Question for smokers IN oz......
OK, I'm a smoker but fully intend to quit when we start our new life down under! :rolleyes:
Out of curiosity, I wondered how much a pack of 20 say, Marlboro Reds, costs in OZ??? Had heard a rumour they cost more than UK, is this true? :eek: |

They sell them in packs of 25s here which cost me anything between $9.50 - $11.50 depending where i buy. I am giving it up again next week! :rolleyes: I would suggest NOT attempting it when you first arrive as life will be very stressful to start with. Wait till you are more settled otherwise you might become an axe murderer (i would have!!) |

Holidays if I recall are really thin, a bit like smoking a straw. Good luck with giving up. I plan to give up when we get to Oz, but like Linda said, best to get the stress out of the way first. |

Re: Question for smokers IN oz......
and an interesting comparison:
Number of cigarettes that can be bought for the price of a Big Mac, October 2005 You can buy 9 x Peter Jackson cigarette's for the same price as a Big Mac (based on the cost of a 30 pack) Australian Retail Tobacconist Aug/Sept 2005 and McDonalds head office |
