another tobacco price hike +12.5% dec 1st, page-4

Excise duty creeps, and fast - not only tobacco - soon no tourists will come to Australia - can't even drink outside in a restaurant.

It's embarrassing for me. Europeans can't even have a glass of wine outside in comfort.

Bought a $30.00 Cuban for my Brother in Law recently - came in a plastic bag where a picture was implying the consumer was going to get a stroke by smoking it....obviously I've looked after it and packaged it differently but really.

Australia is one of the most conservative countries in the world.

No longer lucky IMO - just crazily taxed and stupidly expensive with an exploding population.

Gone are the days...
