    But smoking 20 a day(roughly) is robbing me clean....near to £7 a day and it does add up!!

    7 x 7 = 49
    49 x 52 = 2548

    In New York City, a pack of Marlboros is approx $13 =€10.33 = £8.95

    Many smokers hop over to New Jersey once a month where they are about a third cheaper, know a bloke who used to get his cigs mail order from a Indian Reservation for several years- until he got presented with a bill for $2,700.. which he had to pay (no shit - just google this one)!!!

    Know a few people who've used the 'e-cigs' to quit.

    This may be a shaggy dog story... but I read that a while back a Philip Morris 'secret' report compiled for the Czech government which pointed out the dangers of over-taxation on tobacco in a socialized state viz: If you raise the price too high it does stop some smokers...but the increased cost of pensions supposedly far outstrips the extra short term revenue made!!

    Had always meant to track this one down... not a shaggy dog tale!!-

    On a related tangent- if the Irish government puts too much tax on cigs it will only drive even more blackmarket trade, many folks I know in IRL buy their fags from eastern european gentlemen...

    And they've just got dearer again. With the excise duty and vat increases, a packet of 20 should be €9.08 from midnight tonight............so hit the ATMs and down to your local store to stock up boys and girls.

    Better still - ask your buddies from the east if they know anyone.. you can pick 'em up for about €4/pack that route...
