I know this varies greatly by individual, but I’ve been reading through back threads about how much snuff is consumed. Would saying a 10g tin lasts 2 or 3 days be about right for a moderate to heavy use snuff-taker?
That seems like a lot. I go through about 10g a week and consider myself a fairly heavy user.
10g=1 week for me. Give or take. I could see using 10g in a few days and I’m sure some do.
Yeah, sounds like really heavy use to me. I keep rotating all my snuffs so I cant really keep track. Therefore its usually quite hard to finish a tin, especially when my collection grows larger and I try not to disrespect any of them haha.
I have never emptied a tin. Though I rotate tins, and some days may not snuff. I honestly think 1 50g tin would last my lifetime.
and to think Napoleon took a kg of snuff in a week! Wasn’t that who that was? My memory isn’t what it once was…
So in terms of US users finance, we’re looking at maybe a $5.00 a week habit as opposed to $35 for 7 packs of cigs. That’s excellent! An 85% decrease in expenditure.
…and that’s probably a fairly conservative estimate!
I’ve been snuffing for about 4 years now and have yet to use more than 5g a week. This might be due in part to rotation.
I have no clue how much I take. I rotate snuffs fairly often, too. The only constant in my use is Tom Buck. I use it everyday.
I use about 15g a week on average.
Never really took the time to measure, but I’d say 0.5 to 4 grams per day.
I take about 3g a day. Stefan
With a 10 gr. tin, I think I’ll survive about 3 weeks. But I’m still smoking now, and want to give that up. Then I will use more…
when I was using mcrystals o&g exclusively I was using an extra large tin a week so that gives an indication to my use must be 25g.
Yeah 10g every 2-3 days seems like a HEAVY user. I rotate fairly regularly so it’s tough to tell. It would probably be more like 4 or 5 days. P.S. theratroom: McChrystal’s extra large tins are 21g. Perhaps when my next Toque order comes in the mail I will try this. I could definitely use only Toque Original until a 10g tin is gone.
I use barely a gram a week at most lol. The most I’ve used is 5g in 2 weeks with ozona raspberry. 3g a day seems heavy I think it partly depends on how much you use with each pinch toasts I take probably 1/5 as much as something like Gleischerpris.
Thanks for the info jazzi_mike
I filled a toque small flask about 3 weeks ago and It’ll be done either today or tomorrow. Not sure how much they hold. ( i’ve heard 7-8 grams?) But divided by 3 weeks = my average consumption per week. (7.5 / 3 = 2.5g/week.) Now that is my morning to afternoon snuff. At the end of the day I’ve got another tin on the coffee table. That is a 25 gram tin, and I must have 4-5 pinches from that every night. So maybe I average 3-4 grams per week? hows that for a math problem?
50 grams lasts me a couple months at least, with daily use.
