Once, long ago, one was able to purchase cigarettes individually. However, it was found to be too enabling to vulnerable youth, so packaging of cigarettes in sizes easy for youth to obtain were removed.

To the best of my knowledge, the use of "pack" is meant to be short for "twenty-pack" (the standard size pack of cigarettes) instead of "soft pack." In which case, they're asking for a 20-pack of cigarettes in a flip-top box, which to them makes perfect grammatical sense.
