You can do it rj. Quitting's easy - I reckon I did it over a hundred times! laugh laugh

But the last one did stick. Echoing what burkemi said, I finally wanted to want to. For me. My choice. Not just to shut the wife up for a little while...

my dad was a 2+ pack a day for over 30 years...went to group hypnosis and was supposed to follow up in individual hypnosis 2 weeks after hte group. he walked out from the group and never smoked again, didn't even need the individual session. for some people it works, for others it does not.

I just went to the store and bought my normal ration of snuff......15 cans (3 rolls). $123.45. Comes to $8.23 a can. At roughly (or at least) a can a day, that's just over $3000 a year. That comes from my disposable, after tax income. But i had the thought....if today was the last time i ever bought snuff, from a disposable income standpoint, it would seem like the equivalent of maybe a $4500 annual raise (well, for everything but my 401k). $4500 a year isn't huge, but it's not nothing. At least i'm thinking about these numbers......
