Hi,

Any idea when Altoids Gum (with tin) will become available on AdaFruit again?


Thanks,
urig

It would be terrific if you could make regular ones available in the meanwhile... :)

Wrigley's, the maker of Altoid Gums has discontinued this line of product some time early of this year. That's why it's nearly impossible to get these cans now. A quick search on Ebay reveals many of these gums for sale at some crazy prices as they are a rarity now. That's probably why Adafruit is looking to get these tins fabricated themselves.
