    Just a rant......

    Yep, snus helped quit smoking :^)

    and definitely healthier than cigarettes :^)

    I haven't seen a thread where ex-smokers post their overall spendings on cigarettes. It's pretty interesting and hope this thread will influence and inspire many smokers to quit this filthy habit and actually taking a look at the financial issues with smoking apart from the "HEALTH"

    I'll go first

    Cigarettes 16 years x 356 days X 1 pack day x $5 = $29.200
    Cigars - Used to buy them in bulk but haven't spent more than $250/year x 16 years = $4.000
    Lighters/Zippos and Matches - $100/year - $1600 (I still have the lighters, lol, a collection of over 500 lighters)
    Hookah - Gave up smoking hookah right after I bought it - $300
    Pipe and Pipe Tobacco - $500 (gave up smoking piper right after I bought one)
    Rolling tobacco - Spent quite a bit on rolling tobacco too - Roughly $500
    NRT - Used NRT a couple of times to quit - $1000
    Room Vaporizers and Aromatic Oil - $100/year - $1600

    Grand Total - $40.600

    I'm almost 27 (if I would be a smoker till i reach the age of 70 I would spend almost $150,000.) lool No WAYYYYYY - That's the cost of 3 apartments or a luxurious ferrari, lol

    I would rather drive a ferrari at the age of 70 and be smoke-free.

    Sorry for the rant but this "nice chick" last night offered me a cigarette and I was about to produce "THE DISASTER" looooool

      this is the rant! I couldn't sleep all night until I cut the cigarette into pieces and threw it out of the window LooooooL

      I was quite attracted to the idea of the new KENT filters where you pop the filter with a menthol ball inside and I was that close to smoke it as well ............

      Will never take another stupid cigarette from anyone Wouldn't mind a can of SNUS though :^)

        you would have been better off the smoking the gal and popping her........
        Grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to hide the bodies of the people I killed because they were annoying......





        I've been wrong lots of times.  Lots of times I've thought I was wrong only to find out that I was right in the beginning.

                Always try to hit on the 'nice chick's that smoke, I saw an episode of MANswers that said women that smoke are somewhere in the neighborhood of 70% more likely to give it up

                  Lois Griffin said it best..."If she smokes, she pokes." So far on the smoker to non-smoker scale I gotta say she is correct and that MANswers is right about in the ball park with that figure. I'd say 85% do.

                  /dates a smoker
                  //never failed, she smokes...she pokes.
                  ///slashies for everyone

                      I'd say rather if she drinks she pokes !!!

                      It's funny that there's not many chicks these days smoking anymore.... maybe 20% of the whole lot.........does that mean 80% are virgins? =))

                      I always thought so loooooooooooooooooool

                      Hahahah

                            Roda, Grov, Landstroms, Gellivare, Gotlands Anis. All los of course. I also have a single partial tin of Claq if you are interested, i'm not a fan.

                            Pick your poison and PM me your info precious.

                            Edit: If precious doesn't want the can of claq, anyone else want it? I won't use it. It is only a partial can, can't remember how many i used not too many though. Stored in the freezer so there should be no issues with it.
