We have Indian reservations around us and many go there to buy their cigarettes as they don't have to pay state tax. It is cheaper.
I also looked for buy one get one frees and smoked ANYTHING. Menthol..mild.... you name it.
ON average the big brands are over $5.00 a pack.

On the other hand, here in Bolivia, a national upper brand is about $us 1.00, yeah you saw it right, an "import" like marl***** or Cam** from germany and/or venezuela is about $us 1.20,
If dont have the money, you can buy at retail, I mean 1 2 3 cigs for $us 0.05 each
So saving money is not a reason to stay quit.....
NOPE

Hi Lizzie, I am from the UK too. So prices will be roughly the same. However, I used to get one of the cheaper brands so �4.20. No idea what it is now mind you. I avoid shops.
According to the survey I have been reading for 2007. UK is the most expensive of all EU countries at �5.23 per pack (avg) of which �4.03 is tax. The cheapest place in the EU is Latvia which costs �0.42 avg per pack of 20! �0.31 of that is tax :)
So if you were looking for some cheap smokes then I would know where I would suggest going for your holidays. Of course we don't smoke so we save all of that anyway!
I remember taking an American around the local bars here and he was so amazed by the price of smokes here he took a photo and sent it back home!

One of the most enjoyable aspects of quitting is all that extra money to spend. For me, that's nearly $12,000.
In the UK, an average pack of cigarettes is about �4.80 which equates to around $9.60 (yes - you saw that right - nearly $10!). Of that around 80% is paid into the tax system.
How much is a pack where you live?
Lizzie :)
