I noticed in early august @ the local CVS cartons were about $41 plus tax. I went again late Aug to buy a carton and it was now $44 plus tax. Someone told me that there was another tobacco tax increase in Aug 2009. Is this true?
I tried researching it online but can’t come up with anything. Anyone know a website that tells us california had raised the cig tax again and by how much?

All I found were articles about lawmakers pushing for a cigarette tax (dated Aug. 2009), but not any that stated any new tax in August 2009. There was a tax put in place earlier in the year…

If you know, how much are the cartons?

No idea. However, if you are in Palatine, it worth the trip across Lake-Cook Road to get cigarettes, as the Cook County Tax no longer applies. This is at most a 10 minute drive.

Most likely, if you are vacationing, you can take a couple of cartons with you.

I am traveling between US states and I will have paid tax on the cigarettes. I am not checking any luggage in. It would be carry-on.

I don’t think any

I´m 16 and I´ll be flying to germany form mexico carrying 200 cigarettes in the checked lugage(shouldn´t be a problem because the mexican authorities are asleep at the button) but will the germans cause promblems when I get there and secondly can I carry an aditional box of cigarettes(20 cigarettes) in my pocket or carry on?

Most countries allow one carton or 200 cigarettes duty-free, you can bring extra cartons but should declare them and pay the duty. I seriously doubt if any customs agent will quibble over one extra pack.

I want to purchase cartons of cigarettes and save at the same time. Does anyone knows a trusted website where I can buy Newport brand cigarettes? Thanks in advanced.

I beleive it’s illegal to buy and sell tobacco or firearms online. They are strictly enforced by the Feds. Plus each state has their own tax laws governing them. I thought of growing my own but found out that is illegal also! lol Think I will just quit and go crazy! State disability not too bad! lmao
