Heads up on new rule if you buy cigarettes at any Wawa in NJ or Pa.

That's the advance warning posted at select Wawa locations in New Jersey and elsewhere, for a change that set's to take effect on April 17. On that date, it'll be the policy of these locations to check identification for 100% of tobacco and vape-related purchases. That means you're supposed to get carded no matter how hold you may be/appear.
