Tobacco Shop Purchase

I have a tobacco compliance shop coming up at the blue gas station and am required to make a tobacco (includes cigarettes of all kinds, cigars, loose tobacco, chewing tobacco and snuff) purchase. Only up to $5 will be reimbursed and I am looking to try to stay under or go over the reimbursement amount only a little bit. Not a smoker so I'm not too familiar with common brands/products sold at gas stations and what typically is the cheapest tobacco product available. I'm in California where tobacco products are taxed pretty heavily (pack of cigarettes is around $8-9 in my area). Anyone have any suggestions for tobacco products/brands that tend to be cheaper?

More About Tobacco Compliance Audits

For our tobacco compliance shops, our shoppers usually buy a loose cigarillo. In Michigan, you can get one for 99 cents.

Cheap cigars like Swisher Sweet or Keep Movin'. Usually about $1 each.

If you have friends that smoke, you could probably resell them at a discount.
American Spirit is an easy flip.

Cigars and cigarellos are taxed much lower

Thanks everyone! I bought Swisher Sweets and Black & Mild singles for about $3.

You can hand them out when people bug you on the street in the City.
