Rising cigarette prices

[Uriah Heep]

i blame the liberals. and i dont even smoke!

[LSA King]

Or they could raise beer taxes then I am sure you non-smokers would care .

[-SpectraL]

In Canada, we've been paying over $9 a pack for years. It's because of all the lung cancer patients decked out in the hospital waiting rooms... and of course to buy more limos and nice shoes for our honest politicians who know how to hide behind a great excuse well enough as the next person when it comes stumbling along.

[tanaka]

Although the government is figuring out a way to have more money for their pockets, there is honestly no point in smoking cigarettes. I do it from time to time thats why im not giving that much shit about it but, honestly if cigs are the only way to get through your day, then damn you got to stop smoking and it makes you smell like shit when you walk in.

And what if I like to smoke?

Tabacco gets a lot of bad publicity because of health concerns.
In my opinion they are highly exaggerated.
Infact, living in a big city is even worst for your lungs and heart, because of air pollution.

[AdamSmokesCrack]

Shit. I thought it was bad when I was paying $5.01 for a pack of Marbs.

[Actor]

I have a feeling the prices will eventualy go back down.

its not a scam, if you look on the website at the top, there is a seperate category for EU cigarettes and US cigarettes, if you go to the US category, its normal priced but in the EU category its ridiculously cheap.

I'm guessing it's because they're shipping from europe and they don't have to pay tax (which makes up the the bulk of the price of cigarettes, thats why its so cheap on reservations.).

I feel i should warn you though, the cigarettes might taste a slight bit different, being from a different continent and all, but for ~15 bucks a carton, what the fuck can you complain about.

I find that American smokes are more like a primetime, a lot sweeter, Canadian and European tobacco is more bitter but in a good way.

[Mike Hancho]

I understand that sites like this exist and aren't all scams, but has anyone used this particular one?

[Mikehunt1]

fuck taxes! I spent $70 in taxes on my new fucking tv

they should legalize weed to 21+ and tax the shit out of that

18+ is more reasonable

Alcohol should also be changed to 18+

[graphite]

It would be sweet if that site had my smokes. No smoothes but they do have crisp mint and something else that looks similar except they're sold out. No blend no. 27's either.

I'm not spending all my money or lung power on things that don't get me high. Just some of it. And due to the fact that cigarettes enhance my high, as well as my regular day to day life, I think I'll continue smoking.

[akizlex]

in new york city cigarettes are at $9.50 a pack
so OP go fuck yourself with your cheap ass cig prices.

"All orders are processed and shipped from out of the US. Therefore We don't report tax or customer information to any government agency or other entity."

Pack of parliament full flavors now run over 6 dollars. I've taken cartons to a few music festivals and sold packs to new yorkers for 5 bucks a pop(good deal to them) but it looks like I can't do that anymore.

I agree. Sell five joints and make it $30 a pack. I would purchase and just think if they state would sell it like Cali is trying to do the state would make roughly $15 and the fed could take $5 profit the rest going to whoever is reselling and packaging.


Think of the billions this would bring in to every state. Smoking weed would be a legal luxury just like a fine wine.

[Akagi]

Get this shit and quit smoking while satisfying your addiction.

Problem solved.

I'm not going to lie I am lazy and I just couldn't walk around with a makeshift paper box full of cigarettes. I also love the taste of Marb reds. Matter of fact I think all major tobacco companies should sell there tobacco in bags and sell filters and all that shit. Seems like an easy way to beat all the taxes.

I was talking about alcohol. You can't effectively grow your own tobacco.

The solution to the cigarette prices are just to quit the damn things and invest in the electronic cigarette I linked to earlier for your fix. It's cheaper and won't make you smell like an ashtray/give you cancer/kill you.

[Duelist]

its about time we do away with this good for nothing habit.

tax them more, I say.

I used to smoke, but then ciggs cost 7.10 a pack and I said, no way.
