    Tobacco and ciggy prices have risen quite sharply since June. Cutters Choice is now 44 Euros for 10x50g pouches.
  • If you can do a day trip to Gibraltar, well worth the travel you can get 200 cigarettes for £12.50 GBP ! you can bring back 200 per person, SO the petrol is covered by the savings if there are a couple of you.

  • Urgh.... Scratch that thought ! You are going to Costa Blanca, long journey. I thought when you said South, you were off to Costa Del Sol

    You're looking at about 30euro for 200cigs. 35euro for 10 x 50grms.
    You'll only be able to buy them in the Tabac shops in Spain.

    Just noticed your thread, it was only 35 euro earlier this year in the Tabac shop.

    I've just come back from Spain and has been said the prices have shot up.

    The exchange rate there is terrible. I saw a sign English notes changed, £20 note = 18.30 euros

    And watch the plane 1.40 euros to £1, there was quite a lot of complaining from passengers paying in left over euros.

    And as for bringing drink back, cheaper in Asda.

    But I had a nice holiday.
