first couple months with my ecig. now with my 510 and my kr808, i'm tobacco freee!

    Nasal snuff might help you as well. Toque sells trial size bullets.

    might seem strange, but its better than smoking a cigarette!

    Based on what others have said I'm going to figure I've got a little time to play with still. A little more time to try a few additional brands to better get an idea of what I might like to have in stock. It's hard to imagine doin' away with the vape entirely but agreed, snus certainly holds it's own for nic satisfaction.

    I'm given to understand that if the snus can's are well sealed, air-sealed, that they keep for some time frozen. Anyone have any insights on long term storage?

    Going to do a multi can order of my stand by staples. Odens, onyx and skruf.

    Considering picking up a few cans of loose for home time.

    Picking up loose from northerner montecristo, and a couple others that get snus does not have.

    Oden's kanel and extra sterk, claq qui, and skruf cranberry as my staples. along with a few other loose. Just cannot beat the prices with get snus and willhave to beg them NOT to ups it.

    Dredbull let us know if getsnus is willing to forgo UPS on larger orders. I'm 'bout ready to graduate to rolls myself.

    Like snus I like a choice.

    My discreet and grov has not really been touched. Claq and odens and onyx got destroyed.

    Found morning and after meals the claq was NICE, odens for the more rougher rides I needed and onyx was a pop in and forget about it. Also the skruf cranberry has grown on me.

    I am just stocking up a bit to tail me through dec. If that bill passes and before it takes effect I will load myself down.

    I'm kinda debating if I should get a 510 or not. I hear they give a much better throat hit than my 901 but really I don't think these ecigs deliver much nic at all.

    Managed to tame the Mocca macchiato by wrapping it in an empty (new) teabag. this toned down the juice rush nicely, with a bit of mouth breathing too. Still needed to drink coffee with it though to avoid the beginnings of heartburn and there was a few minutes of syrup of figs taste to endure. But it has now settled to a pleasant coffee flavour and I will be able to enjoy my 2 tins of it!
    So if a snus is a bit heavy, there is some point in wrapping it in an empty teabag!

    Best,

    C.
