October 12, 2007 - Reynolds Tobacco is now providing coupons for a free can of Camel SNUS inside some packs of Camel cigarettes. What do you think?? Are they targeting inveterate (hard-nosed, long established, deep-rooted) cigarette smokers to help them switch to SNUS OR trying to convince smokers that you can satisfy your nicotine addiction in places where smoking is banned by using SNUS. See related news brief - free SNUS coupons: September 18, 2007. As pointed out by Dr. Simon Chapman, British American Tobacco's Lucky Strike snus has been promoted in South Africa with "Can't smoke? Snus!" in a naked attempt to keep nicotine coursing in the veins of smokers at all the times across a day when they can't smoke. This is an industry dual-use strategy designed to keep people smoking. Because smoking bans stimulate quitting, this is a harm increasing, not reducing development.
