I use snus when needed (no smoking areas, in the car on occasion, to give an extra oomph when having a drink or pipe).

Zyn is my favorite, but On! had a great introductory deal online (and a separate opening in the container to put used pouches).

Regular use gives me heartburn and hiccups, but the extra punch on occasion gets me where I need to go living on caffeine, nicotine and a splash of alcohol.

The 99 cent stuff we can get is horrifying. Wolf, Cougar and Kayak. The Kayak is tolerable, and does come in a 10 can tub for $8.
But I like Stokers. 100% American tobacco, made 100% in American, by Americans. Bobby Stoker says he will stop making smokeless tobacco if he ever needs to buy foreign tobacco.
Can't fault him for that. The vast majority of tobacco is now grown in Africa and elsewhere. Ive got an uncle and 2 cousins who grow tobacco in NC. They have watched dozens of farms go out of business.

Do you buy the Stokers cans or the tubs?

Do you notice a difference between the cans and the tubs?

I want to love Stokers wintergreen, maybe it's just too sweet for my taste. I've got a few tubs in my closet. Those tubs last forever, even without much of a seal.

I get the tubs, but pick up a can if im on the road and need one. I see no difference between the two.
I just prefer Stokers to everything else.
I go through 6 tubs every 2 months or so...... 2 Wintergreen, 2 Straight, and 2 Natural. I sometimes get a can or 2 of Kodiak or Grizzly for a change of pace.

Medical facilities in Kentucky have banned all tobacco use on their campuses. Security will escort you to your car if found in violation.
A few years ago i was on a big project for Nike, designing some crm ticketing software for them, i was in Beaverton for 4 weeks and i bright a bunch of short cigars with me, i walked to the edge of one of their giant parking lots and still got busted by a security guy in a golf cart “sir this is a non smoking campus”, i ended up walking across the street and smoking at the bus stop and even had a bench to sit on so eff them.

Then we went to Nike HQ in Amsterdam and they actually have a massive smoking area right in the middle of the campus, covered, nice seating and heaters for winter. So obv not a company policy.
