[QUOTE="TxCoUnTrYbOy, post: 309856, member: 352"] I have some news of relief for you if you use smokeless tobacco. I was talking to the lady in the store while i was loading up on snuff for a week out of town about this. The current tax rate on smokeless tobacco in Texas is around 35% of the manufacturers price. The new rate will be 40%, so its not much of an increase. I cant figure out how much exactly the increase will be because I dont know what the retailers pay, and it varies by brand. Cigarettes are different. They will go up $1.00 for every pack. For most, that will be nearly $5.00 per pack. A lot of those anti tobacco groups are saying this is gonna make people quit using tobacco, but I seriously doubt it will make people quit. It will just make people cut back on other things to get that nicotine fix. [/QUOTE]
