How can I get cigarettes even though I'm 18?

Question

My friend gets them, but I don't know how she gets them. Is there some trick that needs to be known?

Don't answer me with "stop smoking" because I'm only buying cigarettes to smoke once in a while.

Answer 1

depends on which state you live in. some you have to be 19 to buy them, others, you only have to be 18. tennessee is like that, you only have to be 18.  but where i live, you have to be 19. i dont know which others are without looking them up. but, pretty much all you need is an i.d.

Answer 2

get someone to buy them for you and make friends with people who smoke.

Answer 3

i love it when dumbasses who smoke end up killing themselves. and in the end i get the joy of thinking "jokes on you"

Answer 4

Starting to smoke today is a real dumb *** thing to do, you'll spend the next 30 years of your life watching your health get worse and worse.  Are you looking forward to yellow rotting teeth, stained fingers, terrible breath, stinking clothes, coughing up flem every morning, always being out of breath, lung cancer, emphysema,  being connected up to a respirator, using up health resources that could go to someone who really needs them?  Will the cigarette companies pay your medical bills and then the bill for your funeral which will happen 20 years before your non smoking friends?  Doesn't seem like much of a life to me.

Answer 5

yeah she can buy them because the legal age in the US to buy cigarettes  is 18, like to buy alcohol is 21.

Answer 6

Well where i live you can buy them at 18. Just go to a license branch and get a state ID. All you have to do is give them that. If you have to be older where you live than i guess you could just ask a friend or explaine to your parents that you are and adult and you know smoking is bad for you but could they please by them. Sometimes you can also just ask ppl that are about to go in the gas station if they will get them for you. Hope i helped!

Smoking is addictive, you'll be hooked before long.
