Seeing as there's a thread about buying cigarettes online - does anyone know where you can buy snus on the net?

Is that just snuff from sweden then? Cause snuff is ****in horrid. Burns the bleedin nose of ya for a short while, and leaves a funny taste/smell. Don't know how anyone can do it.

Not quite. It comes in little bags that you put up under your upper lip beside your gum. I know some Danes who think its great as a stimulant and I've tried it a few times - but as a non-smoker the sudden hit of nicotene almost flattened me.

yeah, i have a mate who went to sweeden for a few days last year. he got some of that stuff and brought it back. he was always trying to give some to me but it just looked so nasty. he had some himself. didnt look good...

I think smoking is bad. But I lived with a swedish guy that used leave the used bags ever where. Sick TBH.

Friend of mine returned from Sweeden recently with a tin.

It's not in bags and therefore rather messy.

When combined with ethanol it's unusual stuff. Makes one feel like god for two minutes... right before you crash (though not too hard). Although I imagine if you were a smoker the nicotine buzz was be somewhat reduced.

Can't say I'm too interested in trying it again - but two of my mates love the stuff hence the query.

Apparently, they used to put fine glass into the bags too so that there would be some light cuts on your gum allowing even quicker entry to the bloodstream. Crazy what some people do!
