Camel cigarettes are one of the oldest and most popular brands of cigarettes that you can buy. The Camel cigarette company that established the brand was R.J. Reynolds Tobacco, and the Camel cigarette brand was created in 1913. The idea behind Camel cigarettes was that they would be a milder easier taste than the other brands of cigarettes that were available at the time.

Camel cigarette packs are somewhat famous among cigarette advertisements because of the slight controversy surrounding some versions of the Camel cigarette picture; the line work on the image of the camel was said to include the subliminal image of an erect man smoking a cigarette. The Camel cigarette picture has been changed numerous times over the years however, with different line designs and sometimes simply as the solid color outline image of a camel. The picture on the pack of Camel cigarettes is actually inspired by the real life "Joe Camel" that was taken from town to town during the early twentieth century as part of the promotion for Camel cigarettes. Later, an animated character named Joe Camel would be created and Joe Camel cigarettes would be decried during the late eighties and early nineties when this character, who many said was overly phallic, was adopted as the main mascot of the Camel cigarettes brand. Complaints were lodged that the character was being used to market Camel cigarettes to children, and after a decade the ad campaign for Camel cigarettes using Joe Camel stopped, although he remains one of the most instantly recognizable characters in American pop culture.

Camel cigarettes coupons are one of the new online promotions that Camel cigarettes has adopted in response to the pressure to adapt to advertising on the internet: In some cases Camel cigarette coupons can be found on the internet and printed (such as Camel cigarettes $5 off coupons) to be used in stores to get a lower price on Camel cigarettes for a limited time. At the Camel cigarettes home page, you can see that the current Camel cigarettes catalog includes Camel no. 9 cigarettes (Camel no.9 cigarettes), Mandarin Mint Camel cigarettes, various new Camel cigarettes and other types of Camel cigarettes. While prices for all kinds of cigarettes have gone up across the board over the past few decades with rising taxes on cigarettes to offset the health cost that is calculated by states and increased base prices as a result of the large cash settlements that the tobacco companies have been forced to pay the victims of tobacco related health problems, there are still ways to find Camel cigarettes at a reasonable price.
