Stopping Smoking

[Slip]

Good luck. I gave up around 13 yeas ago. I said when my brand went to £5 a pack I would give up. So the day they went up I just stopped from 10 a day to zero.

Well i dont think 20,s exist now most Brands seem to have cut down to packs of 19, Im told some even do 18,s but the cost varies anything between around £7 up to Im told B&H which are around £9....

I thank you all for your encouragement, and i really think with you guys behind me i can do this... I know its a case of mind over matter, but i have got hold of some patches and a nicorette inhaler...

Oh yes, they still exist ... it's the packets of 10 that've been done away with! Indeed, 20 packs are all you can buy nowadays. Pity that ... ... as I limit myself to only one fag daily after my main meal -have been doing this for more years than I can remember - simply cutting~off the filter tip, and using a holder.

However, you're correct in saying the price range varies depending on the brand selected. Windsor Blue, for example, (my own choice) currently cost £6.79 and can last me for more than a fortnight.

Ah, you're welcome. Good Luck!

I can remember going to the corner shop and buying 2 fags for my brother's, and the shop keeper putting these onto a sweet bag, those was the days

Come off it Michael, there's no way you are seriously telling us that you feed 2 adults for less than £18 a week

For one it's ok I would have thought , but that would be in the Phil's, and as we know Michael hates living there too

In Philippines it was less than that for two of us for a week, it worked out about £15 per week and here for two of us it's about £120 per month

Stop fishing Simon

Stop fishing Simon

You said £9 is more than half your weeks food shopping, so therefore you spend less than £18 a week or £72 a month. You then said you spend £120 a month.
Not sure what I'm fishing for Michael, but if I catch it I'll send it up for you to cook and save a few pennies

You could not feed a baby on that amount unless it was breast feeding ," Ow the thought"

A friend of mine owns an off-licence and he says that by next year all cigarettes will be sold in 20's. Nothing else.

I smoke B & H Blue which cost £5.99 for 18 I think although I'm considering swapping over to vaping.

Good luck anyway with your quest to quit.
