Indubitably:I once grabbed packets of snuff tobacco given to my college from a garbage can back in 1987 to resell with my misoriented brother-in-law...
This is a repetitive biz, no?
I ended up throwing them out.

P.S. Wait. I meant my stepbrother. Somehow, all of the above applies...
I was ordering loose tobacco all the way from Australia because it was cheaper than going to the store here in Sweden to buy it, but then customs got wise and the gig was up. Now I buy whole leaf locally, which is ridiculously cheap. About $20 for 3 months' worth.
Indubitably:chaosweaver: I think that's an indication that it's time to quit smoking. If you have to travel excessively in order to be able to afford cheap smokes.
Just quit.
I did.
However, when I get a terminal diagnosis for cancer, I'm smoking like a banshee outside and away from my progeny until they pry it from my cold, dead hands...
fark big tobacco. the guv'mint uses your habit against you to tax the shiat out of you. you love giving your money to the guv'mint keep using tobacco.
i quit what 2 months ago and every day i want to put my head right though a wall. i miss it so much. only good thing is huge savings and now i can breathe really well, kid you not. i was smoking 2-3 packs/day for some 40 years. cold turkey, cha-cha. miss it bad. it owns me.
Unobtanium:What's that country that starts with "D" where they don't sell tobacco at all?
Djibouti?
CSB time: Years ago I was visiting a friend in France, and we heading to Switzerland to hike around for a few days. The border crossing wasn't even manned on the way out of France, which was nice since my friend had brought some treats from his last Amsterdam trip. On the way back, we sure enough got stopped at the same crossing, and every bag in the car was searched. They grilled him about why he had a lighter in the car, and I thought for sure we were screwed. I could hear the guy behind me open up the zippered compartment in my friend's bag where he was keeping his illegal stuff, and.. nothing happened. Apparently they were only looking for tobacco, which we didn't have, and they didn't give a crap about anything else. Weird.
So they smuggled tabacco from Dubai into England and only got community service????? If it had been the other way around prob looking at 200 lashes and possible prison time.
jenlen:Easy solution, stop taxing the fark out of it and you won't have to worry about smuggling.
That would be the intelligent thing to do. You're not going to be able to get politicians to do stuff intelligently, think things through, or consider the principle of unintended consequences.
That's pretty much good advice, no matter what crimes you're committing.
Don't take pictures of yourself smuggling cocaine. Don't label your folders of kiddie porn "NAKED PRETEENS!!!" Don't post videos of you & your buds robbing convenience stores on Facebook. Don't Tweet pictures of your dong to your girlfriend. It's not rocket surgery, folks.

That's the first thing I thought of as well.

Yeah. Deny that you're carrying 650+pounds of tobacco. No, you didn't think your suitcases were a bit numerous and heavy.
Really, just act surprised. All you packed was spare underwear, how could you possible know?
