WOW.. I couldnt imagine buying a pack of Cigarettes for that much. I remember being in the Marines and we were out in the field. I brought a carton of smokes with me and had other guys buying them for $5.00 a pack. At that time it was INSANE to pay that much for a pack. Granted, that was back in the early 90's HEHE

I remember People saying they were going to quit when smokes hit 75 cents a pack. They also said that when they hit $1.

All these years later????????????????

I am kinda like that guy on the TV ad. "I have given up giving up."
I have quit many times but always come back.

Good for all you that have quit. You are stronger than I.

Not to go astray........however...........my dad died of lung cancer when he was almost 80.
He was a non-smoker

My mom is still smoking at 77.

Go figure?????????

I'm not trying to make a point, just something that has bothered me.

Not to piss you off or anything hutch but what bothers you the most living to around 80 or so. Or is it all the cash you will be out for smokes ???

I quit soon to be two years ago February. 2nd. It was really hard to do but I made it. Now if Im out some where and smell smoke on peoples clothes it about makes me barf, I think to myself I probably smelled like that at one time to....yeck!!! I feel so much better these days smoke free, I can breath, and that extra money in my pocket is paying for my kitchen remodle. So yes congrats to yous, us that have quit you can and will suceed just hang in there. Good Luck

Sgt.- are you still smoke free after two years? The anniversary date is nine days out. If so- CONGRATULATIONS!!!! If not, sorry about bringing it up.

Cre8tive- I bet you are proud of yourself. It must have been really hard, but as you have stated, the rewards are there. Yay.

My fiance quit smoking a couple of months ago. Quite the hurdle for him. He was so bitchy, I almost asked him to start smoking again. He has done very well. I don't think I could do it if I smoked.
