$40 a day for a heavy smoker here.
When I stopped smoking more than 10 years ago I immediately had a surplus of 300 EUR free cash per month. Two packs a day at 5 EUR per pack at that time.
Being healthier, not stinking like a wet ash tray and having more and better sex are other features of stopping smoking.
How did stopping smoking lead to getting to have sex?
More active, more attractive, more fun with harder boner*.
*Seriously. Smoking does something with your blood flow that does not help with erections.
Nicotine constricts blood vessels, and since boners need blood flow it will be harder to get hard, and if you do you won't get as hard.
Wow that's insane, even if it's "just" about $20 in USD for the cheapest packs at $30 NZD.
Basically prepaying your chemo.
Are the taxes even earmarked to healthcare?
No silly, it's your lungs and heart, not your ears
No, that's just what I say to people who gripe about it.
in Austria you can still get them for around 6 bucks. i recently got a pack in Macedonia for €2.50
Wow! Is there a big black market for cigarettes in NZ? And have these prices lead to a lower consumption?
Yes to both, it has unfortunately led to an increase in crime, because they're so readily stolen. It has definitely led to a decrease in smoking as well, as a lot of smokers quit for financial reasons.
It's perfectly legal to grow your own, interestingly enough, but not many people do.
Growing it isn't easy. Also you need to dry them a long time.
buries like 20 cigarettes
sprays water on the mound
by spring I'll be rolling in the dough!
When the filter tree grows instead of the nicotine plant you'll be looking a fool
Not really a black market for cigarettes here but you can grow your own tobacco legally if you really want to go down that road. Smoking tobacco in younger generations is very rare but vaping on the other hand is very popular. The government was touting a "smokefree by X" date that kept moving back as the dates came closer.
