Cigarette smokers who wont buy cartons

[Maclowery]

I've never smoked a cigarette in my life. But, I do drink. You don't see me going into a gas station to buy a tallboy every time I want a beer. No, I buy a damned case of beer, because I know I'll drink it all eventually.

The excuse that buying a carton instead of packs will just lead to more smoking is absurd.

I have so many friends that smoke, and not a single one of them will just admit that it's a stupid habit, and at least save some money buying cartons.

Smoking stands on its own as absurd, but spending more than necessary is just dumb. Dumb dumb dumb.

(this thread inspired by the mention of people waiting for cigarette buyers in gas stations)

(this thread edited to make me look like I knew theywere Cartons not Cases)

They're called cartons, not cases.

Yeah, I was just being a jerk.

[Maclowery]

Hahaha, yeah, cartons. That's what I meant.

I thought cases sounded weird and couldn't think of the right word.

Speaking of smokers, this new law I think is having unintended consequences. Ever since I quit chewing I take every chance I get to inhale second hand smoke. I'm finding that it's actually easier going by a store etc.. for me to do this, because they used to huddle right by the door. Looked odd when I would go out of my way to walk through the haze.

Now, it's out where I can get it easier. Went in the grocery store yesterday and just took a big drag off of some freshly exhaled second hand smoke.

It's not much, but it's all I've got.

I used to pretty much always buy cartons. I knew who had the cheapest cartons of Malboro ultra light 100's each week or month and I'd buy them up so I never had to drive drunk to a gas station to get smokes. Cartons kept me from drunk driving.
