As much as you want .... as long as you don't get busted!





Seriously take a look here:

quote:
$200 Exemption

If you cannot claim other exemptions because:

* you have been out of the country more than once in a 30-day period or because
* you have not been out of the country for at least 48 hours,

You may include with the $200 exemption your choice of the following: 50 cigarettes and 10 cigars and 150 milliliters (5 fl. oz.) of alcoholic beverages or 150 milliliters (5 fl. oz.) of perfume containing alcohol.

$800 Exemption
