Financial benefits
Stopping smoking isn't about losing something - it's about gaining a lot!
A packet of cigarettes costs around £5.20 so quitting will give a 20-a-day smoker an extra £36.40 a week.
The benefits of stopping smoking soon start adding up ...
- One day £5.20 - a movie rental or a few magazines
- One week £36.40 - a cheap flight abroad or a few CDs
- One month £156.00 - a shopping spree or the monthly food bill
- Three months £468.00 - two weeks in the sun or a new computer
- Six months £936.00 - a family holiday or some new furniture
- One year £1898.00 - a second-hand car or the start of a deposit for a house
And don't forget you'll also save money in other ways. Life, fire and car insurance can all be cheaper when you quit.
