Słubice is a little town at the German/Polish border. It's not easy to hitch out of this town as the motorway is some kilometers south of the city and only reachable after a long walk. An option might be to thumb on the local road and try to find somebody that can take you to the A2.

Hitchhiking out

East toward Poznan, Warsaw E 30 2, southeast toward Wrocław 29

Walk along the dike until the end of town. This road, national road 29, is the only route leaving the town to the south and goes straight to Wrocław. Several kilometers outside the city, there is an intersection with the E30/N2 which go east to Poznan and Warsaw.

West towards Germany

Instead of hitchhiking from Słubice, you can walk over the bridge to Frankfurt (Oder) and take a bus or tram to the German motorway.

It is also possible to go to the parking place of the cigarette shop in ulica Kościuszki. You find it close to the roundabout opposite the Collegium Polonicum behind the shopping centre. A lot of Germans from Berlin and other places come here to buy cigarettes. You can ask them to get a lift, look out for their licences plates and if you approach them before they enter the shop you can point out that with one more person in their car they are allowed to legally import one(?) extra carton of cigarettes.
