Yup, Brits have to remember in America not to ask for "a fag", as someone might bring them a homo rather than a cigarette...
I did that when I was first in the USA...
In England, we say 20 Superkings, or 20 Marlboro or whatever... So I walk into a gas station and say err.. 20.... (Look up, and dont recognize the brands) so I say... errr Fags please.
The guy gos 'FAGS!' WTF... I counter with 'Sorry, no I mean Cigarettes'
What? 20 Packs he asks... No, just one I reply... Well fucking say that then !

Welcome to America ! LOL
You can imagine how hard it is for me then with a Scottish accent too.
Even my name is a fuck up. When someone asks and i say "Scott", they go "what was that sorry?"
"Scott"
"huh? oh you mean ScAtt?" (with an A)

Dude in front of me in line at the supermarket today asks for one pack of smokes and one pack of rolling papers. Those were his only items. His bill came to $35 and change.
I was like holy shit. Time to quit eh? "You'd think so" he replied, "but naw, I can afford it."
He had on a work uniform from the telephone system. lol

That's why a lot of people around here buy the native smokes - $18/carton of the generic rollies.
But the prices are what's driving a lot of smokers to try vaping instead.

Well - if something goes wrong during the conversation you can also point with index finger to the shelves and say : I want that ! - and they will give you the pack...
Twenty years ago I can remember smoker friends of mine complaining about having to pay $7 a pack. Since then the tax on cigs has slowly, incrementally, gone way way up. Not because "Canada taxes everything to death" like you're probably thinking, it's that Canada sees this particular product as being bad for your health and bad for putting a long-term strain on the health care system, thus costing all Canadians.
So now if you (the broad, general 'you') want to smoke you're going to pay massively.
@ ********** -- Re: vaping --- yes, people here are moving towards that more and more. It won't be taxed like cigs, BUT... the no-smoking laws in existence are going to apply to vaping as well, at least here in Manitoba. IE; no smoking/vaping in public places, bars, restaurants, etc.
