Hi All! I just recently quit smoking with the help of an ecig (ego and vivi nova). So it’s really great that I stopped, but after a few weeks/ a month I started aching for a cigarette. And started smoking again. It didn’t last long as I got my sinusitis back from smoking. I quit again and invested in a ProVari and different tanks setups, and I quit for good. There was still something missing so I ordered some Swedish Snus seeing how some vapers were using it and it helped them tremendously . It’s really great and I love Snus and the price…the price when ordering online. Thing is, I’m in Canada and the border services are real greedy! I ordered 5 tins of Swedish Snus and it got here in 5 days from Sweden. Incredible! So was the customs charges…53$ for 5 tins. I also had 1 issue when ordering nicotine e-juice from the U.S I know it’s getting quite a long story and I’m sorry about that. Here comes Snuff to the rescue! I liked smoking, but I don’t know why I LOVE snuff! I guess it’s because it makes me feel like a sane and legal version of scarface hehe I do love Snuff but I’ve been battling the flu and allergies so I’m dealing with quite a bit of congestion despite the many chemical “decongestants” I’m taking, which just means a stimulant lol So I have a few different snuffs already, President, Lowenprise, Bayern Prise, O&G, Dholakia Swiss Chocolate, Poschl Gawith Apricot, Ozona Orange, Toque raspberry menthol and Toque Peach. Here’s what I’ve ordered for decongesting snuffs: 6 Photo Special 6 Photo Kailash 6 Photo Motia Dholakia White Dholakia Black Fubar Grunt Fubar Medic SG Scotch Black SG SP Scotch SG Cola Wilsons Irish HT 22 Wilsons SP Best Wilsons Tom Buck Extra Strong SP What are your tricks and tips you have to offer and what do you think of my order?
Well the 6Photo you ordered will take care of your congestion. And the rest of your order are all good choices. The trick to flu and allergies is not to get them in the first place. This means you must built a strong immune system. an herbalist can help you with both ailments. Drugs only mask the symptoms. The mineral zinc is a good start for building immunity and shorting the flu duration.I could list herbs but the web has many resources http://www.anniesremedy.com/chart\_remedy.php?tag=allergies.
It’s actually my first time getting sick in the last 3 years. And I’m not all that sick, just congested.

@SunnyHours another Canadian on the forum, that’s great! I order my snus from Northerner and have for the past 8 years had various duty fees. If you can order smaller orders like 3-4 cans, or even just 2, you will generally have less duty to pay. Meaning the smaller packages shipped from Sweden are not always tagged with duty. Also space your orders out. I have received up to 10 cans without duty, but that was many years ago when snus was still a bit unknown. Avoid ordering any American tobacco products from anywhere that ships from the US, you will absolutely have duty to pay, even the smallest amount. That all said, even if you had to pay duty every time, I bet you’d still be saving a little money as opposed to buying it off the shelves. So if you have fees now and again, you are still ahead of the game. Also going across the border if possible is another route. You can usually not have any customs fees if you are bringing in 1 can of Dip .Make sure you declare it, and then see where it goes from there. Canada has a very aggressive anti smoking/tobacco campaign. We are " allowed " to have it, but we are punished financially as a means to force us to stop using tobacco altogether. Considering e-cigs, and e-liquid are essentially illegal here, I’m surprised you got it at all! therecord.com/news-story/2614451-electronic-cigarette-smoker-wants-end-to-ban-in-canada/ I rarely receive any duty on snuff shipments from Mister Snuff or Toque, but I also keep my orders well below 200 grams. I’ll order something in bulk one day when I win the lottery! 8->
Everyone’s nose is different in terms of what snuffs dry them out and what don’t; I find 6 Photo Motia, Wilsons Royal George, and any of the Indian White snuffs to be the best for opening me up. Especially the whites - when I’m super clogged, sniffing a white is like pouring hydrochloric acid onto concrete pavement, it melts right through whatever’s stuffing you.
@SunnyHours your order looks well thought out providing you don’t have my problem. The menthols really break through but shortly after I get rebound congestion that is worse than what I started with. I don’t know how common this is but forewarned is forearmed.
Just remember that some of us cannot tolerate menthol in any form. If I consume any I will be stuffed up for days, a curse.
Ozona President served me well as a decongestant for many years. Now I use 6 Photo Kailash and 6 Photo Special. It’s all about what works best FOR YOU.
I find a good coarse snuff works best to clear things out, most of the de Kralingse come to mind.
I’m having a sinusitis so that’s part of the issue…recently met a girl (she was sick) and we shared a drink, thinking “I never get sick” and now here I am lol Of course it started at the same time as I started snuff, so my sniffing skills weren’t all that good. And the Toque used to hit my throat and therefore my sinuses… Any tips on getting it over faster?
Ozona President served me well as a decongestant for many years. Now I use 6 Photo Kailash and 6 Photo Special. I just got me some of this and it certainly got me unplugged and ready for more. It’s all about what works best FOR YOU.
Ozona President it is…and somehow I can handle O&G now…so lots of that too and my antibiotics and, steroids for my nose After those 14 days on the steroids my nose is gonna be hella strong! Hoover will have nothing on me
Wait, maybe the whole bullet will go through my nose?
