I cut them in half and sell them for 1.5x their equal. I now have a starting point of 6 cigarettes to trade from. I get my boy Greg, who is a little slow in the mind, but large in body to take the cigarettes back. I pay him 12.5 %. 12.5% goes to my outside source of cigarettes. I pocket 25% and keep the economy going.

so, you cut the cigarettes in half and trade each half cigarette for two full cigarettes.

stay out of trouble

3am math isn't very good. It would work out to turning 2 cigarettes into 3 cigarettes. My attempt at a shrinkification market fails if I can't do math...

I'm still not sure it makes sense boss.. Do you mean you sell a half cigarette at full cigarette price? I'm still not sure why you feel someone would buy half a thing for the cost of a full thing?

Because it's not the cost of one full cigarette.

(1 / 2) x 1.5 = 0.75

0.75 x 4 = 3
