Smokers, a couple of questions
1 What brand do you smoke
2 What led you to that brand 3 As prices inevitably go up would you go Generic or Quit first? |

Don't know about the currents, but as a former smoker, I loved Camel Lights. Thought Marlboro Lights tasted too dry, Reds were to strong, but CL's always tasted fresher and didn't suck all of moisture out of my mouth.
But I'm done....

I smoke Winson Lights
They are naturally smooth and I like the taste over Camel and Marlboro. I have smoked the generic brands and I dunno I doubt I could just quit so Yea I would smoke them if I had to I guess. |

I don't smoke hardly at all anymore (usually, with a drink while grilling), so I am more for quality than cost now. A single pack of Nat Shermans will last me close to two months.
Why Nat Sherman? American brand, high quality tobacco, and smoother/longer-burning than anything that you can grab at a convenience store. I am at the point where it's strictly for enjoyment, so like a good cigar, I'm not going to be overly-sensitive to price escalation. |

Trust me. A 2-month old Nat Sherman Classic is still better than a brand new Marlboro/Camel/Winston/etc.

Aside from cigars, they have several varieties of cigarettes, and their MCD's are actually made with cigar-grade tobacco. Locally, you can only buy them at a tobacconist, but I don't know what kind of dealer network they have nationally. In terms of cost, a pack runs close to $6, but it's well worth it if you enjoy a good smoke. |

I roll my own. In NY, cigs are over 6 bucks a pack. Rolling my own, they're a little over a dollar a pack. They taste good,too.

I smoke Marlboro Reds, about the only brand name I recognize here in Mexico. As for price raises, it would have to go up quite a bit, right now it is still less than 2.50 a pack to smoke down here.

I am smoking Pall Mall Menthol Lights at this tme. I smoked Camel Lights for the longest time. I have to go over across the State Line to Idaho to buy smokes because they are so much cheaper. The generics are about the same price over there. I picked Pall Mall because they are the least expensive right now. I was smoking Camel Menthol Lights until I switched a few months ago.
