Most likely CVS looked the the profits they we making on cigarettes and the cost involved in paying for the permits and fees associated with carrying them in their stores...

I can assure you it's a tidy sum...

Every inch of space in a retail outlet needs to be justified...cigs probably didn't meet that criteria...

The CEO is just making a smart PR move...
