Just cigars now.

Gave up cigs a few years ago. The last time I smoked a pipe must have been back in the mid seventies. Trying a pipe again has crossed my mind on occasion, but I think I'll probably stick to cigars from here on out.

Smoked for 15 years but it was killing me. I stopped 3 years ago. Cigars are damaging also but I average 2 every 3 days rather than sucking 20 or so down in a day. Better for my asthma.

Yeah, it sucks. I bought a bunch, but my B&M still has two cubes in the back room and will sell them to me for $1.99 a pack whenever I want them. Like I said I have one now and then, so I should be good for a while fortunately. But I'll miss them.

I'm still fairly new to cigar smoking and I only do it on the weekends. I love it and am still testing the cigars to find the best.

Finding "the best" is a Quixotic dream, but good luck to you!

Re: Do you use other nicotine products?
 
first thing I smoked was a cigarette. That was back when I was like 15. I maybe smoked 5 packs of them in my whole life. But I always was interested in cigars. I have tried chew before and had a good experience with it. But I stick with cigars now days and I try to limit myself to no more than 3 cigars a week.

Cigars were harder to get when I wasn't old enough to buy tobacco because I didn't know anyone who smoked em. But It is all I am into now that I am 18.

good luck on quitting the cigs. i've been there, it's really hard to do. stay strong!

You are now as free as you will ever be. But you have to stay away from your triggers. Mine was weed. I quit very effectively
many times, and had no need to ever start up again. But if I ever went anywhere knowing that I would be smoking a joint or
taking home weed, I would get some cigs. One called for the other. 6 or 8 months of smoke-freeness down the tubes.
For many, social alcohol is the trigger. Could you stay away from it? That doesn't mean you will go back to smoking, but
you will be tested like you can't believe. Patches, gum...all that crap is useless. You only need to stop, and show some
backbone, and stay away from triggers for a while.

Re: Do you use other nicotine products?
 
I voted "Yes, other products." I use nasal snuff several times per day, and smoke an occasional pipe, but mostly I smoke cigars. Never smoked a cigarette.

keep it up Scott!! I have been cigarette free for 7 months now and it is easier than you can ever imagine. It is all a mental game. Pm me if you ever need any advice or support

Re: Do you use other nicotine products?
 
I've used most kinds of tobacco at one time or another...

Started smoking cigarettes in the military...quit after about 5 months as I found it rather pointless and I didn't really enjoy it, it was more of something I just did to get out of work for a bit and BS with some of the guys.

I chewed in the military as well. Did it at tech school, passed the time in the dorms with a dip in (broke a couple of the rules in the dorms...) again it was purely social. Quit after tech school.

I occasionally will smoke hookah with a few friends, but it's a pretty irregular thing. I'm not a huge fan, but I don't hate it either.

I've used snus. I kind of enjoyed it, and I may buy some more in the future...

I use snuff in the autumn/winter. I also talk my friends into trying it, most of them like it. I have to thank ReplicantArgent and ScottishSmoker for getting me into the world of snuff. I'll be ordering some more of it soon, seeing as its starting to get to be that time of year again.

I have a decent collection of pipes, and I usually smoke them in the cooler months. My piping has been kicking up again, and I like it :tu

Been smoking cigars for about the last three years. Had a lot of fun with it, met a lot of good people through it, one of my better decisions of things to do in the last three years. I don't intend to quit, ever. Although my smoking has dropped a bit since I've gone into the military, I still have a nice stockpile, and I very much enjoy the hobby.

Why wouldn't I? ;)

Re: Do you use other nicotine products?
 
Anything and everything!!! Gotta love the taste of a nice cheek or Red or a lip once in a while. Cigs a few times a week, and a pipe about every 2 or 3. What can I say? I love my tobacy ;)

Cigars are my thing though. The others are just when I can't have a cigar or I'm in the mood for them which is usually not too often.

Re: Do you use other nicotine products?
 
No to cigarettes, chew baccy, and snuff...but, I have smoked a pipe before in the past. I haven't had a bowl in a long time...maybe I should spark one up again.

Re: Do you use other nicotine products?
 
I've cut back drastically with cigars because of where I live, then picked up with cigarettes. >_< I've done the e-cigs and they help with cig cravings (usually at work or driving.) I've never gotten to the pack-a-day smoker status so the e-cig is more of a toy than anything else. It's more of a e-hookah because the "juice" I have is fruit and "Red Bull" flavored. :su

Re: Do you use other nicotine products?
 
I voted 'Yes, other products (chew, etc.). '

Cigars in the summer and the pipe when it gets too cold to smoke outside. Been smoking a pipe on & off for 'several' years. New to cigars this summer. Tried chew once. Never again!! Tried cigs for a week when I was in high school, didn't like it.

Re: Do you use other nicotine products?
 
I haven't smoked cigarettes in almost two years. I still use Cope occasionally, but other than cigars, it's mainly the briar and snus when I'm at work.

Just bought my first pouch of Workhorse chewing tobacco. Kind of like it, but the oral cancer also spooks me a bit.

Starting in on pipes too, but chew is easiest for me indoors.

Grab some Redman Gold Blend or Beachnut... they're the best of the chew. They have that sweet, raisiny flavor :) Yum!

I voted Cigars only, but really I used to smoke cigarettes a LONG time ago. I wasn't addicted though so I don't know if it counts.

I smoke a pipe on a very rare occasion but don't own my own.

Tried chewing tobacco a long time ago and didn't like it that much.

Good luck with quitting the coffin nails. :tu
