1) I started in the summer hols, for the first time.
2) Menthols, some were just rolled (can't remember what brand!)
3) N/A
4) GIVEN UP
5) It didn't cost me anything, I was one of the annoying people who got given them, rather than buy my own. To me it was a huge advantage, means I didn't spend any money and I didn't get addicted!

Since someone has posted this thread (won't answer the q's as they don't apply to me) is there anyone who intends to quit this year (resolution if you like)?

Thought we could get a support thread going for all the quitters if there are enough of you.

1) How long have you been smoking?
I've been smoking for two years "full-time". However, I tried my first cigarette five years ago and started socially smoking around three years ago.

2) What do you smoke (brand of cigarette/cigar/tobacco)
I usually buy 10 decks of superkings on a day-to-day basis. I look for the £3 - £4 price range so I end up getting JPS, Sovereign or Richmond. However, my favourites would be L&B, Camels or a similar brand... on a night out, I'll buy a 20 deck for around £9.

3) How many/much do you smoke per day?
Minimum would be 8, maximum would be 30. It depends what my day consists of: if I sit round my house all day and I'm unwell, I'll be having no more than 8. If I have a full day in college followed by going to town all night, I will go well over 20.

4) Do you intend to give up smoking?
Not at the moment as I am in fine health and enjoy smoking. It is also hard for me to go without cigarettes, so it would bring me so much unnecessary stress that I can't be dealing with at this time.

5) How much do you spend on your smoking per week?
£20 - £30
