I've been on Walmart Equate 4mg lozenges for a while, Like $28 for 81 lozenges.
Is Zyn better/cheaper? And once available again, a bonus would make it easier to get from a gas station than have to go to Walmart.
ETA- the most convenient thing to do would just be to quit altogether, I recognize this. In the meantime...

Will the dryer still turn on? This is a Maytag Bravos XL. Google results have been inconclusive on whether the dryer will turn on or not if the thermal fuse blew.
I have the same dryer and mine just went out.
If it runs other than no heat, unplug it and take the front door off.
Look underneath on the left side and you will see the heater and two wires running to it in the very front. These are the ones for the heating element.
Unplug at least one of the wires and then measure the resistance with multimeter across the leads for the heater that the wires plug up to.
If it's OL/open, ie. no continuity then the element wire is burned up which is what was wrong with mine.
You can buy a kit on amazon for about 26 bucks with new element and thermo fuse and thermostat. LINK (check your model number of course)
I just replaced them all, but the wire in the element was definitely burnt in two.
This will walk you through the whole process.
ETA: If you haven't yet, you may want to change out the idler pulley and drum belt while you are at it. Those also went out on mine a couple months ago. They aren't too expensive either and since you are already in there...

Stop at 3 different gas stations on my way to work and all of them were out of 6 mg Zyn
I’ve been unable to find specifically the 6mg Wintergreen for the past few weeks here in Houston. I’ve heard different things from gas station cashiers, everything from a fire at the Zyn warehouse to the company being sold and manufacturing was stopped. The 7-11 near me seems to have stopped carrying Zyn altogether and replaced it with something called Zone which is 9mg and comes in packs of 20.

Reminds me of a joke.
Old guy goes to the doctor, gets an examination.
Doctor comes back in and goes "I've got some bad news...you've got cancer." After a short pause he says "you've also got Alzheimer's"
Old man goes, "well, at least it's not cancer!"

Lost our housekeeper of the last 20 years. She is going to work in an accounting department. Said she is getting old at 50 and it is wearing her down. Good for her but where can you trust anybody else with your home and keys nowadays?

Is Zyn better/cheaper
I dipped cope for about 6 years and quit in 2012. Didn't touch nicotine other than the occasional cigar until zyn. Bought a can out of curiosity last November and was immediately hooked. I think it's more addictive than dip because you don't have to spit and can do it anywhere without anybody knowing.
I feel like a dumbarse for getting hooked at 35 years old. Two of my friends are doctors and both of them do it. They said if you aren't fat or don't have heart trouble it's not that bad for you since tobacco isn't involved.

Our modern coffee maker went out a few days ago and I broke out the old 1950s style percolator. It makes way better coffee but my wife's never going to admit that I was right ten years ago when we last had this argument.
Love my old percolator.
You reminded me, I have to find it in the garage. Packed it away a couple of moves ago.

I got one for y’all…happened today:
3 CPAs, 2 attorneys, and a parish economic development official neglected to mention to me that $600,000 in taxes paid in 2023 could have be deferred until 2026 because property I bought is in the Opportunity Zone.
For the first time in my career, I nearly stopped at a bar and drank during the day. It made me physically ill.

bullshite. They rejected Reynolds offer to buy them bc they knew it would be. And they redeemed all of the outstanding stock bc they knew it would be. I was sitting on 7500 shares of that shite. Made a nice return but I was looking forward to the ride.

Thanks again. Thermal fuse and heater coil were $27 on Amazon. I guess my Bravos is a little different than the one in the video since it's the commercial version. I took the front off, drum out, and was halfway through vacuuming it when I realized that the heater element wasn't there. I had to remove about 8 screws to remove the back panel to get to it. Replaced the belt while I was at it and it needed a cleaning so I didn't just waste time removing the front.
Heater coil was obviously broken. Replaced it and thermal fuse. Works fine now.
