Buying cartons for a party or group order
Quick answer: For a group, work out cigarettes per person per hour first, then convert to cartons (200 each). As a rough planning figure, allow 1 carton per 8–10 heavy smokers for an evening, then round up one.
Sizing the order
| Guests who smoke | Suggested cartons |
|---|---|
| 2–4 | 1 |
| 5–10 | 2 |
| 10–20 | 3–4 |
Most people over-order. Extra cartons do not go to waste if you store them sealed, but they do tie up cash.
Mixing brands
Groups rarely agree on one brand. A practical split is one full-flavour carton (Marlboro Red), one menthol (Newport Menthol) and one lighter option (Marlboro Gold) — three cartons covers most group preferences.
Keeping them fresh
Do not open all the cartons at once. Break one at a time and keep the rest sealed in a cool room. An opened carton starts drying the moment the cellophane comes off.
Delivery timing
Order so the shipment arrives at least two days before the event. Adult signature is required, so make sure someone will be there.
