We had just reduced the price of Kent and Neo just two months ago,Lucky Strike, which was not reduced in August 2023, has also been reduced.

What surprises me is the price,The price is 400 yen for a pack of 20.And, it is the cheapest by far, including the competition!

The price of Kent cigarettes, which are exclusive to Glow Pro cigarettes, is being raised, and the squeeze on slim-size Pro users is gradually intensifying.

By the way, we are not talking about the kind of cheapening of the price by reducing the number of bottles.

It means that the price has gone down by $50, even though it still comes in packs of 20 as before! Glow bold but wonderful!

Smokers' Reaction to Lucky Strike's Significant Price Reduction

Lakisto 400 yen is hot since October. I'm glad because I like and buy Kent True Rich Clear (450 yen) for regular, and also Lakisto Dark Yellow Menthol for mentho. 6 or 7 years ago the last paper roll (Kent Fine Mentho) was 440 yen as I recall, so it's finally going down.

Glow's Lucky Strike is going to be $400 in October...shocking. Maybe I should quit hand-rolling.

グローハイパー用のラッキーストライクが10月1日から旧価格450円⇒400円に値下げ‼️

400 yen is too much of a quandary for WW.

It seems unlikely that any tobacco company will be able to compete with this amount of money, so the cheapest heated cigarette will be the Lucky Strike for glow-hypers.

The price is still 400 yen.net (hair, netball, etc.)first volume (e.g. book)evenThere were many surprises!

It's such an impact that I'm thinking of switching............................

lactoseis my favorite brand of glow and I am contemplating switching too.

Glow's Lucky Strike is a gutsy cigarette that resembles a paper cigarette.

When I search for Lucky Strike, I see "bad" in the auxiliary terms,My impression after actually smoking it is "delicious".

Overall, it has a strong tobacco taste and smell, and you can enjoy a very tobacco-like flavor!The lineup has a strong smoking experience, so it is recommended for those who are transitioning from paper cigarettes!

Please refer to the article linked below for a review of all flavors if you are interested in the taste.

Review of [glow] Lucky Strike! Is it true that it's bad? My impressions of all 8 flavors actually smoked!

Comparison of cigarette costs between Glow, Icos, and Plume X

I think I have conveyed enough that Glo's Lucky Strike is very inexpensive,We compared the "cigarette cost" with the cost of continuing to use a competitor.

device	cigarette price	Annual Cigarette Expenses
glow hyper glo hyper air glo hyper X2 glo hyper +	KENT 450 yen neo 旧価格500円 KOOL X neo 旧価格500円 LUCKYSTRIKE 400 yen	164,250 yen 182,旧価格500円 182,旧価格500円 146,000 yen

Ploom Ploom X	MEVIUS 旧価格旧価格500円 CAMEL 旧価格旧価格500円	182,旧価格旧価格500円 182,旧価格旧価格500円

The Lucky Strike is the most affordable, costing in the 140,000 yen range per year.

Compared to the highest priced Icos Ilma, the difference is about 70,000 yen per year... I am not much of a cheater, but a 70,000 yen difference is indeed heartening.

Since BAT wants to consolidate to Glow Hyper, it may be time for a price increase but not a price cut, so this may be a good time to switch.

Reason for price reduction of "Lucky Strike" cigarettes exclusively for Glow.

As I mentioned briefly at the beginning of this article, here in Japan, cigarette taxes rose every year for five years from 2018 to 2022, and the margins of all companies were being cut rapidly.

Despite this, why did you decide to reduce the price so boldly?

Also, how can they do it so cheaply? I have tried to guess in my own way, so please bear with me if you are interested.

Reason for the large price reduction for Lucky Strike.

BAT, which sells Glow, is a company that specializes in low-priced products by leveraging its capital strength.Therefore, in the past, Glow units have been sold for 480 yen, a price that is unthinkable.

However, as a result of making the units cheaper, not only did this increase the number of defects and failures, but also rival companies began to sell the units at lower prices,It has become commonplace for devices to be inexpensive.

Glow Hyper Air1,980 yen
Plume X1,980 yen
Icos Ilma One3,980 yen

So the white feather was a special cigarette (refill).

By making a price difference, we will induce people to switch from GlowPro and also gain market share! I believe such a thought is packed into the price of 400 yen.

Why Lucky Strike can be significantly reduced in price.

The profit margin is infinitely reduced, but that is the reason why we can still refuse to pay the astonishing price of 400 yen.The shift to online sales may have had something to do with it.

As you know,All Glow Stores ceased operations in May of this year, and now you can only buy them online and at convenience stores.

All Glow Stores to close! Up to 41 dealerships nationwide have been eliminated and shifted to online channels.

However, the closing of all stores has significantly reduced tenant and labor costs, which may have absorbed or mitigated the price reductions.

The Glow Store is closing! When I heard that, I thought, "Why?" I was surprised to hear that it is a worldwide company....

Summary of price reductions for "Lucky Strike" glow-only cigarettes

Price Drop BrandsLucky Strike
flavor8 flavors in total
Date of price revisionFrom October 1

The device is also reasonably priced at 1,980 yen, so why not try the Glow Hyper series before the price drops in October?

The recommended brand is of course Lucky Strike! You can still buy it for 450 yen, which is a good deal compared to other companies!

With the price of everything being raised these days, why not start working on your wallet with cigarettes that are close to you?
