WOW, I just did the math

Here's some more math;

The average pack of smokes is 6.5 cubic inches and aren't very heavy
A typical semi-truck van measures 576" long (48') x 96" wide x 110" high....

How many packs of smokes can you smuggle in one trip? What is your minimum and maximum expected per/pack profits

LOTS, and if you order the tobacco and cigarette tubes today, while it is still legal, the future profits could be astronomical.

I love capitalism!

Here's another math problem. I can't do it because I don't have a pack of cigarettes around (I smoke cigars). How much does a pack of cigarettes weigh? I seem to remember it's 1.5 oz., or something like that. If that's so, $7 x 10.1 (approx) = $77/pound. Still not quite as expensive as silver.

77981.53846154

(Of course, I'm probably dead wrong as per usual :-)

2-3 dollars per pack.

Just a few more trips and I can be a multi-millionaire inside of a week.
