Do shops take smokes back?

    New in this section here, so my apologies, if the following question looks a bit stupid.

    I gave up the fags a few days, until now, the e cigs work fine for me.

    But I still have 6 packs of smokes in the drawer, won't use them again, so I have to get rid of them somehow. Throwing them out would be a waste of money and nobody I personally know wants them.

    So short but sweet, would there be a chance, any shop would take them off me and re sell them? I got them through Tesco Online shopping, receipts? Nowhere to be found :confused:

    As far as I know, selling smokes though the usual channels like Adverts.ie or Gumtree is not really legal, I suppose, that's why I was thinking to ask one of the local shops.

    Thanks for your advise.

    Would your online order not be kept as part of your Tesco Account?

    Some of the people here smoke and vape - you could check with the moderators if you could put them up for trade here in the forum and see if maybe someone would trade you some vaping gear instead ?

    I think, you would be able to trace back old orders alright, but then, would the delivery driver just take them back and put in a refund for me?

    Guess, I have to ring customer service then ;)

    I didn't think about the possibility of trading yet, thanks :)

    Due to counterfeiting you'll struggle to find a shop that will refund or exchange tobacco or call credit.

    I am unsure of the boards policy on this so I will simply say if anyone wants these cigarettes contact Lars via pm (I believe they are menthol cigarettes) and close the thread.
