The warnings haven't deterred me. If I get a pack with a warning that I find offensive I simply ask the clerk for a different pack. Can't do that when buying cartons, though. Actually, I know a number of people who have bought those old-style cigarette cases.
I'm probably going to go to rolling my own within the next few months now that the cheapest cartons around are C$53. du Maurier doesn't sell tins of tobacco and I'm slowly trying other brands to find one I like.
Also, can you add me to your smokers ping list?
Thanks!
