    Naw, I knew it was an insane idea. I get tons of those.

    I am looking forward to smoking a Cuban cigar though. (And lots of weed):)

    it's victoria's secret ;)

    i dont know much about it or really care that much, but if anything there is worth purchasing i'll tell you what is:

    an ex used to go there religiously to purchase a perfume they offer. i think its called amber romance or something like that.

    if you can find it, i'll tell you what...it smells nice to say the least.

    it might be just the memories associated with it. smells can bring back powerful memories.

    but to this day it just absolutely makes me melt.

    kind of makes me sad, really, but thats not the point.

    the point is it smells nice, and sexy as hell :p

    I don't know that cigs can get much more expensive than here in New York. I pay $6.50 to $8.

    I don't know off the top of my head how much our Pall Malls go, but I'm almost sure they're not that high. Our Marlboro's are like $3.75 a pack. Benson and Hedges on the other hand are outrageous. $41 a carton. I've sold very few of those.

    glad i don't smoke
    or use smokeless tabaccy either - my roommate does - prices have soared on that too.

    i know just as many long time smokers who've quit because of price increases as those who've continued to smoke.

    heheheh....4.20, huh?

    thats not too bad then.

    maybe the price of pall malls just reverted back to what it was..maybe they now cost more than basics and the like...

    in my mind they were always a premium cigarette, just less expensive than the others......


    them for a little while basics cost more than pall malls...i couldnt believe it!

    perhaps the natural order has been restored :D

    Jersey prices...

    How about Brazil? A pack will cost you about 50 cents (U.S.) --- but so will everything else.

    You lot count yourself lucky, over here they've gone up by another 11p (22c) in tax, so now they're at somewhere between £1.70 ($3.40) for 10 Royals and £2.40 ($4.80) for 10 Reds. Then up to around £5 for 20. For some unknown reason 40 decks are only 6 quid though.

    I needed a cigarette so bad the other day, but didn't have enough cash on me to buy a pack. I guess that was a good thing...but damn I needed the nicotine.

    That's still crazy cheap compared how much you have to pay here. It's over £5 a pack which is over 10 dollars. That's why most people buy tobacco and roll their own.
