If you’re sick of the same old supermarket / petrol station / off license nicotine pouches (all of which, with very few exceptions, being Big Tobacco brands) and you want to try something new, this article covers off what I do to source products for review on VapeBeat.
And there are two major benefits of doing things this way, which are:
- First, you’re going to save yourself some money. How much? Quite a lot. Brands like ZYN and FUMi are MASSIVELY overpriced in supermarkets and petrol stations.
- Second, you’re going to discover brands you’ve never heard of, pay less, and get better flavour and mouth-feel.
I test out a lot of brands. Every month, we review new nicotine pouch brands and update our best nicotine pouch guide. And the secret behind how I test so many?
Simple: this 99p nicotine pouch offer, and how it works is simple AF.
- There’s like 50+ options to choose from, including big brands like ZYN, FUMi, XQS and more.
- You pay 99p per tin (excluding delivery)
- I tend to get 10 or 20 tins, various brands and flavours, a month which usually costs around £12 or £22, respectively
Now, it is true that some brands and retailers send VapeBeat stuff to review; that’s just how the web operates. But quite a lot of the time, because I use pouches myself, it’s just me buying sh*t and trying it out.
For instance, just last week I bought myself a new cache of pouch brands to try (see the image above), and it cost me just over a tenner (excluding shipping fees which came to £2.50).
If you’re stuck in a rut and want to try some new flavours and brands, this 99p offer is the simplest and easiest (and cheapest) way to sample new brands and flavours.
I’ve found so many hidden gems doing this, flavours I thought I wouldn’t like (Mocha Mint, for instance) but ended up loving.
If you’ve lost count of the amount of times you’ve been burned by going off-your-usual-brand, paying £5 or more for something new, and then hating it, I feel you, I’ve done it myself, which is why this approah is so much better.
You’re saving like 90%. You can’t even buy a can of Coke these days for 99p! If you’re curious about what brands to try, my top picks right now would be anything by XQS, FUMi, VELO or ZYN.
I’d also always recommend you get at least a few wild cards; this is how I discovered my new obsession (Fizzy Peach by XQS).
