Buying Cigarettes In America

Charger_2

What you really want to do is travel to one of the Native Indian resavations, there you can buy booze & cigs tax free !!!! Thats what the americans do when they want to buy in bulk!

The best thing to do to make sure you get the Cigs you like is go to the duty free shop on the way TO America with your tickets which you have to show in order to be able to buy them duty free and do as i always do and will do this coming Saturday (I'm flying from Manchester to Sanford) and buy the cigs you want.I always get the Embassy as you get 5 x 200 in a box for £50 that should last you all your holiday and your allowence when you return to the UK.:)

If you visit I drive just down from Wet and Wild water park theres a shop on the corner that sells ciggies VERY cheaply it was $15 for a 200 pack.

Good job the shops had see through carrier bags to put the 4 jumbo boxes from duty free into. All customs need to do is count 4x200= more than your supposed to, hang on a minute customs didn't give a toss in Manchester.

Have been to Florida a dozen times, and can honestly say I have never seen a customs officer pulling anyone on the way back into Manchester. Just don't overdo it.

When I arrived back in Manchester from the states the red "corridor" for "something to declare" was closed!! They had a phone there for you to ring someone if you wanted to pay some taxes :rotfl:

Your flight obviously didn't co-incide with any flight arrivals from the Canaries - if it ever does you'll see more Customs than on "The Knock"! Are they after drugs, explosives, terrorists - nah, fags!
Nothing to do with buying cigs in America - just thought I'd mention it in passing!!
