Just back this morning and ciggies are up. €31 for Lamberts, though a few places still have them for €28.50. Makro now €29.44. Golden Virginia - up a whopping €10 to €55 (€49 in Makro) for 10x50g packs.

Where's Makro and do you need your card from here?

There are several Makro's throughout the Algarve Glynis. The one I visited was just outside Albufeira at Gaia. It's easy to find, straight opposite the Algarve Shopping Centre. There is another close to Faro airport. You can visit with a UK card with no problems - you need to pay in cash though. There are still Lamberts around at €28.50 at the moment with free bottles of spirits for say 8 cartons, but would imagine this price will only last a week or so.

does anyone know if it's just the ciggies that have gone up or have cigar prices risen too? We usually bring some back for the father-in-law.
Due to go out a week today!!!!
Thanks,

We shopped around, majority of places were €31.00 for Lambert and Butler but we found a shop in the squaer in the Old Town which still had loads for sale at €28.50 so we bought 30 boxes saving €75.00.

Is there equavalents in portugal? If so, prices and names would be apprecitaed, thanks :D

Hi Darrel. Im afraid Portugal aint duty free port like the Canaries. You will pay 31 euros 50 cents for 200 Lamberts but maybe just a bit less for the cheaper brands. Cheers Jayjan
