$$$$$

I should be writing a 5 page essay for my english class, but I ended up figuring out how much money I have been spending on cigarettes. One of the reasons I quit is to stop wasting money - it has become so expensive to by cigarettes. Usually, a pack of 20 Camel Menthol Silver cigarettes cost me on average $8.50. So What does that all add up to?

Per day: $3.00
Per month: $90.00
Per year: $1,085

So just assuming that I spent an average of $7.00/pack over the course of three years, I spent approximately $2,875. That's a whole lot of money right there. What could I have done with all the money wasted on cigarettes? Save it, for one. Travel somewhere exciting. Rent, gas, utilities, clothes, a nice camera. The possibilities are endless. And all the more reason to get through these first few days.
