Another alterernative to consider to lower your cigarette smoking costs is to consider other brands of discount cigarettes. A Colombian made brand, GT One. There is both a full flavored and light 100’s version of this low cost discount cigarette available through Aadiscount Cigarettes.
Check it out. You may be happy you did.
There is little doubt that is is becoming ever more costly to be a smoker. With city and state taxes increasing, the tobacco companies continuing to increase their prices (RJR recently had a $2.00 per carton across the board increase in their premium brands) and more, smoking can now be considered a major monthly budget item for many people, right up there with rent/mortgage, utilities and car payments.
Is there and end in sight? Hardly. Will prices ever go down? Not likely! What are my alternatives besides quitting? Find less expensive brands or alternative vendors for your purchases.
For instance. Many generic brands flavors are every bit as good as the premium brands but are less costly because there is no advertising or promotion associated with them. Regional discount brand cigarettes, like Kentucky’s Best, are favored by many in KY (where prices are already lower) because of their lower costs without sacrificing quality flavor.
Then of course, buying your cigarettes on-line versus the local higher priced outlets can save you hundreds if not thousands per year.
Quitting is always an alternative but like many reading this Blog, you enjoy smoking but would just like to make it a little more affordable.
As with many things in life, you always have alternatives to consider. You can buy your premium brand cigarettes from a local outlet, you can buy your premium brands online and save consideraby, you can try a Discount or Generic brand until you find something to your liking. Whatever you decide to do, be a smart shopper and take advantage of Kentucky, North Carolina or South Carolina prices without having to travel there to do so.
Buying cigarettes on line is smart shopping and a great way to save money. Do it today!
When people used to ask me that in the 70’s and 80’s I actually got a little offended. I mean, I always sat in the smoking sections of restaurants, planes, airport lounges etc. and felt that I had as much right to smoke as they had a right not to smoke. I used to make a lot of 6-20 hour plane trips all over the world and the thought of going that long without a cigarette was scary.
As the various airlines began to invoke their no-smoking policies, restaurants began banning smoking inside, public buildings yadda yadda, I finally acquiesced that if I am going to be a smoker, I am going to be treated like a second class citizen and forced to go outside, use patches on long flights (or chew lots of nicorette).
Know what? It is not as inconvenient as I might have imagined 20+ years ago. It is now just a part of everyday life. At least I can smoke in the privacy of my home and my home office. Afterall, there are some kingdoms even lawmakers can’t prevent smokers from using….!
