Do you smoke? What brand of cigerettes do you smoke? I smoke Peter Jackson King Size Menthol. I used to smoke Players Light King Size for many many years and just changed brands about a year ago. My daughter smokes menthol so she is the one who got me to change brands. Now if I smoke a non menthol brand I don't like them. I pay on average $9.00 a pack and thank goodness I only smoke about 2 to 3 packs a week. My hubby smokes Players Light Regular and his smokes cost, on average, $12.00 a pack and he smokes a pack a day. So that is a lot of money we spend on smokes. Crazy!!!!
Do you smoke and what brand and how much do you pay for them?

Wow!! Where do you live? I’ve said for years that when they go up to this amount I’ll quit, then they go up and I raise my limit and it goes on and on but I really think $12 will do it. I smoke – OK, are you ready? – Virginia Slims Luxury Ultra Light Non-Menthols and I just bought a pack yesterday that came to $5.02 including tax and I was taken aback a little, I must admit. It’s been a steady increase, a few cents every few weeks it seems and I’m really getting tired of burning my money this way. Maybe it’s time for the patch or something!

I live in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada and they are very expensive every where in Canada because they, the government, say they want to force everyone to quit so they taxed the hell out of us that buy them.

Really? Manitoba? So you must earn well, hehe. I have a friend in Montreal, and when he went to the embassy to ask for the permission to work in Canada, they offered him a fortune if he was willing to go to Manitoba, because it seems they really need people over there, much more than Montreal! (He said no, by the way...I think he still regrets it)

I smoke one pkt a day.In India, the local brand Gold Flake King size I use. It costs me Rs.38/-(approx. $1). Though I don't like it is to kill time I smoke.
