TLDR : Answer Summary
Yes, Golden Virginia hand rolling tobacco is available in Thailand, specifically in major cities like Bangkok and Pattaya. Travelers can purchase it at airports, duty-free shops, and some local tobacco shops. While prices may vary and availability can fluctuate, it is suggested that friends bring it from duty-free zones if possible to avoid high costs.

Geez !!!!

Sounds like so much trouble and stress. Why don’t you guys just quit?

I quit in 2000, and I’m in better shape now at 62 than I was back then. And I don’t have to deal with all that expense and bullshit.

@Patrick *****
because their not ready or motivated enough to quit yet.

I quit in 1986 as I was ready and motivated howrver made a promise to myself I would not preach to others.

thank you it’s hard to give up I’m trying hard but finding it very difficult to stop
Patrick ******
@Robin ******
It is very difficult, and I tried many times before I finally kicked it.

But the other guy,
@Dave *********
, was right… you have to be ready and motivated. I was 39 years old and was having difficulty climbing a flight of stairs. But I smoked a lot.

It’s one of the hardest things you’ll do, but the reward is 1,000 times worth it. It’s the best possible thing you can do for your health.

You’ll get there… just recognize when you’re ready, and seize the opportunity 🙏

@Dave *********
I made that promise too, and I usually adhere to it. But sometimes I can’t help myself. Here, I was trying to not sound preachy, but to appeal to their sense of practicality.

It sounded like they were all going through a major freaking hassle to feed the addiction while traveling internationally, so I just felt compelled to jump in to say, “Hey guys, wouldn’t this be a great time…”.

I knew I would come off as an arrogant A-hole. But what the hell… gotta take risks sometimes.

@Dave *********
I think it was LBJ who, after quitting, was asked by a reporter if he thought he would ever smoke again.

His reply?

“I can’t say, but I know one thing… I’ll never quit again ”.

I can relate to that… it’s one of the hardest things I’ve ever done, and it took me many tries.

Oh really 54£ for 10 pouches 500g but in uk 35.30 per 50g (353£) weighing up my options it would be simple buy and risk or buy 10 and give away 5 meaning it cost 10.80 per 50g saving you 24.50 per pouch on uk price
John ********
@Andrew *********

Andrew **********
