The Philly retailers might suffer but not the distributors. What should happen is smuggling of soft drinks from the adjacent non tax areas
There was a cigarette tax in Phoenix but to avoid it, the owner would drive his station wagon to the suburb town of Mesa and load up on cigarettes without a tax stamp.
I worked there for four years until I graduated and went into the Air Force. No tax agents from the city ever came in during that time to question why we were selling non-taxed cigarettes by not buying his cigarettes in Phoenix.
This scheme was illegal but the amount of the tax versus the volume of cigarettes we sold out of that liquor store resulted in a sizable profit for the owner.
