So i've been eating Fruitella recently, and they each come in their own individual wrappers. I've noticed i have a habit of doing this with them:

I find rolling them and keeping them in my mouth like that comforting.
I guess some of the instincts stick around, huh?

I hear the price of a pack went up for the 5th time in 7 years in AUS and is ungodly expensive. That really would actually make me quit to be honest.

Same in Denmark. Most tobacco got bumped up 20% in price lately. It's still not as expensive as in the UK but it's still quite expensive.

How much is a pack in Denmark?

Is it like Norway? I know Norway cigarettes are similar in price to the UK (which is actually cheap for Norwegian standards I think, lol).

Hell, when I first started, they were still a buck and change. I did basically the same thing he did, but only started rolling my own when they hit 5 bucks a pack.

Some years ago I'd have said "Holy smokes! I'm moving to the US!".

Most of my family both on my mother's and father's side were smokers, I never could get past that hacking and coughing just going through the trying. I know my uncle(mom's brother) when he was in the Navy bought I thought 100 or 200 cartons since they were tax free and after those were gone he just quit because of the tax cost.

I'm on day 153 now and can't believe how much money I've saved

I started smoking at 16 and was at 2 packs a day when I quit 2 years ago. I quit with nicotine lozenges. In the past 4 months I've started smoking again. Im only at 2 or 3 a day and still have my lozenges threwout the day. I feel i will never truly quit.

Well done @Sunspots , keep up the good work/savings

That's impressive that you quit for a while on 2 packs a day. How long has you quit for?

Curious about the app that you are using...would you mind sharing details?

It's called Quit Tracker. You put in the date/time you quit, how many you smoke, how much they cost and how long you've been smoking for. It continually updates. I've found it really good for motivation
