I quit smoking since finding out my dad has moderate emphesema (sp?) from smoking since he was my age. But of course it depends on brand. Here in suburbs of Chicago, $4.50~$5.00 a pack.

As of 2.5 years ago, I no longer know :) If you have a Native American reservation near you, you can get killer deals there, since they're tax-exempt and the majority of the price is tax.

What do you think I am doing with all my miles?

I am saving up for an iron lung!

;)

i have about 3000 camel cash, i was looking on ebay to maybe sell them. here's the deal.
ive seen like 2000 camel cash sold on ebay for like 55 bucks. every 200 camel cash = a carton of smokes if you mail them in.

so 10 cartons for 55 bucks + shipping? helluva deal. stock up and freeze them.

THIS is what i recently got for 900 camel

Don't smoke, no clue. Can't be too expensive since all my friends in high school could afford them :p
