I have achieved so much financially in a year on things I would not be able to afford if I was still smoking 🚬 . Don’t miss it and my only regret is I didn’t stop sooner, but better late than never.

    Hi all, now I have wrote a bit of a story and can understand if you don’t get through it. But if helps just one person that can relate to my last 4 months that would be great. It’s not easy giving up, we’ll some find it easier than others. So hear goes.... My last packet cost me $56.00 for a pack of 50, they had gone up $2.00 from the week before. They are now $63.00 for a pack so they have gone...
