Title: Tobacco shops and prices
Post by: chorleyboy on June 14, 2008, 17:14:41 PM

Hiya
Cant find out about cigarettes and tobacco on here, probably looking in wrong place again.
Please could you give ma an idea of price of 200 cigs, international brand or local, or both, and 50g of tobacco?
Wheres the best place to buy them, or is it a set price everywhere for tobacco products?

Ste, tobacco addict :(

Viceroy Blue - (a popular Turkish brand) 200 = 27.5 YTL
Marlboro Light  200 = 50YTL

Prices are about the same all over. Best for range of choice is supermarkets or one of the wholesalers on the Oludeniz Road in Tasyaka.

Thanks KKOB

What about the 50g tobacco pouches?

Hey, those turkish brand cigarettes are really cheap.

I don't know about the prices of baccy, sorry.

The Viceroy Blues are at the better end of the quality brands. There are far cheaper brands available, but you can imagine what they smoke like.

I usually buy my Dad's baccy on the plane.  It's cheaper than the Duty Free and I've never found it in Fethyie yet.

That is true, but fear not, I am thinking of adding an outside forum, with patio heaters and even ashtrays on the walls.

Thanks for your help, and once again the laughs on here.
At the risk of incurring the wrath of the chairman, will you need wall brackets to fix the ashtrays to the walls?:D

You can buy in the duty fre in dalaman, approx £16 for british/american cigs and near enough same price for baccy, you can get the duty free in Dalaman when you land.

As Anne says, it's cheaper on the plane, not only that you are certain of the genuine article, we bought some in Hisaronu years ago, nobody would smoke it, it was that bad, i even gave it to my partners daughter, cos she smokes anything, she threw it away. Alan
