Opinions - Pissed off Smoker: Cigarettes Cost So Much

[Greenport]

Move to Kentucky, they're paying an average of $2.90 a pack!

They also have the highest smoking rate in the USA and coincidentally one of the highest rates of lung cancer in the country. Check it out!

(For those wondering, New York had the most expensive cigarettes, with an average of $6.52/pk, and Utah had the lowest smoking rate)

Go to your GP and ask him to prescribe Champix, works great. Although I'm on my third round of it, it does really work.

My problem is I can stop for around 8 months and then if someone offers me a cigarette, I'll think one won't hurt, then it's turns into a couple a day, next thing I know, I'm a smoker again.

I hate smoking, it smells, turn your teeth and fingers yellow, and it messes with your breathing. Been a smoker for 15 years now, it's been one of the few things I regret in life.

Yeah, it is well over $6.00 a pack here for my sacred Marlboro Reds. Even (insert Nazi state's name here) government is taxing the life out of them.

I started ordering Ukrainian-made Marlboro Reds for $2.40 a pack with shipping ($22.40 per carton). I actually like these Ukrainian Reds better because the tobacco is stronger but it tastes so much less like the chemical-flavored American version. Easily one of the best cigarettes I have smoked hands-down (certainly better than any Camel I have ever tried).

Swim is incredibly pissed off cus his camels went up to 5.50 and he could deal with that but as off april first the federal tax is being upped and one of swims friends friends is a tobacco retailer he says that those mainbrand smokes will go up to 7.50 a pack which is way too much for swim so swim is starting to buy roll your own and is gunna stock up beofre april first cus even pipe tobacco is going up an estimated 5 to 10 bucks so everythings getting to be way too god damned expensive.
