Or one acronym: RYO

I switched after hearing the super-tax on cigarettes was on the way. Then loaded way up after hearing the super-tax on RYO tobacco was on the way - and before my favorite supplier (D&R) got out of the business. Still rolling.

When they jacked up the tax on loose cigarette tobacco by 2300%, a lot of people simply switched to the coarser cut pipe tobacco which they say is effectively the same as the cigarette tobacco at half the price.

There’s a RYO place across the road from me. They have a sign out about $20 cartons, I though dang that’s a lot of money (we quit when it got to about $12 carton) then I noticed today in walgreen’s that cigarettes were about $5 a pack. unreal.
