Like the subject says i am looking for some tips to help me buy some cigarettes. I am 16 but could pass for 18. I'm just looking fo tips like what to wear and how to act and stuff like that. At the present moment, having someone who is 18 to buy for me is not an option.

CONFIDENCE

act like you have done it befor. know the name of the cigarettes that you want to buy and don't mess around, have the money ready. Also go to a small shop not a big chain. Look and act likes its a normal thing for you to do. happy to help

-stu-

do what everyone else does and stand outside a 7'11 and get somone walkin into the store to buy um for you

Thats really fun to do untill your semi-dim friend asks a security guard.

Fun times.

NEVER ask strangers to buy your stuff, nine times outa ten theyll just say no or tell the store manager and then the police show up, or they just take your cash and run. instead, listen to rockfan_24 just do it like its regular and when you buy it go to a younger cashier, older people will card you. also have a 5 dollar bill and leave your wallet in the car so if they ask for I.D. you can just act like youre looking for it and say you must have left your wallet at home. if you have a job ask someone you work with. but just know what youre doing go in and insist on yadda yadda in a box, coment on how the price is getting extragant, and you might cut back. remember what the fat guy said in the godfather, you go in dont look nobody in the eye, but you dont look away neither, make them laugh but dont be a funny guy. and be confident. if your shaking and fumbling youre words then your nervous for a reason and then you wont get them.

Go to a small family run store (Stores run by old asian people are supposed to be the best bet). Dont try 7-11, It wont work (unless i have been told wrong).

Why do you want to start smoking anyway? Im not trying to be judgemental or anything, or even try to steer you away from it, im just wondering.

Go in to the store (small one), go up to the register and say "Hey, I need a pack of <insert ciggie brand here>", they pop it on the counter, you pull out your wallet with the money, if they ask for I.D. say something like "Crud! Where is it! I must of left it at home! Let me go get it" (while "searching" your wallet), then find a new store. If they comply, hey, smoke up boy.

My sister walked up to a convenience store and just asked for them with total confidence. She got 'em. Just act like you always do it, and if they say "No", then fumble around in your back pockets and say, "Shit, forgot my wallet". Risk free.

You know...I must agree with the idea of buying from some old asian guy. This is in no way a racial thing, but if you think about it, in china it is considered perfectly normal for a 13 year old to be puffing a cigarette. If you are asking some immigrant from china or similar, you are sure to not be questioned.
