Nasal Snuff Adventures

That's a price to be sniffed at

Have you seen the savings on buying snuff in bulk?

1 Quid for a 7g tin or 1lb of it for less than 30 quid? Less than half price

Or even better yet how much is that Gratis snuff? and can I buy some to take home cos when I go in tobacconists and ask for gratis snuff he tells me to sod off!

[mrcigar]

Yes, people probably thought it was called 'Gratis'.
"'scuse me, bar tender, have you got any of that gratis snuff left?"

[Wigan]

Thread revival alert!

Love the fact they have had to write "free" above the word "Gratis", not the brightest bunch round your way lol?

If it was that recent you should ask if they still have a record of what the recipe/mix was.

and yes, get that tin asked for otherwise it will just be lost to time!

I put a couple of cloves in my tin of McChrystals yesterday and the snuff now has a very prominent clove smell. That is, cloves as in the little brown things, not cloves of garlic.

It's like a blast to the long gone past.

I was in a pub on Saturday afternoon (Whalebone) with a few tins of stuff on the table. The barman was collecting glasses and remarked that the pub used to make its own snuff and have it on the bar for anyone to take as they fancied. This was upto about 3 years back until some idiot mixed the snuff with chilli powder, whereupon it was removed for good. What a shame.

That's a really interesting find, even if it not fresh anymore

[mrcigar]

No, I should have asked shouldn't I?
I did try it but it was well dried out and no aroma but stale tobacco.

But he let you have the tin as a souvenir?

Yes, it is remarkably strong and virtually impossible to take. After you have tried it straight, which of course you must, I would recommend you mix it with something else as a carrier.

Well if you think its strong then i'm sure its going to wreck me!

Just made up a lethal cocktail of Viking Dark and White Elephant. Man! it's powerful stuff.

The white elephant is currently sitting in my shopping cart. I might have to be careful with it!
