I frequently tell myself I can't open anything new until I smoke down the stock of currently open tins.
I don't think I'm doing too good as I just counted 32 open tins.
How many open tins do you have?

One open tin, one open carafe, half-a-dozen baggies of various samples I've received in the last week or two, and 23 jars on the go at the moment...although some of those are down to the last bowl.

Wow Kevin, 32 tins? I'd feel lucky if I had 32 tins of baccy, much less 32 open ones! :lol: For the record, I have just 3 open now.

2 tins and 26 jars in active rotation just now.

I've been attempting the same, namely, reducing that number. No joy here either, just opened another jar of Kendal Kentucky last night....
Not a problem though, wondrous variety!

Way too many lol. I have a number of blends that I've put into mason jars. Just don't have enough jars to transfer over some of the new stuff. There's probably a dozen or so tins just laying around of which probably 8 or 9 are open.

OK, I'm going with only open tins and not tins that have been transferred to Mason Jars. Also, I'm not including any bulk which hasn't been transferred to jars yet.
13 open tins. Most are going to be put into Mason jars when I get some more half-pint ones since the quart ones would be overkill. The more appropriate question would be, "How many tins do you have that aren't open?" The answer there is easy. Zero.

Dang it, just opened another while reading this. I have about 10 tins, 3 or 4 soft pouches, and about 10 mason jars open. I think I'm going to try and reduce the open tin count by putting the tins into jars....then ba bing.....no open tins and I can open more. :crazy:
