Due to a savage hike in prices last week, I am now paying 3.15 for 20 cigs that cost me 2.95€ last week. It was across the board, and the new tax applies to all brands. They are still cheaper than in the UK, but the price differential is rapidly closing. You can thank all the tobacco smugglers for 90% of the recent price gouging in tobacco, and 10% for the Spanish economy ailing so badly at the moment.
Wow Rick!! And you quit drinking too? And the wife is still in the UK?? Are you becoming a Monk now?? Hehe!! J/K! Hope things are going better for ya now!!
