Actually it does work with tobacco and alcohol. Or at least it does with alcohol. Alcohol costs less in real terms now than it did 50 years ago and there's a neat correlation between alcohol consumption rising and its price falling.
BBC news had an item on the alcohol issue the other week - with regard to alcohol tax proposals by the Scottish government - and displayed a graph. Unfortunately this was the TV news, so I don't know if I can find a linkable version.

Right, get your coat, start running and don't look back. Because I'm putting a bounty on your head.
