and yes it's expensive as fuck for cigs. I get a carton about once ever 9 days now. Cost 31$ after tax. This is cheap compared to most states. Like upstate nY, a pack cost over 7.50 a back. California, forget about it..at least 6.50 a back or more. Here in neveda it's still somewhat cheaper, usually 4.12 a pack, usually i can get them at some smoke shops for 3.30$ after tax..when i first started back in 99 it was onlly about 2.75 for a pack after tax..
