The US govt will only let me bring 400 cigarettes into the country from Mexico, I am assuming that they mean individual cigarettes, not packs.


20 and they are more cheap than in the USA. Malb cost around 2.5 dlls, and if you have a Sa-´s card you can buy it even more cheap, by package.

Something I Don't See Every Day.

I was fired because I accidentally sold a pack of cigarette to a minor during a very rush hours and I was distracted. Can I get unemployment benefit? Thanks for your help.


Apply; let the UE office and your employer fight over it. Odds are that is "cause" and you won't be elligible; but some employers are already maxed out on UE and won't fight you.

Can anyone tell me what the numbers at the bottom of a cigarette pack represent ?

I've been in the restaurant business for a few years and been asked many questions. Today a client asked me the very question I now ask you... and I had no idea apart from guessing that it was the batch number ??? If anyone knows what the correct answer is please be so kind as to inform/educate me !
The number usually comprises of 9-10 digits. The first 2-3 are letters. I am not referring to the barcode which is on the right of the box. Interested only in the one at the bottom.


the serial number i think

Don't. Cigs give you cancer. Eat a carrot instead.

What will happen to one if one smokes only one pack of cigarette?
Meanwhile at Marie's appartment, Paris

I know there are side effects. I'm just wondering how severe the side effects would be or if one would get any side effects by smoking only one pack of cigarettes.


each ciggarett takes 5 minutes of your life [or so they estimate]

this pack could also get you addicted, and needing for more..

or even just ONE pack can give you lung cancer in the long run.

Don't do it, my grandpa died of lung cancer when he was 35, and he never smoked a day in his life, that was just from second hand smoke, so imagine how bad actually taking it straight in would be!

I've just got fired for forgetting to ask for ID when selling a pack of cigarette?

I've just got fired for forgetting to ask for ID when selling a pack of cigarette to a secret shopper. Can I get unemployment benefit and if not, what other benefit that I may qualified for? Please help.

Probably not. Fired for cause. Try filing anyway and let UE and your x boss fight over it. he may not bother.

Nothing other than welfare if you qualify




Fed. Judge Blocks Graphic Cigarette Pack Warnings

Cigarette warning labels may not be going graphic anytime soon.

A federal judge has issued a temporary injunction against a regulation that requires cigarette packaging to contain graphic images. Those images include diseased lungs and a picture of a child that warns, “Tobacco smoke can harm your children.”

They are also adorned with the number 1-800-QUIT-NOW.

The graphic images and new textual warnings are supposed to cover about half of each cigarette pack by September 2012. But the temporary injunction, and any appeals, will likely set that date back.

At issue is whether the cigarette warning labels constitute compelled speech under the First Amendment. The judge agreed with the tobacco companies, citing the size and emotional nature of the images. He found the labels to be an excessive means of promoting the government’s anti-smoking message.

But critics warn that the judge misinterpreted the science behind the labels. Scientific evidence suggests that graphic cigarette warning labels are effective at discouraging “nonsmokers from starting to smoke, and motivating smokers to quit,” according to the Campaign for Tobacco-Free Kids.

If true, this could factor into the appellate court’s decision should the Food and Drug Administration decide to appeal. The Constitution demands that the labels be narrowly tailored to serve a compelling government interest. If the graphic labels are scientifically the best way to convey health warnings, they may withstand this requirement.

Even if the new cigarette warning labels don’t ultimately make the cut, you can still expect the current labels to change. The tobacco companies did not object to the new textual phrases so long as they appear by themselves.
