    i'm in Delaware, and cartons of marlboros are about 28, i think. i always have coupons though so i get them for about 23 or so. and yeah, NYC is NUTSO about cig prices. also, last time i was in London, a pack was something like 4.40, i think. and that's in pounds! i know a single pack at the convenience store up the street from my house is 2.87. i get girls from work giving me money to buy them smokes on my way in, since the price in PA is double that. and theyre 6 bucks in the machine at the club itself.

    I get them online for $18, sometimes $25.

    Marlboros.

    Here in RI, if I were to buy a pack, it would cost up to $7 depending on where I went. Hess seems to be the cheapest at $5.75 (after tax).

    This is why I NEVER buy them offline.. LOL

    Kids in college are constantly reselling cigarettes for extra cash. Not just on the internet, but border crossing, too. In IL they're almost as much as in NY, so people would run across the border to IN. In NY, Canada is the best bet since there are actually 10 more cigs in the pack at half the price or something. Not that I smoke or would encourage anyone to do anything illegal
    ...and the day came, when the risk it took to remain closed in a bud became worse than the risk it took to blossom.

    I get coupons, so I buy a pack for $2.15 at Racetrack, which is already pretty cheap. They usually cost at least $5 if you get them at a bar or my stripclub. In Vegas, on the strip, they are $7 and up, ouch!

    About $45 for a carton of American Spirits, which always tend to be on the pricey side. Day 2 of not smoking right now; if I quit I will save two grand a year.

    As a non tobacco-user, this idea is easy for me to suggest. I understand for those that have a connection to it, it may sound crazy.

    What if we calculated the amount spent on tobacco by the folks on this board...I wonder what that annual price might be.

    I then wonder what good we could do making that annual donation to a charity...could we (for example) fill a soup kitchen's cupboard for a month?

    Just curious, if any smokers/chewers/whatever want to share their per-month or whatver costs, I'd be happy to run the numbers

    Would this motivate anyone to quit?

    I pay around $2.35 a pack for Camels here and around $20-22 a carton here.

    Kentucky I think is the lowest in the US right now, so that's why I get off so cheap.

    And that's without the coupons, with them your looking at $1.35 a pack and $15-17 a carton.

    Wow, I didn't know reselling cigarettes was illegal. My sister before would go to Mexico and get them really cheap over there and resell them here, but i never knew that was illegal.
