    How many bowls from a 50g tin?

    A middle of the road 50g tin of tobacco here costs $19.35 and a middle of the road premium cigar costs $11.38 using the current exchange rates. So over here pipes start to make financial sense quick, while the 2nd cigar is halfway smoked. I really don't want a 1,000 euro a month cigar bill...
