LittleKitty

Captain Darling

Not anymore the're not. As of last monday, they are 7.75 due to ministerial order stopping cheap fags. This affects all the cheaper ones - mayfair, pallmall, richmond, lambert and butler etc etc.

Amber leaf is now 4.20 for a box with the papers included inside.

Funkygreendogs

Sound, i have €5,71 exactly - and thats mostly from inside the couch. Do they sell this amberleaf everywhere yeah? dont want to do in counting pennies like a bum only to be like 3euros short...

ScumLord

I get the 12.5g pack of light blue drum normally. It's less than a fiver including a packet of papers. Lasts about 2 days or so.

TPD

The box of amber leaf is shíte, I don't even smoke and I know that. No seal, so the tobacco is dry as a baked turd after an hour or so.

WHAT?? even pallmall (its dirt, but it, like 2 euro in spain!)

right, ill be on the amberleaf for a while yet!!

I'm sitting here with a pile of it flashed at 7.15. I has to be collected by the cig company and destroyed as its now illegal to sell it (unless you want to give me 7.75). Its some formula based on the weight and this dictates most if not all cigs are minimum 7.75.

Glad I quit smoking when the smoking ban came in. I remember buying ten fags for 1.24, and boxes of matches were 6p. You'd have enough for 10 fags, a box of matches and a bottle of score orange all for £1.50.

soundsham

i remember 10 smokes and matches for 90p, so the skivvy you got to cycle to the shop got 10p tip:D

Prof.Badass

btw, how many grams of tobacco is in a box of cigarettes?

Mayfair ftw.

Otis Driftwood

As a hardened rollie smoker,any of the cheap tobacco - Amber Leaf,Cutters Choice,Sweet Afton etc are horrible.

Golden Virginia is widely available in 12.5 gram pouches.

Golden Virginia FTW!

Hamiltonion

Has to be drum light blue and rizla red ftw, can make it last too

Kradock

A mate brought me back a couple of pouches of Drum from Spain , €3.50 for 50 grammes . Somethng like €17 euros here.

Saying that I am going to try and give them up again , Might try that Champix , I'll be able to go swimming running , cycling , play tennis , but I bet the string is really hard to light.

They might as well they are bleeding everything else dry.

waitinforatrain

Golden virginia boxes are 11.5grams €3.70, includes blue rizla. Amber Leaf is 12.5grams €4.20, includes some skins that are like green rizla. Golden Virginia ftw, Amber Leaf is very sweet.

JIZZLORD

i like neither. i smoked amber leaf for ages until i moved onto cutters choice. Though the above are both nicer than drum!

Helix

if you know anyone going to spain in the next while get them to get you 10 50g pouches of drum light for €30

itll last you well over 6 months

Mr Benevolent

Wait, I've just gotten the joke. It's free to roll tobacco!

Snowie

Golden virginia it comes in a little bale of 11.5 g at 3.70 euros comes with a packet of blue rizzla to...... You see them in some shops in ciggerate boxs....

Never liked drum...drum light was more barable but my favourite was Samson...thankfully i now have the money for real fags but might as well give up before I go back to poverty again (college)

i think "real smokes " are stupid there 8.50 for 20 and they taste rottin, where as most rolling tobacco with a filter is much nicer

stateofflux

yea drum light is around $3.90 for 12.5 pack....i think cutters choice is around the same but i find it a bit too heavy....but if you have holiday in spain planned you would get 5 times that for the same price....
