how much do fags cost in France?

[Pevenseagull]

Not as cheap as you think pevenseagull. I cannot give you an exact price but recently the french government has gone to town in a big way to stop people smoking and prices have risen big time. Give me a bit of time and I get you the prices.

 

[Kev the Ape]

very cheap!!! but get the booze even cheaper.

I am currently smoking a packet of Benson & Hedges, bought in France, but sourced from Benelux.

They have a sticky label on the packet with the price - €3,90

E3.90 for ten or twenty?

Bensons are around E6.15 here for 20, and about E3.10 for ten. Depends on the shop, and likely to be hiked another 25 per ten at the budget (December)

€3.90 for twenty. That's £2.77 @ yesterday's tourist exchange rate (£1 = €1.41)

€3.90 for twenty.

Which amounts to £2.66 using todays exchange rate.

 

[CAFC Matt]

Mine from Italy were £2.50 a packet

*moves to France*

Well, actually, it wouldn't be worth it. Would have saved me about 6 quid this year. If even.

Where do you get your Euros, VH? Is there a geezer who sells them cheap in your pub?

 

[Virgo's Haircut]

I just used an online currency converter.

Maybe it's lying to me?

Belgium is cheaper for baccie i believe.

I thought France put their prices right up.

I may be wrong though.

Correct Belgium best value.

However in Tunisia it was £1.20 a pack of ciggies

I thought you'd get excited by this thread but they mean fags in the cigarette term not in the fags as in gays term.
Sorry to dissapoint you pervert

 

[CHAPPERS]

Fags are two a penny in this town....





and goodnight.

 

[Pevenseagull]

I was just thinking of taking up the Argus' day trip for a fiver deal and popping over to Dieppe sometime over the next couple of weeks and trying to get an idea as to if I should go with shopping for life's little luxuries (ciggies and plonk) as top of the agenda or if I should treat l'femme du jour to a romantic day out.

I'm inclined to go for the pundering option

 

[Pevenseagull]

I'm just wondering how much I can carry and if I can stow it anywhere so I can go for a piss at somepoint

Get yourself one of those "little old lady shopping carts" It'll probably hold close to 6000 ciggies...don't know where you'll stash your booze though?!?!?!?
