Is there any reason to save these dead soldiers? do you recycle them for home use or send them to the scrap yard? What are they good for. Inquiring minds wants to know
My wife puts beads and other craft supplies in the ones I empty.
I put catnip into them, and enjoy watching my cat trying to open those tins~ Or if you have enough, you may want to start a game of table hockey~~
I haven’t finished any of my tins, even from my oldest snuffs. Though this is a question I have been thinking as late too. I have emptied a can of Princes Special into a glass jar because the can started oxidizing, but I have held on to it thus far as a sort of momento/documentation of snuffs I’ved tried. I may just wind up keeping the the top or peeling the sticker off somehow and start scrap-booking them. Great question B_S.
I save some for mixing, decanting from unfriendly tap boxes or bulk, or sending samples to friends. Some get recycled (for scrap that is, not reused) if they are too bent up or rusted to be used again. Some get saved for a collection, though most of the time I just save the label for a scrap book. The rest I send to @Filek. He collects them.
you could make a tabletop like people do with beer bottle lids althou most snuff lids are kinda boring these days mmmmmmmmm
@Pennanngalan My mother does the same. Crafts
I like the catnip one. Makes me want to have a cat again.
I send them to the dump(we will run out of fossilfuel before Tin, i promise). If i kept them all i would need another room, wife wouldent allow that. I wonder if they(dump workers) get concerned when they stumble across my garbage bag with all those strange Indian tins. Most likely not, i bet they find limbs on a regular basis.
One cabinet is enoght to keep your snuff tins at home 
woah! thought I had a lot of snuff!
I haven’t figured out why I’m keeping my empties but I haven’t thrown any away. My wife was complaining about them recently when she was dusting. Somehow I know I’ll come up with a use for them.
Something like the Toque tins are usable for me, but Sharrow Wilsons tins go into recycling and those damn 6 photo vacuum tins are wrecked by the time I have opened them after trying coins, screwdrivers, knives and finally can openers to get into them X(
@filek - wow! I’m impresssed! (also, lovely arrangement of your tins!) what are those tins on the bottom left shelf? I don’t think I’ve seen those before
@Filek I hope you don’t experience cross contamination! Storing all those different snuffs exposed . All in the same cabinet. OH no worries this is about empty tins ,Then that is a beautiful curio tribute to snuff.
Anybody ever try selling them on e-bay? After all… people collect beer cans!
@Filek can i make sweet love to your cabinet? great display, i need to come up with something for my collection
I collect them…as a proof how many I have “beaten”…
@Willymac Those are the old Paul Gotard tins - on the label is Al Pacino lol. I don’t remember who had discovered that, but I big pinch of snuff goes to my nose for his health @basement_shaman A think that only a half of my collection is based on empty tins - there rest are the ones that I don’t have interest in sniffing them. Empty tins = very good snuffs “Cross contamination” is rather a problem with sending samples to someone - especially samples in which one of them is an Indian perfume snuff. But yeah… there is an awful stench when you open such a cabinet. So remember, don’t mix all your snuffs @Cros No way! That’s my girlfriend mate! 
But she can’t cook like my real girlfriend 
Anyways guys, collecting snuff tins is absolutly normal for the Polish snuff taking community. It’s a good part of history, that someday might be gone forever. And of course every tin has it’s own special history, with meeting great people or trading with great persons - that’s the biggest joy for a collector - to share the passion.
@Filek didnt realize you were in a relationship! i will bide my time then!
