My wife and i are doing this together and we did the math,it's $460.00 a month for the two of us at $5.50 a pack here in jersey and it's not so much the money as the fact that dawned on us, they are charging us for the pleasure of killing ourselves,fuck the cig co.'s and that is a new postban every two months with bells and whistles [:D]
And thanks for the support guys,it really is like an extended family here.

If you have made it this far the only addiction left is psychological. The nicotine is out of your system. You will only go back if you choose to. The "dog and pony show" thing of getting out the pack. tapping one out, lighting the match, lighting up, and that first drag is a powerful lure. Gets easier every day. Finally goes away completely.
Save the cigarette money in a fund and buy guns, lots of them, to really piss off McGreedy.
Stay the course and good luck!

Not to mention all the money you will save on future medical bills.  You know, when they have to reinstall your lungs after you hack them out.  Congrats and good luck![beer]

Congratulations!  One more pack and I'm on my way to try also.  I have tried a couple of times before and failed, I'm really hoping to hang in there this time.  Good luck in your continuing efforts.
