Immediate benefit: you will find yourself hugging your daughter spontaneously without wondering is you smell like smoke. I remember that anytime a I am tempted to cheat (plus my son is 12 and would never let me live it down at this point).
Keep it up, you can do it!

Samsnate, I will be watching for further developments in your quest of building you stack. Bravo for leaving those cigarettes behind, and putting that money to good use.  |

Cool motivational idea and your wife is really cool for being flexible and open enough to pitch the compromise.

Sam - I've been watching this post. I started late in my mid-20's and ended in my early 30's. I'm 35 now and I haven't had a cigarette in 4 years now. What I do have are plenty of ASE's to show for quitting. Chantix helped me out and I only used that medicine for 30 out of 90 days required. I was a smoker for 9 years and did NOT want to be in the "double digit years" of smoking. Good luck and stay strong. |

Good luck brother. Silver is one of the better motivators out there for anything

I like the way you think. I might have to steal your idea. It would definitely motivate me to quit myself and turn my cigarettes into something positive.

Thanks for the words of encouragement coinskelly. At least this means there are 6 packs of cigarettes not in my body and saved $50 so far. I'm eyeing up a 10oz ntr bar. After shipping, it would be just under $32oz. But for each day I only get $5 to spend so if I get it, it might kill this thread, but would be nice to look at as a reminder. Cheers!
