It's true. A beer is only half the price of a cigarette, grocery store price. He should give you two.

However, the cigarette to beer ratio is opposite in bars.

How much do cigarettes cost for you!?

[–] can@beehaw.org 3 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (1 children)

Almost equivalent to $12 USD where I'm at. You could get a pack for $9 when I started.

But still, a beer is like half that.

Half of a single cigarette or half of $12?

[–] can@beehaw.org 1 points 2 years ago

Half of $12 (roughly)

Are you comparing the price of a single cigarette to a single bottle of beer?

[–] bstix 3 points 2 years ago

Yes, and while it's obviously a bit of a joke, the prices have been like that when beer is on sale. Cigarettes are never on sale.
