Maybe i should clarify. They're not sold by the pubs in any way, they're sold by individuals who come into the pubs. These individuals make tobacco and alchol runs to countries like Bulgaria to buy cheap booze and ciggies, they they come back and sell them in the pubs. The owners don't mind, they get a cut or free ciggies and booze. All the other stuff, the electronics and what have you, have -- fallen off the back of a lorry
Case in point. I buy 50g tobacco pouches for £5, they cost around £12-13 officially.
