There's good news from Smoke-King HQ! Our teams have been working behind the scenes to review our delivery pricing ahead of the Autumn Budget 2024.
The Autumn Budget 2024
This is the first budget under the newly elected Labour Government, and we're expecting increases across tobacco duties and vapes as the Government attempts to reduce the number of smokers. We'll keep you updated with the details.
Reducing our Delivery Costs
We know smokers tend to feel the pinch during the budget, so we're reducing and price locking our delivery costs until January 2025!
What that means for Cigarette, Cigar, and Tobacco smokers
You will now save typically 30p-80p on each order you place with us effectively immediately. Here's our breakdown:
| Delivery Service | Old Price | New Price | Saving |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1st Class Tracked Parcel | £4.25 | £3.95 | 30p |
| 2nd Class Tracked Parcel | £3.75 | £2.95 | 80p |
What is 1st and 2nd Class Tracked?
1st Class Tracked by Royal Mail offers complete confidence your item is on the way and is fully tracked. Estimated delivery 1-2 days, with 98% of orders arrive next day across UK mainland. This service delivers 7 days a week.
2nd Class Tracked is a fully tracked economy service, delivering 3-5 days. Handy if you're in no rush for your smokes.
How can I take advantage of the new prices?
Our tobacco smokers can take advantage of this new pricing immediately, we've already put our pricing live.
Does this affect pricing for APC and Special Delivery?
No. Our APC and Royal Mail Special Delivery pricing remains the same.
What happens in January 2025?
We'll review our pricing again and will let you know whether it's changing. We will always keep you updated by email if our pricing changes.
