Nebraska............New Mexico

I'm from Eastern Nebraska where they average $3.50-$4.00for Marlboro Lights and the ones considered "off" brand usually run $2.80-$3.50 per pack.

I am traveling to New Mexico this week and would like to know the price in Albuquerque and surrounding area.

I think this website is awesome because it never used to be an issue until the last 10 years ago or so. But if you're a smoker, you could definitely get hit with sticker shock if you didn't stock up before going to certain areas, such as Chicago.....I couldn't believe how much I had to pay for a pack. Needless to say, I now bring my own when going to Chi-town. They can get their tax money from someone else besides me.

And regarding the unecessary comments from people stating that this form is "encouraging minors".....sorry to say, if a minor stumbles across this forum, it wasn't on accident and I'd bet my life savings that they already smoke.

In closing, I'd like to state that I don't advocate smoking whatsoever, but if it weren't for us pitiful smokers, imagine how much higher EVERYONE's taxes would be.
