I remember buying them on the ship when I was in the Navy. As soon as we were 50 miles from the U.S., federal taxes no longer applied. I could buy a carton of Marlboros for $4.00. Granted, that was 20 years ago, but it was a drastic savings even then.

A PACK of Marlboros goes for around $6.00 in Chicago now. Like I'll ever buy smokes there. fucking thieves.
I was in Korea in 1968 and cigs were $2.00 per carton. And the carton was wrapped in cellophane like the individual packs.
