gotta go to the arab/asian stores //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/fyi.gif.9f1f679348da7204ce960cfc74bca8e0.gif

i buy a lot of cigarillos and they are still only $4.50 for a 5-pack where i go. if i went to the chevron or circle-k they'd be $6+ for the same pack.

looks like I found a way to make some extra cash, they sell cigs cheap here on the base and no taxes. I going to buy cartons at a time and sell to all you guys. Seriously smoking is the worst habit to have even bigger waste of money than car audio.

Well I guess thats why they're taxing it, to get people to quit. I for one do not want my tax dollars paying for peoples smoking habits
