Default How long can you last?

If you stopped buying cigars today *gasp, not that!* how long could you last with your current supply?

My wife asked me this question this morning and I can easily say I'd never really thought about it. If I stopped today, I could probably last 4-5 years at my current rate of smoking.

Damn.....interesting question. I guess I would last a few months, but definitely not in the years category.

I figure I smoke about 45 a month, one a day during the week and 2-3 a day on the weekends. At that rate I could probably sustain my habit for about 5 months

About the same at my current rate. So much for my plan of 2-3 a week when I started this 7 mos ago.

Default Re: How long can you last?

Well, lets see at about 3 - 4 a day, not counting herfs and gifting, maybe about 5 -7 months.

Actually, I had thought about this subject a while ago, and that's one of the reasons I started to smoke my pipe again.

I had to reduce my cigar budget, since my oldest son moved back home cuz he couldn't afford his apartment anymore, when he got laid-off in December. Plus an extra car payment each month = a lot of cigars!

Probably 3-4 years at my current consumption rate. But I've been getting very clever at creating new smoking opportunities!

Hmmm... It is strictly a guess but I would say a couple of years as I have been smoking a good bit lately.... probably in the neighborhood of 20 or so a week.
