    you can ask your niece to get as many as you would like, however they need to be a gift you cant give her the money back for the goodies, price wise they arent cheap you may save £10-£15 or so a sleeve
    Live each day like its your last because one day you'll be right

    B+H, L+B, Regal, etc are approx 48 Euro at Schiphol .... Roughly £42 at todays GBP to Euro Exchange rate. :)

    What if she gave you them as a "gift" and in exchange you gave her a gift of money :)

    Dunno about Amsterdam but in Barcelona you can get them for about £25 - £28, if i smoked they would probably be a bargain!

    In mainland Spain 25- 30 euro which is cheap compared to £55 UK prices!

    If she isn't a smoker they'll not know if they're not for her own use anyway.

    As long as she doesn't get a mixture of B+H, L+B, Regal.
