Tabac Shops In Brussels

meandmaboy

Good Afternoon,
Brother is thinking of taking a cheapie flight to Charleroi in Belgium for the weekend, does anyone know if the Tabac shops in either Brussels or Charleroi sell British Brands of cigarettes or tabacco ? or would he have to go to the likes of Ostend ???I would have thought his cigs etc would be cheaper in Spain, but he thinks differently :mad::mad::mad:(what do I know I'm only the big Sis :(:(:(
Any replies gratefully received:)

Fairly certain that you are correct, ciggies will be cheaper in Spain at the government controlled Tabacs.;)

The chocolate, on the other hand, will more than make up for it

I was in Ypres in Belgium back in June, the Tabac shops sold the british brands, but they were nearly the same price as in the UK only pennies of a difference.
Spain is def cheaper.

Thought as much, now can go back & report this to him, like the idea that I was right all along.:j:j:j:j
That'll teach him not to listen to his Big Sister.:T

Have a look at this website which is for booze cruisers, there is plenty of info on Belgium fag prices. If you click on the shop's adverts they have price lists, some even have free gifts they give you if you email them before you travel.

But big suprise was switzerland was the cheapest we've found!!!

Sorry Claire and Paul, but your post is a bit confusing.

First you say "Belgium is definitely cheaper", then you say "don't know about Spain though".

So how definite are you that Belgium is cheaper than Spain?

Cheaper than Spain, I don't think so.

Rolling Tobacco is cheaper in Belgium at the moment but tailor mades are cheaper in Spain, the prices keep going up and down so the situation can change
