To Panic Buy, or Not to Panic Buy...

[Lumbridge]

...that is the question.

Some good sales going on right now. Considering buying a small mountain of toby. Should I do it, or nah?

 

[alaskanpiper]

Well, I mean, I believe I’d have to say yes.

[smokeyweb]

The people have spoken. Order up!

What the fuck is a toby?

What the fuck is a toby?

Like Old Toby. Baccy.
Or, as Sam Gamgee might put it, "TOE-BACK-OE - the piper's delight."

You guys are supposed to be talking me down from this metaphorical ledge. Shame on you.

This was the queue at my local B&M last night:



Basically if you don't have this already... you're doooomed!

 

[SpookedPiper]

That's silly...I made a promise to not buy any more..but then again it's ipsd! So if you smoked today you need to replace it!
I say go for it, what's an ounce or two, 3, or 4 pounds?!

'Round here we don't have B&Ms. We have stoner head shops and the occasional luxury cigar boutique, either of which *might* have a decade-old, dried up pouch of Captain Black Cherry to sell you for $15-20 (plus tax) if you nicely ask the guy at the counter to dig it out.

What I'm getting at is, without online sales, I'd be F'd-in-the-A. So yeh, a bale or two might be in order...

Edit: spelling

Hah, um... I'm thinking like 20-40 pounds.
You gotta pump those numbers up. Those are rookie numbers.

Pump it Up Brother! Big $ pipes are just wood if you have nothin to put in them...

If the blends you're wanting are available, why wouldn't you take advantage of the sales? Prices are only going to go up? Availability is going to become increasingly difficult. You'd be making an investment in your smoking future.

Well, you basically have two choices:

1. Panic now and have tobacco.

2. Panic later and have no tobacco.

My only real qualm is storage. I'm trying to figure out just how to store several dozen pounds. That would be... a LOT of mason jars.

I can buy 16oz factory sealed bags. Maybe if I took those and sealed them in vacuum bags, wrapped that up in mylar sheeting (like an emergency blanket), stuffed it all into an airtight (or close to airtight) bin... still working out the logistics of it.

Hoping someone who has stored sealed plastic bags long-term will chime in.

Transfer to mylar bags and heat seal them.
