Today I thought about how much money I am wasting per week on packs of cigarettes. I smoke marlboro lights, about 1 pack a day. Marlboro Lights are priced at $3.60 a pack, even though this is cheap considering what other states are paying for. So I calculated each month, at one pack a day would cost me about $100 if I bought 3 cartons. Thats $1,000 a year for just cigarettes!! Thats insane. So I went to the local smoke shop and purchased a nice cigarette maker, which makes beautiful cigarettes! Purchased the rolls, and then a big bag of tobacco. It woul cost me around $12 for a carton of cigarettes(200 cigs). So three cartons per month would put me at $36, and for the year it would cost me $432. I would save almost $600 making cigarettes on my own! Thats awesome! After a long day of making my own cigarettes, I finally got to enjoy them. They are a bit different than the marlboro lights I used to smoke, but they are pretty good! Just have to get used to the new tobacco smoke. Even though smoking is terrible for you and I do want to quit smoking soon if I have the will power, this is a smart idea for anyone who wants to save quite a bit of money.
is that a pk of 25's not that I buy smokes or smoke on a regular basis but your lucky over here our cigarettes are $9 + a pkt of 20- 25's........
Thats alot of money of how much you can spend on cigarettes..I don't smoke luckily. It would be too much of an expensive habit for me. lol
Smoking is bad but it costs less than having children. Besides in England ciggies are around $10 a pack.
I guess making your own cigarettes has a lot of advantages. It's cheaper, and you know that since YOU made it, it doesn't have any chemicals or crap that corporations throw in.
I used to smoke, but luckily i have got away with it.. Thanks to Mr. Eric.. Checkout his site, http://www.quitsmokingnoww.com/ He's a renown speaker and author about smoking.. I got chance to attend his seminar once and with his techniques and will power i stopped smoking. Hope it would be of some help to you guys..
Ive just quit smoking for my health as circulation and heart were getting messed up. Still have the odd smoke when im drinking though and enjoy a cigar too.
$3.60 for a packet of cigarrettes? Where are you? Where I am from a packet of 25's cost at least $9, and that was when I used to smoke. Buying tobacco like that does make it work out a lot cheaper, you just need to get used to the new flavour.
I drink, but I don't smoke. But yeah; making your own cigarettes is cool. You put in some effort into making ciggies and finally you get to enjoy a nice, long smoking session. It gives you a sense of accomplishment.
Cigerette making machine? Bugger that, just roll them yourself. I used to smoke, rollups were the way to go cheap and it made you work a bit to have one (rolling them).
Sigh... I am also a smoker. Cigarettes in our country are very expensive (nearly SGD$12 bucks per pack) and I am thinking of quitting but find it very difficult to do so. Maybe my willpower is not good enough.
Wow! $12 to $15 a pack of cigarettes? Thats insane. I would not smoke if I lived there. I live in Missouri, USA and cigs are pretty cheap here.
