The Cigarette Thread

1/6 get lung cancer. The doc walks into the consulting room, and all you can do is try to get him to estimate how long 'til you're gone forever.

But there's more!–Free bonus: ED.

Please stop trying to de-rail this thread into a smokers vs. non-smokers argument. This thread is for smokers to talk about smoking, not exchange argumentative words with those that don't smoke.

If you want to argue the merits of smoking, start another thread.

Smokes are pretty cheap here in the Philippines, I usually pay about $1.75 (70 pesos) for a pack of Marlboros, you can get a pack of lucky Strikes for about half that. You can smoke in most bars, taverns and night clubs, the ones that don't allow it always have a smoking area just outside of the club. Reminds me the good old days back home, if only they would ban smart phones in the clubs!

Nice info.

That is almost the strongest case to visit the Philippines I have seen.

Back on my list.

Maybe he's beta which can also be a hazard to your health. The amount of stress and anxiety caused by fear of approaching takes more off your life than a few smokes here and there.

I've smoked for ten years now. I have mostly smoked Marlboro reds through out. I switched it up for a little while to camel wides and would throw in the parliament full flavors here and there as well. But them good ol cowboy killers are my stick of choice. And I definitely taste the difference outside the states. None that I have tried compare to the reds in the states and I've tried many from different countries. They taste different country to country period. They taste lighter in most Latin American countries (the filters being a tad bit longer may have something to do with it). I find myself cutting the filters occasionally to get that stronger taste. When I'm outside the states, sometimes they don't sell Marlboros in certain stores and I need a smoke, I'll go with lucky strike reds to hold me over.

I've had a lot of luck lately finding 75 cent off packs at local gas stations and convenience stores. Seems the local stores get a few cartons of 75 cents off per pack about once per week. I usually buy a whole carton and I'm set until the following week when I catch another deal. I still think smokes are overpriced but it's nice saving a bit of money.

You can never go wrong with Camel Turkish Silver

Give these a try if you haven't. The imports from Vietnam are better than the ones made in the states...hands down the best cigarette I've come across. Craven "A"

I'm taking a break from my white boy cigs with a couple packs of newpoats. I like mixing it up from time to time.

Try these. Real old-school dope street style.

KOOLS are the Reds of Menthol:

Just picked up 3 cartons of cigarettes from duty-free

1) Sobranie Black Russian 100s

2) Sobranie Cocktails 100s

3) Davidoff Classic (I was contemplating picking up the Davidoff Magnums, but it was almost double the price)

I only smoke as a prop, anyone but me ever tried Djarum or cigarillos?

 

[Vaun]

Parliaments, 2 or 3 a night, some days dont smoke at all. Its a way to relax.

I rarely smoke, but when I do, its Marlboro Flavor Codes.

They aren't available in Germany, at least I've never seen one so it easily sets me apart. I wanted to buy some cigarettes from duty free so I bought a carton of these. Came out to €2.20 a pack. I've gone through two packs in 3 months.

Next time I'll probably buy something else next time I go through duty free, but its a big investment for me considering I have no idea how a particular cigarette tastes before I buy 200 of them.

Cigarillos are like the polar opposite of cigars. Only cheap and homeless people smoke them. Avoid.

DVY, how much did those Sobranies cost?

 

[Menace]

Has anyone tried a portable hookah? It's like these giant e-cigarettes. They come in lots of flavors and you get about 600 puffs before you throw it away. Costs $7 where I am.

 

[Vicious]

augen seven, then you have likely never tried cigarillos from proper tobacco stores. You might as well be saying that all vodka is vile from the experience of drinking Yeltsin vodka.

This thread makes me want to start smoking again!

 

[Teekay]

I've smoked for about 20 years now. Tried different brands and settled on Camels, Luckies, and roll-your-own with Golden Virginia being my preferred brand of tobacco.

That said I'm now on e-cigs. Not sure if it belongs to this thread but does anyone know of a brand of liquid that doesn't leave that damn sweet after-taste in your mouth? I'd prefer if they didn't put any flavor to it - it feels silly to smoke berries or apple.

 

[DVY]

@augenshen- 78 dollars/ carton of black sobranie, 72 dollars/carton of cocktails. All of this was purchased at the duty-free shop in Tel-Aviv Airport.

I don't even think its possible to buy these in a lot of countries.

 

[scotian]

Has anyone on here ordered cigs by the carton on-line? In Canada, we can't get Marlboros (that I know of) and I was smoking these Marlboro menthols called Ice Blast, they're the best cigs I've ever smoked and want to order some cartons.

Roll your own like a boss. It's amazing how impressed girls are by simple feats like rolling a smoke in 20 seconds.

I've tried the E-Hookahs. They sell them at a lot of delis by me.

Some of them last weeks and some have broken on the 1st day.

I've tried ones in Mint Chocolate and cherry I believe...not going to lie it's kind of fun.

I've brought them to clubs and girls always ask to try it.
