smokers thread

I have seen benson & hedges for about 32.00 a carton. Kools are like them same but they are menthols, if you like them. I thought that benson & hedges was made by phillip morris cop. In the USA, says it on the box?

 

thought so, Va slims don't they make those 120's that are even longer then 100's?

 

Used to smoke Kools. Started smoking because i was on Community custody and was getting UA'd twice a month. So no budda for me, and i needed some smoke in my lungs. Managed to kick the habit about a year and half ago. When i get really drunk, i'll start smoking like a champ again, though.

 

I love kool's, don't smoke all the time. Just when I drink, which is like two times a week. So I smoke like 7 cigs a week tops.

 

In holland a box of 20 marlboro regular cost 4 euro:
that's +/- 3.50 USd

modderfreakin' ! tax-abusers

 

Thats just about how much they cost here but after tax it is like 4.10$.

 

over here in the UK it costs about £5 for 20 cigarettes ($10?) thats the reason why i gave up - far too expensive and also smoking makes everyday excerise a lot harder too!

 

I hear lung cancer slows you down some also.

 

Smoking kills and we all need to find something better to do with our time. I just had a thought... if marijuana were legal, who would be looked down upon more by society: marijuana smokers, or cigarette smokers? I think marijuana smokers for the 1st 15-20 years, minimum.

 

I don't smoke cigarettes,but occasionally smoke a cigar whil I fish. I like my Cigars like I like my women, Black and Mild. Swisher sweets if the black and milds aren't available.

Anybody have a good website for a [bold]New Iron Lung?[/bold]

I want to get the best price for one. LOL

 

I smoke a generic brand and pay $13 a carton....

 

I actually drive across state lines(5 mile trip) to a neighbor state that has much much lower taxes on smokes. The same generics are about $6 or $7 bucks more a carton here.

 

Well I try to find the best tasting generic brand I can of full flavor 100's menthol have to drive 15 mile's to the next state to pay 13.00 to 15.00 a carton or if I got them here in Mich they would be around 45.00 ouch LOL

 

Hey RETRO 78 Yes you heard right about the company that has banded there employees from smoking even on there own time they even fired abunch of them for not takeing a test befor work to see if they where still smoking what a load of BS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! the company in here in Michigan wish I could remember the name but my minds alittle cloudy right now tehe must be from smoking LOL

 

I smoked from when I was 12 or 13 untill just before I turned 42. Camel non filters. I found a way to quit that worked quite well for me. I woke up at around 5:00 A.M. having a heart attack. They kept me in the hospital for 2 weeks without cigarettes. I haven't smoked since. This made the initial part of quitting easer. No will power required. I still wanted a cigarette for about a year, though. Although this method worked for me I don't think I could really recomend it to anyone else. That was November 23, 1982. I used to really complain if a cigarette machine wanted $.75 for a pack of cigarettes. I can't even imagine buying them at the price they are now. My son does, although I don't see how he can afford them.
