    $5.64 pack a smokes do you smoke?
    I was in asia last year and a pack of cigs are about under $1


    You have to be rich to smoke here in the states..most people smoke a pack a day..Lets do some math

    5.64 in Seattle = $39.48 a week = $171.08 a month $2052 a year

      Never have - can't stand it. Do not discriminate against others though.

                    Roll your own. I knew a guy that did this, said it cost less than $1 a pack. Even less if he used cheaper tobacco, but I guess he used better stuff. His cigarettes looked perfect, I'd never know that he rolled them himself.

                    Personally, I smoke a pipe when I get a rare craving for tobacco. I'm still smoking on a $3 stash I bought last summer. But, cleaning the pipe is a real pain, and if you don't it tastes nasty.

                          Why would anyone start smoking in the last 15 years or so anyways?

                                  I only smoke a few cigs a day.. Probably go threw two packs a week at the most. Lately been spending about $5 a week lol..

                                  If Cigs were $6.25 a pack that would suck

                                      Sock it to the man!

                                      Sock it to the man ''Hillary and all the socialist democrats and republicans''buy your sub generics dirt cheap at www.indiansmokesonline.com They used to take credit cards and UPS would deliver them right to your door.I think the subs go for about $12 a carton now.They used to be $9 when I used to order for people.Now I think you have to send them a check or money order etc.This industry is feeling the heat just like online gambling is.They are based out of upstate New York.The funny thing is,Bill Clinton was the one to get these tribes socialist economic development grants to start tobacco sales on the reservations.

                                              Camel lights anywhere from 3.25-3.60 a pack around here, i get mine at the store by me for 3.30 a pack and the sales reps always brings in buy1 get1 free packs about once a week and the little asian dude who owns the store saves them under the counter just for me, everytime i come in, him or his wife reach back to open the door under the counter and pull them out and go "cigarettes just for you."
                                              i generally smoke about half a pack a day, unless i'm at the bar drinking, then i''l go through a whole pack and maybe more.

                                                Shit, some of you guys have it easy...

                                                I pay $5.94 for a pack of Marlboro Lights and that's the cheapest place in town. RI has the highest tax mark up on cigs.

                                                Daily: $5.94
                                                Weekly: $41.58
                                                Monthly: $178.20
                                                Yearly: $2,168.10

                                                  you can get GT-ones or other generics for around 2.00, they even have some for like 1.25 sometimes, there is this one, i think its called "Kentucky Select" or something, there usually like a buck and a half, they claim to be home grown and no additives or chemicals, but they taste like shit, iguess all the chemicals the big companies use make em taste better and keep us addicted.

                                                  has anyone who smokes Phillip Morris brand cigs, noticed the new fire proofing paper on them, they go out if you don't keep smoking them. my sister pointed it out to me, cause i was at her apartment and smoked one of hers and i put it down for just like 20-30 seconds and it went out. she told me its some new paper they are using that goes out if you don't keep smoking it. she said on the bar code it will have some initials like fp or something before the numbers or above the numbers. i haven't noticed them on my Camels which are RJ Reynolds brand. my sister said it has something to do with all the fires that happen from people falling asleep while smoking. we seem to have alot of those in KY., there was a big story that happened a year or so ago in Bardstown where like 5-6 kids died, and the fire was started by an aunt or uncle or grandma that fell asleep smoking.

                                                    I HAVE noticed that! I just thought I was losing it! A lot of times, if I'm talking while smoking, they'll go out on me. Thank you for talling me that....I've been trying everything....packing them more...packing them less...


                                                    I have a few nasty burns in my carpets (not to mention both my coffee table and kitchen table) from my mom falling asleep or walking away from a cig. I'm lucky my house is still standing!

                                                        It is pretty bad when I can buy a bag of mexican swag retail from the dudes down the street for almost the same price as the cigs that my wife smokes.

                                                            Haha!

                                                            Okay, I just got there a little differently than you.

                                                            Obviously, for weekly it was $5.94*7=$41.58 For monthly, since there are more than 4 weeks in a month, I went with $5.94*30=$178.20 then, since I was in that mindset, I used $5.94*365=$2,168.10. So we're both right.
