Any Smokeless tobacco users?

Ole faithful is Grizzly mint, but every once in a while i have to change it up for a can or two so Ill do Skoal cherry or berry blend. I need to stop, a can a day at 3 bucks = $1000+

 

Skoal Citrus is no more.

Skoal Xtra Crisp Blend is pretty good though.

Grizz Wintergreen when I want something with a little more power.

 

just got a tin of skoal extra mint....that stuff is tasty!

 

I'm still hooked on cope long cut.... i buy a can of something different maybe once a month jus to change up but i love the CLC

 

bought a tin when i stopped to get gas on sunday...put it on the side of my taco bed as i went to pump gas....knocked it off...and all the dip went on the ground...had to buy another tin...damn gas stations! lol

 

pa is the way to go! were run a special two cans of cope for like 5 something, hell our cope wintergreen was 89 cents the other day at our store!

pa man is only a step away! its between pa,nc and wv are the three major states for smokeless tobacco testin because of the high numbers of dip sales.

so i was out in clearfield pa....stopped at a gas station and picked up some kayak wintergreen and some husky wintergreen....the husky is shit (cant pack it) way too dry.....the kayak wasnt bad but both get a B for rating lol

also got some skoal cherry....figured i never seen the flavor so id try it....yea tastes like robatussin cough syrup...i mean if your into that go for it...as for me...that will go to a homeless bum ha

 

reading that i remembered something i thought i would share. a how-to installment for smokeless users lol.

-if you buy an American Snuff Co. can (grizzly, kodiak, and i think Hawkins as well) many people don't know how to date it or see if they are buying a fresh can because there is no obvious date on it.
the way you do it on those cans is by the last 2 numbers and digits. what you do is you look at the last letter and you apply the month. A is January, B is February so on and so on. the only kink in that is there is no I, skip I. so for an entire year the letter's will be A-M. A for January, M for December. The number at the end is for the year. if it's a 0, it was made in 2010. if it's a 1 it was made in 2011.
I.E. the can i have now says on the back - T0187D106D1

so D- April
and 1 - 2011.
and that's when the can was made.

if you can get a can that is made within the past 30-45 days you're doing good.
ive just noticed over the years that some stores don't rotate out their product and someone told me this years ago and ive checked every can and i swear its exactly right.
just a little fyi, hope it helps!

 

nice thanks for the heads up....u usually do buy american (skoal and cope) which both say it on the bottom of the tin...but im a sucker when i see something i havent had and i gotta buy it so il start checking now!

 

soooo. had a whoopss si daisy yesterday.

bought a brand new can of skoal citrus (hadnt had it in a while) opened it pack a lil lip seeing i was gonna be home in a lil....

well traffic was BRUTAL trying to get home so i went to put more in. went to pack the tin and the effing plastic was cracked (guessing from when i bought it 5 minutes prior) and when i did it broke the rest of the way and the dip went EVERYWHERE in my TACO!!!! not happy. i a whole tin was wasted and i had to clean my truck and that stuff is hard to get out of nooks and crannies!

 

Ouch...that SUCKS!!! I'm still afraid to open a tin in my new '11 for that reason. I always stop...still too new, lol. That'll change soon enough.

 

Copenhagen! It's what I started with and nothing else seems to satisfy quite the same, imho.

 

yea i USUALLY always pull over or pack it before getting in for the same reason...always makes a mess. but since i was in traffic...yea...needless to say i pulled over right after ha

 

Hope it all come out all right. Good thing is, dip-stain removes fairly easily My wife doesn't care for that excuse too much however when the kids accidently knock over my hidden cup

 

lol, that's a bummer. i never have trouble putting one in while driving. i don't do the middle school pull out the lip and gently place it in thing. just - knee on the wheel, two hands on the can, squeeze one together and toss it in like a piece of candy. then you slide it where you need it. that always grosses my friends out lol. . . .but about a vehicle accident, when i was 16 or 17 i was on my way home one day and i was still hiding it from the folks. i was about 2 miles from home and had a pinch in on the left side. i grabbed it with my right had and flung it out the passenger window. . . .except i had just rolled up the window and it hit the window and exploded in my jeep lol, not pretty.

 

skoal bandits wintergreen, no mess

 

Chewing is nasty

 

Anyone own a Mudjug?
