Buy gum instead, and chew. Seriously. I won't say I quit smoking completely, because I have a cigar on holidays or during celebration, but I haven't bought a pack of cigarettes in years. When my mother was diagnosed with cancer, It really made me think, so I went cold turkey and I chewed dentyne ice peppermint gum whenever I wanted a cigarette. Eventually the store bought cigarettes really became gross to me, and the only tobacco I have now is cured tobacco from a smoke shop, sheisha, or a good cigar. Other then that, my daily routine absolutely rarely includes smoking. You don't need a cigarette when you drive. You don't need a cigarette when you drink. You don't need a cigarette to walk to the car. You don't need a cigarette.
