Adinkerke

I'm going to Adinkerke to stock up on cigarettes next month and was looking at the price lists of some of the items. £39.50 fo B&H, etc...

I was wondering if they also sold Belgian cigarettes at a cheaper price.

Or does anybody know if they do really cheap cigarettes (not bothered what brand, as money is really tight)

If anybody knows any prices, that would be great

    Reminds me of the woman who was speaking on Jeremy vine the other day, they couldnt afford to feed their 4 kids and had to go to a food bank, BUT both her and her husband smoked!!!

    No doubt the pro-smoking lobby will be out in force soon to offer a defence, but clearly if money is tight then the MSE way to go is to give up rather than spend money on travelling abroad to feed a habit.

    Ignoring the unhelpful posters above, most of the shops over there sell cheaper than the name brands, starting at around £28-£30 although you may want to buy a single pack first to try them before getting loads,

    http://www.realtobacco.be/xl/products/cigarettes/ is where I always used to go, nice big shop with lots of other stuff in it like chocs and food etc. Not been over there for while though..

    Don't bother shopping around for cigarettes in Belgium. The price is government controlled so they should be the same price in every shop in Adinkerke.
    B&H are expensive, something like Mayfair or Royals would be a little cheaper.
    Normal people worry me.
