Hi Lisa

I remember paying about 15 pesos for the monte crisco mini cigars at the store at the resort. If you wait till the duty free it was going for about 10 cuban convertible pesos .Remember your allowed to import 50 cigars legally. The black market for Cuban cigars is huge so do yourself a favour and avoid them at all costs. They aint worth it. There is no quality control over what your buying and they will be confiscated if you are caught trying to export them. So never mind.

Cigarettes are cheap too. Hollywood Blues *milder smokes* was about 1.50 convertible pesos a pack. If you buy them at the duty free they are about 10 convertible pesos a pack .
Any more questions?

Hope this helps

Funny thing is I quit smoking last October

:applause:
