They may still be cheap, or at least cheaper. *I don't know how the taxes
break down here, but cigarettes are between $7-8 per pack.


The ultra cheap brand (Pall Mall or Dorals) here locally are $4.51.

I dont' knwo how much the tax is. I suppose I should ask.But it really
doesn't matter. People wo smoke are going to smoke, regardless how
much it costs them.


Yeah, our tobacco tax went up so far a couple months ago the price of
a package of loose went from 1.50 right up to 3 bucks, overnight...
