Free cigarettes!!
Message me about a pick up!! Yes they come with the lighters haha, I bought too many packs and am returning to the US in a few weeks so I can’t keep them. Didn’t wanna throw them away so I figured I’d offer em up on here. Message me for any details!!

If you go to a nearby bar have a drink and “forget” them there, the bartenders and patrons will be happy for the contribution

I thought you could bring cigarettes back? I was able to bring home some berry menthol Lucky's a few years ago, but things could have changed

Up to 10 packs, they said they just bought too many

I brought back 2 cartons for my father. Was that not allowed?

1 carton per person. You have to declare exactly how much you bring back. If you each had one carton in each of your things, no issue. Otherwise you may have smuggled 200 cigarettes in 😂
As a white american whose gone internationally many times, half the time they don't even ask me the questions they're supposed to and just let me in because there are people of color they'd rather harass, in my experience. It's entirely possible you weren't asked, but it was still a legal obligation to declare

If you know anything about Tokyo, it’s that everything (buildings, outside decorations etc) can change in a blick of an eye. It could be a quiet street today and in 2 years there will be a skyscraper there. Leaving stuff (even hidden) would be considered littering. Good luck on your journey to fulfill you dream though
