Q: Is there a law that states that shops should sell cigarettes at a fixed price? Can shops sell cigarettes at any price they decide?

A: Traders operate in a free market economy and hence there is no law that obliges sellers to sell products, including cigarettes, at a specific price or with a specific profit margin.

What sellers are legally obliged to do is to clearly display the prices of the products they sell, so consumers can make an informed buying decision.
