Thanks folks.  

 

I am still smoke free and rarely even think about smoking.  

 

However...

 

While paying for gasoline at the local service station (the other day) I happened to glance over at my old friends behind the counter.  

The smokes were selling for $10.78 / pack.  I believe that would be 8.78 pound sterling or 10.28 in Euros.

 

HOLY CRAPOLA BATMAN!

 

My smoking habit would be costing me north of $300+/month in today's economy.  

 

There are cheaper ways of committing suicide.

 

At least back in 1987 I was only spending 70 cents for a pack at the local commissary.

 

Even if I wanted to, I don't think I could afford blowing that much on a habit.

 

We do not exist to smoke.  Live, love, laugh, cry, travel, volunteer, protest, but don't smoke.  

Smoking is pissing away your time on this planet.  Your life deserves better then that.

About us

QuitTrain®, a quit smoking support community, was created by former smokers who have a deep desire to help people quit smoking and to help keep those quits intact.  This place should be a safe haven to escape the daily grind and focus on protecting our quits.  We don't believe that there is a "one size fits all" approach when it comes to quitting smoking.  Each of us has our own unique set of circumstances which contributes to how we go about quitting and more importantly, how we keep our quits.
