CONCORD, N.H. - New Hampshire’s cigarette tax rose 25 cents to $1.33 a pack at midnight.
Legislators voted in the spring to make the increase automatic on Oct. 1 - today - unless the tax brought in $50 million during the quarter. The quarter ends at midnight, and state revenue official Peter Boisvert said the tally yesterday afternoon was $47.6 million.
