Tobacco Products Regulated and Taxed

(a)No business engaged in the manufacture, production, distribution, or importation of tobacco products, or any employee or agent of the same, shall sell such products to retailers or consumers through any multi-pack discounts (e.g., “Buy two, get one free”).

(b)No business engaged in the manufacture, production, distribution, or importation of tobacco products, or any employee or agent of the same, shall sell, or otherwise provide or distribute to retailers or consumers, any tobacco products without charge or for less than the listed or non-discounted price, in exchange for the purchase of any other tobacco product.

(c)For the purposes of this Section, listed or non-discounted price shall mean the higher of the prices listed for a tobacco product on its package, or the price listed on any related shelving, posting, advertising, or display at the place where the tobacco product is sold or offered for sale plus all applicable taxes if such taxes are not included in the stated price, and before the application of any discounts.

(d)Nothing in this Act shall be construed as a prohibition on individual sales of tobacco products at a discounted rate; provided, however, that it is not attached to a sale of another tobacco product at a reduced price, or even as a give-away.
