Such methods typically assess whether non-compliant products, advertisements or price promotions are observed in stores.9 10 For example, after Boston, Massachusetts prohibited sales of flavoured tobacco in youth-accessible stores, only 14.4% of youth-accessible tobacco retailers still sold flavoured tobacco products compared with 100% among the same retailers prior to the law.9 In California, the availability of menthol cigarettes and flavoured non-cigarette tobacco products was significantly lower in jurisdictions with strong local sales restrictions than in jurisdictions without.11 12 Retail tobacco surveillance is typically concerned with reliable assessment of product visibility, meaning that two independent data collectors who visit the same stores (at the same time or on separate occasions) record the same data about what types of flavoured tobacco products were seen.12 13 Instead, the current study employed a purchase protocol to evaluate retail compliance with Californias law, acknowledging that retailers may continue to sell prohibited products even if they are not visible to customers
