Ugh...

snusme has adjusted their site to no longer allow tobacco products to be placed in your shopping cart (not available in your region). Snusdaddy waits until you attempt to put it in your cart (We don't ship products containing tobacco to your country, adjust your cart or visit snusdaddy.eu to see available products for your region and checkout!). Snusdirect (We are currently experience problems with our Swedish snus shipments. However, we are able to ship orders with nicotine pouches.).

It seems someone, somewhere, has directed a crackdown.

With Phillip Morris' purchase of Swedish Match, I have to wonder if there's some shenanigans going on in the background. We're able to get General Mint here in the US, but at double the price of what we'd pay direct from Sweden. Something smells and it isn't my feet.

    I did a test and got all the way to putting in my CC info to finalize the purchase. If y'all are gonna do it, do it quick before that door closes, too.
    If they had anything I wanted then I would. I have 6 rolls of Kapten mint and strong mint and two rolls of catch on top of my freezer stock so I won’t run out any time soon but it is a bit of a pain having to add flavor to them so I can stand to use them.

    I got an email response from snusme and the way they stated the response was that they aren’t shipping ups because the shipments are being delayed. They mentioned shipping PostNord but when I go through checkout it just says they won’t ship the snus. It doesn’t give a postnord option.

    I think the door is closed on Snus orders from overseas, and I'm not sure about the nicotine pouches. Reading some on USPS, and it looked like they treat nicotine pouches the same as Snus and tobacco products. I guess I'll find out with my order from Snus24. On a good note I already got the Postnord tracking number, it has not been picked up yet, but should be today.

    I had kind of forgotten about it but have a roll of lundgrens vastkusten in my mini freezer that snuscentral sent to me by mistake and let me keep. I tried a few portions out of one can when I first got it and didn’t like it. Tonight I needed to make room for some snus in the freezer and found it so popped open a can to try it again. Definitely not an all day snus but might be able to make use of some. It’s a little floral which I don’t usually care for but tonight it seems ok.

    I’m getting curious if @retired1 ever got his order with the odens?

    With licorice, salmiak, does not sound very good to me.

    It’s not a favorite but I might be able to use some instead of tossing it. I had ordered a different lundgrens but they shipped the wrong roll and said keep it.

    I had that happen in 2021 with some General White they sent me by mistake. I just sent it to Waho because I knew I would not use it because it had bergimont in it.

    I had never heard anyone on here mention using lundgrens so just threw it in the freezer and forgot about it. I had six rolls from two orders and wanted to get the two rolls from my last order in there but with the bottles of 100mg nic there just wasn’t room for everything so I needed to clear out anything I don’t think I’ll use. I still have a couple cans of thunder raspberry in there from years ago that I’ve saved for special occasions.

    Funny you should mention Thunder Raspberry, I just took a can out this morning, still had 4 cans (now 3 1/2) in the freezer. I vacuum sealed 10 pouches and put back in the freezer. It is from 2018 by the date on the vacuum bag. Not a special occasion, but it has been a LONG time since I had any and was just wanting to take a trip down memory lane.

    Getting to the US was faster than I thought, it says it's at ISC New York, NY USPS today. No mention of customs, so it has me a little confused on that note. But if it arrives as they are currently saying, that's 1 week, which would be awesome, but I'm not holding my breath.

    Trying something with the Super Dry pouches. The Thunder Raspberry is VERY wet pouches, I didn't remember that as it has been a while since I opened a can. So I lined the bottom of a can with Super Dry pouches, then layered the 1/2 can of Thunder Raspberry on top of them, then put another layer of Super Dry pouches on top of them, then took the smaller top lid upside down and pressed them to squeeze the extra moisture into the Super Dry pouches. I am hoping it will flavor them. Don't know, just another experiment on flavoring Super Dry pouches.

    I'll keep my fingers crossed for your order to arrive quickly.

    Yeah, I was pleasantly surprised with that aspect. Now? It's dragging. It's been at the Coppell Tx distribution center since yesterday.

    Did your order tracking say anything about going through customs at any point? That part has me confused, unless it goes through it at a later part of delivery.
