WARSAW — Cigarette prices are going up by an average of 75% in Poland today because of rising production costs, the official PAP news agency said.
The cheapest cigarettes will cost 17 cents for a pack of 20, while the major luxury brand will retail at 62 cents, a hefty price in a country where many people earn under $5 a day.
Cigarettes have been in short supply for some months, and long lines have been forming for the rare deliveries.
