I bought my first pack of (purchased) cigarettes at the age of 9 from a vending machine for $0.25, and got a new penny inside the celphane wrapper for change.
What is this world coming to?
I guess pretty soon, we'll be conducting Twinky stings with fat people as the operatives at taxpayer expense.

they are not far from than in England except its ice cream be sold "too close" to

"What is this world coming to?"
I wonder that on a daily basis. I was on another thread awhile ago, someone mentioned making ashtrays in school.
I made a couple of those, and built a .54 cal. Hawken rifle in shop class. (with Thompson parts)
Can you imagine doing that today? And ,heck I'm not that old. I started chewing snuff pretty young.But the secret police weren't prowling the streets then, either.
They were $0.28 when I bought my first pack at the age of 11.
Four of us would chip in.
I could go on, but I died at the age of 30 from smoking. Just ask any smoking Nazi.
