There are tons of Atabic stores there. That is where I go. Naperville, I used to like there on Pembroke Road, Naperville rd was a hop skip and a jump away. When I lived there, that area was just starting to get new sub divisions. I went back about 6 years later, and I was like, Holy French Toast, what a change. I cant imagine what it is like there now. In the 80's it was the fastest growing Suburb of Chicago. Guess Hookah is pretty cool. He has a lot of different pipes. That is where I got my Egyptian.

Heh...I also think if an establishment who has at least 25% of their sales as tobacco... then they are exempt.

ASUSEAN1 Posted January 12, 2008 Share Posted January 12, 2008 after january first, it is 80 percent of sales need to be from tobacco.. thts why dhuwan only serves prepacked food now, and basically the bear minimum Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bubbascigars Posted January 12, 2008 Share Posted January 12, 2008 does anyone know what part of chicago the middle eastern and little india wholesale stores are at. I hear they sell hookahs cheap and tobacco cheap. I am wanting to zip up and see what they are offering. Maybe a closer way for me to save on shipping charges on the larger hookahs and some of the tobaccos. ThanksBubba Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snoopy1966 Posted January 12, 2008 Share Posted January 12, 2008 Devon is Huge and so is the Arabic section of Kedzie. If you just park the car and start walking, and go into every Arabic store, don't leave out the food stores, good eats and also sometimes they have good stuff especially in the Arabic section. I do not know any names off hand. I just know where to go. Bring me with and I will show you the ropes Seriously just get out and walk, you will not be disappointed, except for the fact you will have so much stuff to carry to the car Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
