Default What is the best generic brand in your opinion?

I was just wondering if anyone has an idea what generic brand is the best, or what most of you prefer. I have been a red man forever but just cannot afford $55 for a carton and almost $6 for a pack anymore. I have tried pall mall, didnt like the slow burn. and also have tried others. any ideas? need to switch to something cheaper until I quit which I am shooting for this year with the help of wellbutrin (hoping it works).

Thanks for any replies...

Gold Coast is my favorite Generic. Flavor isn't too bad and it gets the job done.

Default No more Marlboro Light for me

I went to the store to get a carton today and got sticker shock. I need a replacement as well - I haven't smoked anything BUT Marlboro Lights in years, so I'm clueless. I almost bought just any old thing, but I'd been here before and figured someone might have a recommendation.

This tax increase sucks.

Yes, but here called as "Cooper",of course the blend and design is the same. They are made by a small farmer's company called SEKAP, in a small town of Northern Greece called Xanthi.
They aren't much popular anymore( used to be at the 80s),but i think is a fair cigarette: tolerable,slow burning, in a low cost.

I find Richmonds are a good generic budget brand, there just generic full flavour ciggarettes. But unlike most cheap brands they don't have a terrible taste.

By "generic", I assume you mean "cheap brands"- which I'd say the best generic brand would be probably Pall Mall- those are generic and good as hell.
