I have just purchased an eCigarette.
If I cannot stop the smoking, I should at least continue my nicotine craving in a somewhat healthier manner.
Plus I can puff away on it in a pub, office etc.
Bought some flavours too, raspberry, apple and cherry.
It should arrive tomorrow, so I will give a report for those others of us that are addicted to the weed.
This was prompted by a friend who said it has not only made him a lot richer but also a lot more healthy.
Fingers crossed that this actually works, but for £30 I think it is worth the punt.

FIL used one for a year or two before he died. I couldn't, or wouldn't, completely stop but they at least meant he cut down heavily from around 60 to less than 20 a day.
-- edit --
If you want to really save then just stop. Give up. Quit. Say "no more".
Only you can decide but when you do tell everyone. Then the temptation to lapse is curbed by the fear of mockery from the ones you love and/or owe money to.

Half of our IT department smoke (4). They have all started the eCig. Now they are talking about mixing flavors, types of tips, and other related jargon.
They seem to be doing well with it, and I am told it is much cheaper.

Back of an envelope calculation (and I have allowed that I will still buy the occasional pack of 20) shows I will be over £2000 a year better off.

£2000?  That's only 4 packs of 20 after the next budget!

Cheaper? Just you wait till it gets sufficiently popular and corporates that once sold ciggies join the eCig bandwagon ...

IIRC they already are...
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

Quote from articleI've been more worried in the past that people would think these devices look like drug paraphernalia rather than something used by a terrorist
Hmmm, sure it is exactly that?

I'd say it is, but then there is "drug paraphernalia" on my desk at this moment, in the shape of a pint glass - I use it for water during the day.

Over react much? 
Common sense is admitting there is cause and effect and that you can exert some control over what you understand.

Champix[^] is a lot better and cheaper just ask your Quack for them. I was heavily addicted and had tried Patches/gum etc to no avail. They are honestly miracle pills that require no effort on your part. You remember how disgusting the smell of smoking and the thought of smoking was before you smoked? These revert you back to that in a matter of days.

Quote: In November 2007, the FDA announced it had received post-marketing reports that patients using varenicline for smoking cessation had experienced several serious side-effects, including suicidal ideation and occasional suicidal behavior, erratic behavior, and drowsiness
Thanks, but NO, THANKS ...

Yeah but that lots bollocks. You have to have suicidal tendencies in the first place. Besides they probably only wanted to kill themselves because they couldn't have a fag.

I found out that the only way for me to quit smoking was cold turkey.
Patches did not work and was a complete waste of money.
So was the other products and gadgets out there.
There is a long story behind me quitting so I'll give you the short.
When I lived in upstate New York cigarettes were somewhat cheap.
I moved to Southern Georgia in 2003, still smoking a pack aday.
I went to NY to visit some family and friends in April 2010.
I found that cigarettes were around $11.00 a pack. So I thought that
this was a God-send and started my journey and quit.
After 3 yrs. and 5 months, I still get a slight urge to light up.
It's a day to day process so just try to stay away from the
coffin nails as long as you can.
Hope your quitting is as successful as mine.
