Marlboros are a little bit over $5. Cheapos are probably $3-$4. I havent smoked in a year. I am saving almost $1800 a year by quiting my pack a day habit.


A few pics of what smoking does...........

Congrats to you, DaveG99. Not only are you saving a bunch of money, but you will live a much healthier life. I can't believe the cost for only a pack a day. I'm so glad I never have or never will smoke.

You can get Marlboros or Camels for under 4 bucks a pack at most pharmacies. At gas stations, they cost about 5 or 6.
