Here they're about US $6.50, but in Washington they're about $10.
Most people here do not buy local cigarettes. They go across the river to Kentucky. And we do have the sporadic places that are immune to the law, being tobacco shoppes that had already been around for X number of years. But they are mostly for cigar and pipe smokers.
Should there be a law against smoking? In parks and such I certainly agree. But pubs? I think perhaps the owners should have the right to decide. Or not, I really do not care that much anymore.
