While I was at my local B&M I was shocked at the price of tins compared to what I pay online. When I asked the gentleman behind the counter what Colorado's tax was he told me 40% my jaw hit the floor I know that other states tax is higher but I did not expect that. So I can buy a tin for lest say 8 bucks online and pay around 5 to 6 in shipping I will still save around a Dollar. the average price for 7 seas at the B&M was 16 and some change plus sales tax.
Now I say I as surprised about this only because the Antis don't really push here or I just don't see it. I know Colorado is known as One of the fittest states in the U.S. But almost every where I look the are smoke shops people smoking cigars, and While driving around today I passed 3 cars where the driver where smoking pipes.
On the plus side I cant seem to find any Info that Colorado is planing on raising the tax. I guess what I am trying to say is that a High tax is not going to stop smoking here. The people Like to play hard and and enjoy the finer things in life. Welcome to Colorado You can't smoke inside a bar but no one is going to make you smoke 15 feet from the door ether. ::
But a 40% tax makes my TAD put on the breaks when I want to buy all the tins I see. I think I lost my train of thought a Paragraph Back. ::
