In 1972 I remember buying them in a machine at a gas station for my "babysitter"... for 50 cents.

I quit smoking in 1978 and cigarettes were 55 cents a pack then.

I remember when a pack of cigarettes used to be 75 cents in 1982 in Chicago. That price is a far cry from the modern pack price in the Windy City. lol

What does 50 pack year history mean?

smoked 1 pack of cigarrettes a day for last 50 yrs.Actually it's a little more complicated than what is answered above. Pack-years are calculated by multiplying the number of packs of cigarettes smoked per day by the number of years the person has smoked.A pack-year is smoking 20 cigarettes a day for one year. If someone has smoked 10 cigarettes a day for 6 years, they would have a 3-pack-year history. Someone who has smoked 40 cigarettes daily for 20 years has a 40-pack-year history.So it is actually possible for someone to have a pack-year history that is larger than their actual age.


How much money does the average person spend on tobacco each year?

If a smoker smokes an average of 1 pack per day, and if the average cost per pack is $4.00, the total per year for 365 packs would be $1, 460.00. However, cigarettes per pack varies by State in the USA, and varies worldwide. In higher cost USA States a pack may cost almost $7.00, so one pack per day would cost $2,555.00 for 365 packs in 1 year. However, many smokers buy by the carton, which can reduce costs up to $2.00 per carton (10 packs per carton). If a smoker also uses coupons, they may save 0.50 cents per pack or on up to $3.00 per carton. If a person rolls their own cigarettes, they may save between 1/3 to 1/2 the cost of cigarettes, although federal tax laws have increased the costs of loose tobacco, just as the laws increased the tax on manufactured cigarettes.
