Default Where can I find Redman Chew?

I have been looking for a store that sells redman in Calgary but haven't had much luck. If i had friends going down to the states I would just get them to pick some up but no.

Thanks, Dave

Macs In Braeside or Tsuu Tina Gas Stop for sure has it. If your willing to drive to Turner Valley the Hi Ho gas there has Redman Plug.

Do you want long cut snuff in a can or the pouch that has long long stingy tobacco?

Is it illegal to send some from the states up north? because chew here is uber cheap but I stick to skoal long cut.

It is uber cheap down there. I just got a shipment from the Us even with duty it was still cheaper than buying it here. It worked out to about 9 bucks for a large tin of Copenhagen. So i bought 20

Its sad when I go to Mx races in the states and they are giving away the tins for free (15g samplers) that they make you pay 10 bucks for up here. Not only that they were handing out discount coupons to buy tins. A big tin up here costs anywhere from 20-23 bucks depending who you ask and where you get it there is a difference in quality for sure and stateside is always better than Canadian Cope.

I got 15 15g cans when I went to the Aarons 499 at Talladega earlier this year. It was awesome not buying chew for a couple of weeks.

I'm surprised Red Man is so hard to find. I quit back in the early 90's, had my teeth filled and figured I needed them more than chew. Back then it was everywhere.

A chew thread on CP? Awesome. In Red Deer, lots of gas stations stock Red Man's not in a tin though. In the brick/pouch form. I personally never indulge in the old redman's unless i'm out in a bush somewhere. Stuff is messy and its disgusting to swallow.

I have to say the 22 dollars I pay every 3 days for a tin is ridiculous. If/when I go to the states i'm gonna load up on a year's supply.

I slowed down alot on chew. I use to chew a big can in a day and a half but now I slowed down to pouches and it takes me a week to go through a can of that. Hopefully I can find some bandits and then quit.

Never could handle the Cope or Skoal, tried once or twice when I was a kid but it made me sick.

This on the other hand was great, too bad they don't sell it in Canada anymore:
