We will be traveling to roatan, Cozumel, belize, and costa maya. A friend always asks us to bring back Marlboro cigarettes when we travel since they are so expensive here. Can anyone tell me where the best place to buy them will be and how they compare to the Marlboros in the USA? If you know the carton prices in these ports, then please advise.

 

Thank you for your help.

That is correct. My advice is to go on the 1st or 2nd day, otherwise you may not find what you want. We bought a packaged deal of 5 cartons of Marlboro for my son for $128.00 on the Pride in April. They had a deal going on - if you bought the 5 carton box, you got 2 FREE bottles of Bacardi rum! We don't drink but I can't pass up free, so we bought 5 more cartons and got 2 more free bottles!! Another man was doing the same and said he didn't drink either. lol.Downside of the deal - we had to pay $80.00 for the 8 cartons over the allowable of 1 each when we went through customs, I didn't mind paying extra but it had to be cash or check, lucky we still had some $$$$$ left from our cruise. Still only paid about 1/2 of what they would cost in Delaware.

I bought the 5 cartons on the ship for $126. They also had like 2 for $69 if you didn't want to buy 5. But, the best deal was Cozumel where 1 carton was $27 and it got cheaper the more you bought. They were in that stores right at the port.

 

Didn't declare any so we paid no additional duty.
