I used to buy my cigarettes at this store up until today 5/18/22. They have always had the best prices around the Little River area. I would always buy by the carton usually a carton per week. I went in to purchase a carton and I had noticed, it was getting hard to find my brand there for the past two months. I had to buy at another place in Calabash for a few dollars more per carton. I was ok with that but for the past 2 years I've lived in the area and I was a loyal customer for them. So I tried again today and noticed there was a different guy behind the counter and they had rearrange the store some. So I could see they had plenty of the brand and type I smoke. I felt good like maybe they had changed the store and decided to increase their inventory. Well long story short I asked for a carton of my brand and was ready to check out. He then told me $75.30 a carton. I WAS FLOORED, I had been buying them there for under $60. bucks. He said they went up DUH. I drove into Calabash and bought a carton for $59.30. I will never ever go back into that Tobacco & Vape store even for a pack of matches. Sorry but you lost my loyal patronage. Vape Store Out. I wish I could give them a minus star.
