How much did a pack of cigarettes cost in 1977?

Answer 1

Oh, dude, in 1977, a pack of cigarettes cost around $0.60 to $0.80. But hey, don't go digging in your couch cushions for spare change to time travel back to '77 for cheap smokes. It's like, not worth it, man.

Answer 2

Well, honey, in 1977 a pack of cigarettes cost around $0.60 to $0.80. But let me tell you, that's just a drop in the bucket compared to the health issues and money you'll be burning through if you keep up that nasty habit. Just sayin'.

Answer 3

I was wondering about this too. Here is a site to check costs: http://www.cdc.gov/tobacco/data_statistics/tables/economics/cigtax.htm

Around 1970 it was an average of 38 cents a pack - probably around $3.50 a carton and a bit higher through vending machines. I remember paying 45 cents a pack at our local restaurant's vending machine.

I worked at a self-service Gulf station in northeast Tennessee around this time (1977 and 1978) and recall that a gallon of regular Gulf gasoline and a pack of cigarettes (the major brands like Marlboro, Salem, Newport, etc sold for the same price US $0.479 (forty seven and nine/tenth cents each).

Jimmy Carter was President of the United States and the minimum wage was also $2.65 or there about and I could purchase approximately (before payroll taxes) five gallons of gasoline for one hour of wages.
