[QUOTE="Brewdude, post: 415863, member: 1723"] David me owd lad - I've heard that 'baccy products are hidden from view in non-tobacconist establishments in Blighty (such as supermarkets) but this is the first I've learned that a tobacconist is prohibited from displaying their wares. Yet you were bade welcome to the "forbidden zone" by the proprietor after learning of your quest. A most puzzling development! Also have heard that tobacconists in our northern neighbouring country cannot display wares, and patrons have to choose from a generic catalogue without the possibility of inspection first. Any truth to this Canuks? Additionally, have read about possible legislation here that would prohibit the open display of wares and create a face-to-face sale chosen from a plain list devoid of advertising/logos/marquees/etc. So far it's been a non-starter. And [i][b]so far[/b][/i] is the operative phrase in this instance. :suspect: Cheers? RR [/QUOTE]
