Yes.
Walgreens started doing this a while ago, too, actually.
You have to be 21 years old to buy any tobacco products

I don't know that I agree but it doesn't effect me so eh.
It never stopped us in high school when it was 18. It’s one of those things that looks good on paper but is pretty much pointless. Smokers will get ahold of cigarettes, age be damned.

Kinda sucks if you wanna buy stop smoking aides and you are under 21. You could have started by now but you aren't legally allowed to buy aides since they contain nicotine. I do agree with upping the age though.

How stupid. Smoking is gross but adults should be able to make their own decisions.
So glad I live in a place where 18 is considered an actual adult.

Is this just a gut feeling in your part of do you have evidence to show that raising the smoking age has no impact on teen smoking rates? Because there’s a fair amount of good evidence demonstrating that it does. I’d be curious to see what study you are using for reference!Anonymous 2 wrote: ↑Fri Dec 27, 2019 2:00 pm It never stopped us in high school when it was 18.

These laws are so arbitrary. If you're old enough to die fighting for our country, you are old enough to drink and smoke. Either you're an adult when you're 18 or you're not.
