Je-zus! £7 for a 20deck now.
I quit new years 2008 at about £5 a deck of L&B's an I thought that was a rip off.

Just shows those that persisted are been made to make up the quitters share. Its getting to be that you've got to be pretty well off to be able to afford to smoke a pack a day, which for me was quite do-able.

EDIT: £2548.00 a year if you smoked 20 a day, thats astonishing!!!

Our local newsie used to sell them to us kids individually.

10p for a B and H snout. Bargain.

Of course if you could afford a pack of 20 you were the bees knees. You would also keep that pack for months and just keep filling it up with your 10's.

Better explain to our USA readers that "fag"means something rather different here.
Nothing at all to do with gardening of the ascending variety.
