Cigarette card locations have become a must-know for the most dedicated collectors in Red Dead Redemption 2. For those who have made it their New Year’s Resolution to gather all 144 collectible cards, there are a couple of ways to collect each of the 12 complete sets.
Early in the game, players will meet a man who will trade full sets of cigarette cards for money. For the first set of cards traded, players will receive the Vintage Civil War Handcuffs, which are required to make the Alligator Tooth Talisman. After completing all sets, players can trade them in for $200 in-game alongside unique completion rewards depending on the set.
I just made Arthur Morgan buy $2,000 worth of cigarettes so that he could collect all the cigarette cards, which I think is the old west’s equivalent of buying a shit-ton of beanie babies #RDR2

Where to Find Cigarette Cards in RDR2
Each of the individual cigarette cards can be randomly found in Premium Cigarette Packs, which are available for purchase at General Stores in towns. Players can also explore the world to find discarded individual cards scattered throughout the wilderness.
