    Needed to vent frustration to people who understand

    Would it be possible to print pictures of the cigarettes packs onto a sheet of paper and let him point to what he wants? Keep the sheet laminated for other customers you may not fully understand. Just a thought. Dont know if this would help, but it may be worth a try.
