rod03801: Okay, good, so the first thing I might try will be the patches, because I shouldn't have a problem finding them in local stores. But if it's only half the cost of tobacco, then it sounds like the price will be about the same as using an electronic cigarette. I was a two pack a day smoker, but I think today it's the equivalent of one pack per day. I roll my own, so it's hard to compared that to packs of smokes. I don't inhale added chemicals, but I think the tobacco itself is a bit stronger than most packaged cigarettes... I'm thinking out loud now, so I should probably stop talking about this...
