How much is a pack of 20 ciggies?
About 14 quid.
You could buy a couple of CDs for that, and the pleasure given would continue long after you had finished the 20th fag.
That's one way to look at it. Another is that a twenty-a-day smoker could save enough for a £5k upgrade to his kit each year. Get some nice speakers for £5k. I get my ciggies at half price and burn through about 12 a day, but it's still a lot of money.Quote:

You are quite correct, another thing is that the hassle of rolling them (though it does quickly become second nature) makes you smoke less than with ready-mades. Good luck with your continued abstinence Lawrence :)
Not going to quit but will cut down by 50 percent.Quote:
