I went to a yet unknown to me B&M today at the suggestion of my brother.

I was dissapointed when I realized they ONLY carry CCs.

Lmaotf.

I know a few brothers here who'd hate for that to happen to them. Lol.





Sorry if any of you find this post offensive. I just find such cultural difference hillarious.

Oh that isn't even a joke. I've had his conversation with a few of the brothers here. CC prices here are deadly and to top it off it is only limited to a selection of the big common names as usual.

Sometimes you get lucky and get affordable CCs but otherwise you are right its ridiculous.

I have seen cohiba esplendidos for over 75$ downtown Montréal. :(

Oh ya stuff like that is the norm. Worse yet is when we do find NCs here the prices are just as bad. When I say just as bad I mean CC and worse.
Yeah I am always shocked when I read here about a "cheap smoke" that is 13$+ locally... and 50$ cigars is kinda usual. Particularly downtown.

Oh I know. So jealous of our southern brothers just because of that. Some of the boxes they get cost the same as our singles do. Now that is bull shat.

I moved to the US. Haha!

But in all fairness, I did see a CAO LX2 with a price tag of $18 last time I was 'looking' in Canada. I about shat in my pants!

It depends if it gets caught at the boarder or not. So if it's sent as a gift but not labelled as sticks then we are tax free but if it gets caught we have to pay and sometimes they just keep it period.

I think we're ok on gifts, but when ordering online the import taxes double the price.

Now... I am looking at the whole FDA ordeal and figure they want to copy us. I sure hope you guys don't end up with the same treatment.

That's terrible.... I never really had any idea, makes me want to stock up even more
