Nope, most smokes are about $320-$3.50 here. Some places (NYC, I
believe) they're something like $7. Yeah...the cost of a movie here.
The sad thing is, that tax money goes 'to help the children' so they're
setting it up where people NEED to smoke, to keep people on at the local
school. :>
$1 a pack...if I fall off the wagon, I might have to send you some
money for some smokes! :>
