Default Reason to quit

I took this in New York when getting the wife cigs.

When I quit they were .75 cents a pack.

That's $7.00 a PACK!?!?!?!?!? Someone would have to be really desperate for some nicotine to pay that much! Remember when they were $2.50 a carton in the commissary?

Default Re: Reason to quit

$7.00 a pack and politicians are screaming about the poor economy.


Probably my warped way of looking at things. The country has people in it that will pay $7.00 a pack for gigs. & another $5.00 for a Starbucks cup of coffee. Then they sit and whine about how bad off they are. My sense of value can't adjust to that.

As for not smoking neither my wife or I smoke. 3 sons that don't smoke and 3 daughters-in-law that don't smoke. Hopefully our 5 grandsons will look at this as a family thing and figure their health is as important.
