I was amazed too... if this was done by the board of equalization... 33% is fair and equal taxation across the board?

That is great news! That will cut off about a buck a cigar for premium sticks. Lets see if we see it at our B&Ms here.

great news for now, have a feeling the legislators will raise it back up this next budget to try make up the huge deficit we have.

It will be interesting if it's past down to the consumer.

Man, if that's true, it's still not a good enough price to get me to buy in state.

Well let's hope it does have a positive effect and reduces the prices.
