Hello! Yes it is. When I arrived here - a smoker (cough cough), cigarettes cost $0.45 (in US dollars) and I had been paying $6.25 in the States. Well, I quit smoking about 5 years ago and they were $11.00 in local pesos. They now cost about $60 pesos per pack according to my son. His mother still smokes.

Glad you managed to give up then!. I gave up 3 years ago, but I am still addicted to nicotine (I vape).
