I quit smoking 9 years ago, because it was getting too expensive. Which definitely made it harder for me to quit, because I didn’t stop because I wanted to. Back then prices for the brand I bought were “only” at 4.69 euro / 5.48 usd, but I knew it was only going to get worse from there. Now they’re at 8.04 eur / 9.40 usd, and I’m so happy I quit, but even more so because of my health, which I didn’t care about back then.
EDIT: Just checked, and it was actually 9 years ago, not 8.
OK congrats to you! And yeah, can imagine that being extra hard, “just” for the money. But despite you doing it, I’d still bet my left nut on you being a rare exception. People won’t even stop to not die, what difference would money make.
But glad you did. I did like 20yrs ago (it’s cool if you don’t even remember anymore). And it was weeks of hell…
Allow me to introduce myself ;)

Congrats on quitting, you’re a heck of a success story!
Sheesh that’s expensive. Fentanyl nowadays is cheaper than smoking, shit is dangerously cheap in some parts of the US
