How Much is a Pack of Cigarettes In Las Vegas
Doing better with the smoking. Used to smoke a pack and a half every day, but after several failed attempts I've now cut back to "social smoking", a few cigarettes once or twice a week.
I know the moment I hit the tarmac in Las Vegas I'll be heading for the nearest cigarette stand. Generally, what's the price range out there for a pack of Marlboro Lights?

It's my experience that cigarettes are usually cheaper in Vegas. The last time I went I brought a few packs and paid more for them at home, in Houston, than they cost in Vegas. I think they're like $3.00-$3.50 a pack.
Crazy!

Good for you that you don't smoke a pack and a half a day anymore. Since you've come this far, why not give it up completely? It's so easy to slip back and smoke just a few more and a few more, then you're right back where you started. Do your health and your wallet a favor and quit completely.

I don't think he was asking for advice on quitting. Al - cigarettes will definitely be cheaper in Las Vegas than in NYC. If you purchase them in the casino, they'll run around $5 per pack. They'll be cheaper outside of your hotel or casino.

I've always had a theory, that the radical non-smokers are really ex-smokers who are afraid they might start again if they smell a little smoke.
Why do I continue to smoke? A few cigarettes now and then don't hurt anyone. Nobody ever died from smoking a pack every ten days.
To those who answered the question, thanks -- I'll figure about $5.

The last part about "no one has ever died from smoking a pack every ten days" is not true, Al.
Lung cancer is a process which starts with a cell mutation, and the number of cells which must reproduce to replace the ones damaged by the smoke increases with the number of cigarettes smoked.
But the necessary mutations which cause lung cancer can be induced by only a few years of regular use. The latency period, however, can be many years.
The point is that you are already at least at moderate risk for lung cancer if you've been smoking for several years.
Every additional pack just adds to your total risk.
And the old saying that 5-7 years after quitting your risk goes back down to that of a non-smoker is now known to be UNtrue.
