I am waiting for hubby who went to walk the dogs and buy cigarettes. I had about 12 cigarettes in 9 hours. It is still too much but it is less than before. I think it is easier to quit in summer than in the winter. The heat is healing and stops me from wanting to smoke heavily. I have done 4 days at less than 1.5 pack a day. The goal is one pack only. And even better, 8-10 smokes max a day like in hospital.After that, cutting to zero should not be so bad. In four days, we saved 50$ it looks like. I thought it was more than that but whatever. Thats 400$ a month.  5K a year, that is substantial. It is about half what I used to smoke for the last 10 years, yearly. It is way too expensive a habit and it is super bad anyway for me and everyone else in my vicinity (dogs, brian etc).
