Multiple unit cigarette package

A cigarette package comprising:

• a transparent outer wrapper made of transparent tearable sheet cellophane sealed on a top portion, a bottom portion and a side portion and including:
• a tear strip near the top portion of the package to enable the user to quickly and precisely tear away the top sealed portion of the cellophane thereby exposing the contents of the outer wrapper without destroying the integrity of the remaining portion of the outer wrapper;
• three individual packets formed as independent stand-along independent packages in said outer wrapper,
• each packet comprising a foil backed paper sealing seven cigarettes arranged side-by-side in a straight line so that each packet has a relatively flat rectangular shape,
• a tear strip in the top portion of each individual packet, whereby the user may selectively remove the top of each individual packet by tearing away the corresponding foil backed paper;
• a front face and a back face on parallel opposite sides of each packet and forming large surface areas corresponding to conventional display surfaces on a conventional 20 pack cigarette package and adapted to carry advertising trademarks and logos by means of which the manufacturer provides advertising messages;
• side surfaces on opposite parallel sides of each packet of sufficient width to accommodate the thickness of a row of cigarettes and forming display surfaces to carry warnings, bar codes and other information;
• and
• at least one advertising coupon card between the packets to provide a two-sided indicia-bearing front and rear faces of a size commensurate with said front and back faces to enable the manufacturer to provide selective advertising and promotional messages, whereby there is provided a cigarette package having three separate packets unitarily packed in a clear cellophane wrapper and wherein each packet is individually labeled as a stand-alone unit to afford optional utilitarian usage of the packets.
