How much is a pack of cigarettes in Chicago? |
Travel Info How much is a pack of cigarettes in Chicago? Travel Tips As a Chicago native, it depends on the county....Chicago is Cook County and most of the packs go for $5.85 and up.....in the county of Dupage, which starts about 20 miles west of Chgo, packs start at about $4.30 (which is were I go).. So there is a difference between Cook County & Dupage Taxes. Others It depends what store you are buying them from, and what brand of cigarettes you want to buy. Some brands (e.g. State Express, Dunhill) are more expensive than others. 6.50 and up They raised the taxes on cigarettes about a year ago, so they now cost at lease $6.50. Too Much ! They average around $7 a pack. The taxes in the city are insane so you can pay up to $9 with tax, but if you are lucky enough to live or work in the suburbs (like Aurora) they are $3.60 issh for a pack of Marlboros. I just left Florida where they were $2.99 a pack, thats pretty awesome. Way too much ! I go to Indiana to get mine, they are less than 1/2 the price. Even if you go out of Cook County,( which is a few miles away) you see a drastic drop in prices. In Wisconsin too, which is only about an hr drive from the city. Its the damn taxes, Chicago residents get slammed with City & County taxes, its crazy! |
