A friend of mine has asked me to bring some cigarettes back from my holiday for her.

How much are 200 Fortuna cigarettes and where's the best place in the New Town to buy them?

Thanks in advance.

Hi Miss Sunshine, current prices for all brands of cigarettes can be found at

http://www.eurotabaco.net

This is also the best place to buy them IMO. Linda

yes 16 is about the limit so i would stick to that if you dont want the hastl.
always go through the BLUE chanel you are EU citizens and should be able to pass freely, although i think customs can stop you anywhere even far away from the airport.

I've just found out today that they have reduced Golden Virginia from €45 to €35 for 10 x 50g packs.
It's still showing €45 on the eurotabacos but it's definitely only €35.

As far as I know, it's only Golden Virginia, my sister-in-law who lives in Benidorm told me this morning.

hi, has anyone got any info on the best shops to buy cigarettes. i am also interested to hear which was your best shop in benidorm as i love browsing and if you have any shopping tips. thanks :D

The prices are fixed by the government so will be the same everywhere. However if you are intending paying by credit card, some shops charge commission while others don't.

We bought from the small shop in the Old Town on the same street as the Avenida Hotel and they didn't charge commission.

Yes Audrey, they are the guidelines although if they are for personal use or for presents then there isn't really a limit though I have read that you risk been interrogated by customs if you exceed this amount.
