About 1 billion per day (in 2006).

According to the USDA, "Output for 2006 was 484.0 billion cigarettes...", but the consumption was 371 billion pieces for the same year. Calculating the number per day from there is simple division; 371 billion cigarettes divided by 365 days equals 1,016,438,356.16 cigarettes per day.

RE: 400 packs are sold a day.

I think you're a little off... in 1998 (which are the only valid numbers I can come across online) there were 451 billion cigarettes consumed in the U.S. That's 22.5 billion packs of cigarettes sold in one year. Therefore:

22.5b / 365 days = ~ 62,000,000 packs of cigarettes per day

In the US, production and import was 484 billion cigarettes in 2006, with sales of 371 billion pieces for the same year (equal to about 1 billion cigarettes, or 50 million packs per day).

About 980,000 packs. On average 12 cigarettes in a pack.

So around 11,760,000 single cigs are sold a day. Half of those yellow-butts are thrown apon the street.

Disgusting!
