    who cares?, i will check on saturday, a money saving tip is what this is, not a comment on how healthy something is, just like when chocolate or something else not healthy is on offer.

    thanks original poster.

    I quit 2 months ago. It's the best descision I have ever made.

    Never heard of chocolate killing anyone, unless they eat too much of it and get morbidly obese that is :)

    Good original post. Shame people have to take it off topic.

    And no, I don't smoke.

    I dont smoke, but this is a good find. Not often you find them at half price. I suggest anybody wanting to discuss health issues can go to the health forum, its really off topic in this forum.

    Marlboro Medium were an ill-fated attempt to bridge the gap between the full strength marlboro red, and the "light" marlboro lights. Nobody bought them, and i presume Sainsburys are trying to get rid of them after them haven been withdrawn from the tobacco companies portfolio...

    Don't think this is based on any kind of fact is it? they have been around since i was 16, so that's some 8 odd years and are still available in most places. That's like saying "most people don't smoke camels" they're just not available in as many places as the "regulars".

    Hi, Martin’s asked me to post this in these circumstances: While it’s easy to wander off-topic that often prevents newbies finding the information they want quickly and easily (please see this rule). Please keep this thread on topic. If you’d like to discuss non-MoneySaving related topics please continue your discussion in The MoneySavers Arms or Discussion Time. If you have any questions about this policy please email [email="abuse@moneysavingexpert.com"]abuse@moneysavingexpert.com[/email]

    some posts have been removed to get the thread back on topic so please could you just discuss the actual bargain and not the rights or wrongs of it, thanks :)

    I quite agree, all im saying is that this is not really a money saving tip as it costs everyone more money to look after smokers. Same goes for alcohol as well.


    The idea of this board is to find things that people may buy may want to buy or do buy regularly and find them a cheaper price than is normally available. This is an item that i noticed that may save those who wish to smoke (i am not one myself) some money.....so yes this is a money saving tip...... ie it saves those who wish to buy it money. The essence of this board.
